Who else is having trouble with Cargill getting Paid?

[Grahamp]

I only let them go 5 days before I started to lose it. They were telling me 2-3 weeks to get paid. End of Sept, after I dumped, I shut my truck off in the driveway and after I got the weight ticket I went in the office. Told them them the truck was staying parked there on the scale till I had my money for loads delivered earlier in the week. I phoned my wife while in the office. She was ready to come get me. Area manager girl was there that day too. As we argued she set me up for direct deposit because they couldn’t print cheques there because of the new computer system. They were all out of their offices standing there trying to explain the 2-3 weeks to get paid and that they were driving to Yorkton to get cheques but I wasn’t going for it.

Trucks were pulling up to the probe and I had their main driveway blocked and they had to use the other lane for them to dump.

I had the grain buyer girl on the phone at the same time and she was working with Winnipeg to get a cheque printed that day for me in Yorkton. I had bills that had to be paid and I needed the money. No exceptions.

They are lucky it was a quiet Friday. It was about an hour that my truck blocked the scale before they told me a cheque would print in Yorkton. I drove to Yorkton and had a cheque in hand by 5pm. On Tuesday I picked up a cheque for all the other loads.

Last two weeks it’s been direct deposit in 2-3 days.

This is the most awesome story I have ever read on agriville. You just made things a little better for all of us. Please pm me your address and I will send you a $100 Canadian Tire Card.

You should have taken your scale tickets back. Shown them the weights and said you want your grain back.

I had a dockage issue on flax once. I said I am coming back to get it. The rep said they would have the cheque ready. I said I am on my way with an empty semi...get ready to load me. The flax came home and sold to another grainco with half the dockage taken. Made sure the first grainco knew it. They didn't care.

I run the smallest farm in W. Canada I think. Last spring sold canola to local Cargill, couldn’t have been treated better. Graded #1, picked up cheques after last load.

Small or large doesn't matter they were using the old system last spring get with the times. The new system doesn't work they owe lots of people large small. My Father hasn't got paid for a tandem load of HRS. from last year's crop. the Checks in the Mail.

Do you guys get paid in ten days????
We have to wait 28 minimum
This year a big local grain merchant went bust owing six figure sums to some farmers and thirty million pounds to macquarie bank
Farmers wont get a penny

When the system works the way it is supposed to, you can stop by the office after dumping your last load and get a cheque right away. This would be from the larger grain companies. However because of the new system Cargill is having issues printing a cheque within a month. I asked for a grain cheque to be split with a landlord and was told it would add another two weeks.

Smaller specialty grain buyers, you can expect 7 to 21 days delay.

Richardson here , just wheel around the office
Lady who runs the place makes out a check with a smile

Makes me miss Cargill even less, didn't think it was possible.

post of the year , right here!!!!!!!!
STO for premier!
this is what shoulda been done when they were tearing out rail lines /infrastructure/etc.
especially that last one a year or two ago , they should know better by now

Its 2021 FFS , there should be no reason any grain co registered with the CGC shouldn't be able to write a cheque after the load is dumped. I am not a phucking bank....Thats where you go to borrow money.

First guys starting the economy are farmers and the last guy paid after all his work is done.

Just phucking stupid in this day and age.

[wmoebis]

Has anyone of you guys talked to the CGC? If so who did you talk to and what was their reply?
