Predatory towing company at its best. My son’s truck was towed because it was parked in a parking lot of a store he shops in frequently. We are working with police and a lawyer to see what can be done. $250 cash for a predatory tow is robbery. There are laws about towing in Charlotte from 7am to 7pm. This place is a disgrace to the good towing companies out there.
This is supposed to be illegal, but they put up private property signs so they can basically do whatever they want. rest assured, this is meant to rob you, and serves no productive purpose other than to rob you.that said, the owner is the worst person i have ever met in my entire life. he has no redeeming qualities. he robs from the poor and buys fancy trips and chrome rims.it makes me physically sick that people like him exist
Tim the owner is the worst person I’ve ever encountered. He needs to be put out of business. Towed my car after it was in an empty lot for 45 minutes. The spot i was in had no signage to deter me from parking. He refused to give me my car back because the registration was in my dads name. I had to call the cops to get it. He threatened me and said if I call the cops he will charge me 350 to get it out. Get this scum bag out of Charlotte
I understand that there are circumstances where you might need a tow, but I strongly urge you not to select United Towing. They make up numbers on the spot, and constantly increase their prices. They are extremely unprofessional. They left me feeling extremely violated.My encounter with James was the most unprofessional encounter I have ever had. He wrongfully towed my fathers car. He could not provide proof that he had a right to tow the car. The signage at the place was unclear, and as a resident I was told I could park there. His thuggish behavior, of locking himself in his car and not answering our legitimate questions such as what authority they had to tow the car required us to have to call the police. The Charlotte police however apparently have no authority over private property and towing maters which is very unfortunate, as James was essentially stealing my fathers car.
Came to our community where they do not have a contract anymore at midnight and took the vehicle. Our management called them telling them to release it in the morning. After work we tried to pick it up. They are making up extra charges and now wont release it because they failed to tell us we need proof of title. I still owe on my vehicle and dont have the title yet! DO NOT USE THIS UNPROFESSIONAL COMPANY! The James & owner talk down to women and are unprofessional. Im fillng a civil lawsuit and reporting to the BBB!!
I wish I could give them 0 stars because that’s what they deserve.NEVER call these people. They don’t deserve business from anyone.
How this place is in business with all the horrible reviews and reports to the BBB is beyond belief!! This guy is feeding off unsuspecting people and fueling his ego with temporary power. Shame Shame Shame to the shopping center and authorities for allowing this unethical behavior to continue and laws not put in place to protect consumers who patron YOUR town. This business is exploiting unsuspecting customers and exploiting the IRS demanding CASH ONLY! Crooked business. Beware
Parked at my own work and got towed. Still having to pay to get my car back. This should be completely illegal, Im actually dumbfounded.
Anti-predatory towing laws arent comprehensive, and this is the result.Dont use them for any real towing services. I doubt theyre capable of providing them anyway.The owner, Tim, is a proud thief hiding behind technicalities.He operates next to a college campus, and steals exclusively from people who have nothing. Its disgusting, and hopefully just a matter of time before he steals from someone with the power to fight back.
By far the most predatory towing company in Charlotte. The tow drivers are incompetent and I seriously question if there is any sort of logically functioning brain in their heads. United Towing preys 24/7 in our neighborhood towing unsuspecting guests at any opportunity they have. When they release your car 9 times out of 10, the incompetence of the tow driver will result in something being damaged, in this case the fog lights of my car were broken and left dangling, after the tow driver put them back in place. The law needs to crack down on this company and their ridiculous malpractice.
$200 because I left my car at Starbucks for an hour? The owner, Tim, is a spineless weasel. The technicalities he hides behind were designed to protect people from predatory towers, not the other way around.
James is the name of a monster that towed my car without authority. My subdivision does not allow towing. The HOA and Management ended their contract with United Towing.And yet James, the monster, that works at United Towing towed my vehicle at MIDNIGHT.We are doing a civil case against this monstrous looter.
The real address is 2323 Newberry St. By law they have to be available within 15 minutes so they give out a fake address. If anyone wants to get these guys Im in. What they do is illegal. Go to the magistrate and file a criminal complaint for violating the city towing ordinance. Also consider filing in small claims court.
He towed the rental car from the residential property where I live. Then he was screaming on the phone and was completely unprofessional.
If there was only a choice to give no stars to this company...
Predators theyre trying to tow my husbands work truck for parking at the apartment complex theyre working on right now. I need to go to to doctor in teo hours and theyre lying saying that my husband wasnt working at the complex.
Illegitimate, predatory towing company that the law hasnt caught up to.
Horrible service, he over charged my sister. Didn’t even have the car off the ground.
Purely a pure profit company, unjustified towing to make a quick buck at your expense
Is it legal to ride through neighborhoods looking for vehicles to tow???? Making up prices and being unprofessional is not tolerated. I will get to the bottom of this...
Predatory and illegal towing company
