After the bankruptcy of TCR, the receivers' task to settle the sale or restart of business units is becoming more and more difficult every day. Staff are also now concerned after the conclusion that the payment of their wages by the UWV is not certain for the coming month.

contracts automatically to other carriers

Clients themselves are looking for alternatives for the execution of their transport and are not waiting for offered alternatives. All valuable contracts within the bankruptcy estate have since disappeared, so that there will soon be not much more left than an empty bankrupt company full of debts with suppliers, UWV, insurers, leasing companies and the tax authorities.

“It is going very fast, when I look at the trip planning today I barely see 60 trips. The contract rides have almost all disappeared. Clients are flocking to the journeys, ”says a permanent employee on the schedule.

For the Brabant disability care organization Prisma, which depended on TCR for transport to and from the daytime activities, a solution found it. Taxi Korthout from Tilburg took over the buses and staff from the bankrupt carrier. Every week, TCR provided an average of 4000 trips for Prisma, which assists clients with disabilities in Brabant.

Health insurer CZ previously took the initiative to delete TCR as a carrier. According to the curator of TCR, CZ initially wanted to terminate the contract with the Middelburg company as of February 10. CZ said it had sufficient alternatives to accommodate the transport.

Earlier this week it was announced that Citax will take over the student transport for Zeeland Flanders from TCR. Connexxion takes over the trips for Wmo, day care, youth care and student transport for the municipalities of Borsele, Goes, Kapelle, Noord-Beveland and Reimerswaal.

Note passenger transport from Ede, Ede, took over the student and youth transport on Walcheren from the bankrupt TCR after the spring break.

February wages only one month later

After the bankruptcy of transport company TCR guaranteed that the wages of the drivers would be paid by the UWV, but there seems to be a hitch. The agency will only start processing the data of all TCR employees at the beginning of March, which means that they can only expect their wages from February in the course of March.
