I contracted with Fast Pick Logistics to transport freight for them. When I talked with them they gave me the impression that they were large and had been in the business for some time. They advertised in one of the truckers magazines for owner operators. When I went down to North Miami Beach to meet with them they were and are located in a little dinky office in a little run down strip mall. After I had transported several loads for them and my pay was due they kept putting me off. Not answering their phone, saying that they were working on getting my pay into the bank. After several weeks and about $ 6,000 owed they, Ronnie Hazan, who says he owns the business, took a company check to my bank, Bank of America. Soon as I left town he put a stop payment on the check. I assume he did not have the funds in the bank.
Several things you should be aware of. Ronnie Hazan, who prides himself on being a businessman, is no businessman. He, in my opinion is a con artist. I have heard from a couple of other contractors that he did the same thing. He says he has other offices on the west coast. Right!
His office was staffed by Eli Abitan and himself. Probably his wife helps out but they are not a professional business. All the pictures and information on their web site has been extracted and pasted to make them look like something other than the nickle and dime operation they are
All they do is broker freight as a third party, and they do a poor job of that. Rates are rediculous and he doesn't have a clue what he is doing.
He leases junk trailers, his office is trashy and very disorganized. He did on several occassions ask me to transport freight in an illilegal manner, which I had a problem with and will be addressing with the FDOT.
He says he is a religous J* and practices his faith.By his actions alone you know that is not true either. If any contractors/drivers have had dealings with Fast Pick Logistics, Ronnie Hazan or Eli Abitan please contact me at.
I have contacted the Better Business Bureau (Dade County), the Florida Attorney Generals Office in Tallahasse, the State's Attorneys' Office in Dade County and am in the process of talking with the Florida Department of Transportation.
Several of us contractors/drivers are filing a class action law suit against Ronnie Hazan and Fast Pick Logistics. Our intent is to retrieve our money and put Fast Pick Logistics out of business for their fraudulent operations. If you would like to be added to the list please contact me. It will not cost you anything. Attorney fees will be included in the law suit and paid by Fast Pick Logistics.
If you have any information on the brokers that they used to get you freight please forward that to me also. We are contacting as many as we can to let them know the business practices of Fast Pick Logistics
