Dear C.H. Robinson Billing Team,
We are writing to you regarding a billing discrepancy found during our audit of freight bill 6246585626 for load 0447166. Your invoice for $5,111.99 exceeds our expected amount of $4,985.09, resulting in an overcharge of $126.90.
Our audit indicates that the fuel surcharge was billed at $0.72/mile (49.0%) instead of the contracted rate of $0.66/mile (44.9%), accounting for a $126.36 variance. We will be short-paying this invoice by $126.90 to match our contracted rate.
Please review this discrepancy and issue a corrected invoice or credit for the difference. We appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Northvale Freight Audit
