I went there to get my tires changed by my wonderful mechanic Octavio. He is professional and talented. I love this prestation.
⚠️ IF I COULD RATE 0 STARS I WOULD. THEY PUT THE PRES IN PRESTIGE‼️ DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE WHAT SO EVER. THEY TOWED MY CAR WRONGFULLY AND IN THERE JUNKY LOT FILLED WITH EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN, I NOW HAVE A LEAK IN MY TIRE. PULLED OUT OF THEIR SLOPPY DISGUSTING LOT AND MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS ON WHICH WASNT ON BEFORE ( PROOF ). THEY ARE RUDE, THEY BORDERLINE DEMAND YOU TO PAY CASH & IF THEY CANT FORCE U, THEY ONLY ACCEPT 2 TYPES OF CREDIT/BANK CARDS. EVERYONE WHO WORKS THERE SEEMS ANGRY AT THE WORLD, ECT. I COULD GO ON FOREVER. DONT USE THEM EVEN IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT‼️
My bf car was parked and they opened it just to say it was put on wrongly and i went tout my bf to see he put the pass on right and he did you can clearly see it and they opened his car to change his visitor pass just to get paid. they love to stealyour money worse people who tow and they put his car on top of a brake parlecircle that could ruin his car w one tire up and the rest down worse people ever they even tried to lock us up inside the towing cuz we were taking pictures and he didnt want us to take pictures on top of that they wanted to lock us up inside their towing parking 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
The owner there is direct forward, good and when my car was towed because of an error in strathmore house appartments he worked with it and had it dropped of so I didnt have to come pick it up in a tropical storm but the female phone staff that I spoke to tho could work on there manners! The other guy I spoke to at first was cool and very polite! They are supposed to drop it off here soon so stay tuned for update!
So this company had all its calls to two different numbers forwarded to my cell number. After the 10th call and getting a call from the police i had to call my cell carrier and of course they couldnt do anything to reduce the number of calls i was getting. You guys suck
If I could give zero stars or negative stars I would 100% stay away from this place at all costs. If they ever tow your car, make sure to look at the undercarriage as well because when a tow truck lifts your car there is always a possibility that damage may occur while your car is being lifted. Trying to get a hold of the manager or a supervisor forget about it there’s no management in this place whatsoever no one knows when the Manager is scheduled to work. The receptionists is not the problem here it’s the manager on how he or she runs the business. I have filed a damaged claim with them and waited the next day to hear back only way for a manager to contact you is if you have filled out a claims form. So I did that I got in contact with some lady I’m guessing she is a supervisor I don’t know she didn’t tell me much. She told me to text her photos of where the damage is and so I did and out of coincidence I have photographic evidence of how my car looked the day before my car got towed so I put that on there as well I sent her before and after pictures of my car. To my surprise I got a text back saying “The claim is denied after looking at the before and after pictures the car seems to be a different car” I laughed my butt of when I got that! So now I am at the point where I have to file a claim under my own insurance and pay a deductible for what something was not my fault. They towed my car there is damage and how do I know there is damage you may ask? Well when I started to make turns my car makes a weird noise that it didn’t use to do before it got towed. I looked under my car and sure enough there was damage done. It’s one thing getting towed but it’s another when you get towed and your car that you worked your butt off for has damage now.
I called to have a car towed out my reserved spot that I pay for at 5pm and at 9pm they still have not come to tow the car & stopped answering the phone.
Nancy and Nicole are scammers and lack professionalism. Nancy, the front desk representative, was not wearing a face mask, even though the world is facing a global pandemic, named COVID-19. Also, she repeatedly refused to give her full name. Upon repeated questioning, Nancy finally said, her last name was Cruz. More than likely that is a lie. Then, I asked Nancy, what is the full name of your manager? Nancy expressed, she did not know her managers full name. Nonsense! While trying to retrieve my car a random black heavy-set man in a older model rusty red car crossed the street and blocked it with his car and stayed until I had paid and was granted access into the parking lot. After I was allowed entry into the parking lot the unidentified person left. Unfortunately, I did not take a photo of the unidentified person. However, I feel threatened and I will be contacting higher authority.
I had the residence sticker but my car was towed because I parked at the visitors parking 🙃 and when I contacted them tje customer service was worst very Rude and unprofessional
I got off a recorded line with the most disrespectful individuals. How dare people who have no business working in customer service, tow cars and answer phone calls to deal with people ? This man was a complete terror. He argued with me over the phone and proceeded to tell me that “in this corona” epidemic they can accept my payment via cash, credit etc. your business practice is horrendous and despicable. This man deserves to lose his job for addressing customers the way he did. I can only imagine how he speaks to other clients. I hope you’re able to listen to all his “recorded “conversations he had with other ppl. Not everyone should be an employee
Every time we contact them they are incredibly rude but Im sure thats an industry standard. One time they said we had to have cash to pick up the car!I gave an extra star for Dean. Hes the nicest guy and deserves a raise because hes the only good employee there. This ones for you Dean! Thank you for making my bad day just a little better
Only gave one star because you cant put none. This place is corrupt and the people are rude and deceitful. My brothers car was illegally towed from a visitor spot with a valid visitors pass hanging from the mirror. There is a group of 5 visitor spaces that end by the trash can. He was parked in the right end space. Behind the first visitor space on the left there is a sign that says visitor parking only and a arrow pointing right. The last 5th space has the word visitor faded but the sign still specifies that it is. With picture evidence they still made us pay to release the car which cost $168. After reading all the comment Im sure this place is tax scamming or something because we were informed cash or money order only because the machine was down too. This is a common complaint for over a year now. Theyre rude and taking advantage of the fact that people need there car and the price rises daily. Never associate with this place.
Opportunist
These guys towed my truck for not parking visitors parking when I had a parking pass. They control the parking spots in various apartment complexes around Gaithersburg and only have a certain number of spots available when they are filled you get towed. How convenient and the POS they have working for them are the rudest and arrogant people you will meet. If you are thinking about hiring them dont. If you are a company that uses you might want to change towing companies. I cant give negative stars or I would.
If I could give 0 stars I would. THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. Dispatcher was rude, screamed at me, and called me names. Only good thing was the man at the lot who was very professional and understanding.
This isnt my car, but this does not look safe, and is probably really bad for the wheel bearings, suspension, and steering components. The driver should have placed a wheel dolly under the front axle to prevent it from pulling to the side like this. I owned a Sequoia and know for a fact there is a locking steering column, so the wheels were already turned like that when they hooked this up to the truck.July 23, 2018 on the ICC around 10:45pm, if this is your car I feel for you.
My car had its the complex sticker on it. And they still towed my car for unspecified reason.. i called and they said they were there and when i got there.. no one was there to attend me... what a waste of time.. smh...
Please to everyone who reads this, please file all complaints to the county so we all can get our money back and file a class action lawsuit against them for aggressive towing. I have pictures and videos of there aggressive predictorial acts.
I believe this company has some commission based contract with Congressional Towers and Rollins Park Apartments. These apartments have merged parking areas and new comers gets their car towed despite having parking permit stickers.
Crooks and thieves. Two times our cars have been taken from our own parking spot in the middle of the night. Each time the correct permits were displayed (have pictures) but the driver “failed to see it”. There is no one attending the store and we had to wait at least hour each time until someone returned during their business hours. Refused to look at pictures or let me show the tag and made us pay them for stealing our cars. Corrupt and illegal business. Based on the other reviews I can’t fathom why BBB hasn’t shut this down.
Its was a bad experience to much complicated for attention to the public
This guys came in handy My car had a flat tire they help me fix the tire
If you need tow company call anyone but PRESTIGE TOWING! This company illegally towed my wifes car ( with a parking permit),for legally parked car in and an apartment complex for no reason! They will be dealt with an attorney !
So unprofessional... they didn’t take any type of card payment and on top of that you had to bring exact change because they didn’t have change. I was told that the office was opened at 7:00 and no one was there. What kind of company allows there employees to be late and not even prepared for payments. I’m furious. Not because they towed my car but because of the way it is run.
Car was towed when LEGALLY parked in a visitor’s spot (in front of a sign saying visitor, with the word visitor painted on the spot) within twelve hours. $140 CASH to get it back less than 14 hours after it occurred. Never returning to this apartment complex (Congressional Towers) to visit anyone. Scum company. Car was scuffed in the process. Never, EVER, parking where I see signs that this company could be operating.
TOWED MY CAR FROM PLACE OF RESIDENCE WHEN I HAD A STICKER JOHANNA LUNA MANAGER THEN TAKES THE KICK BACK
They towed my guest car away after 3hours of being parked and with a parking pass. TERRIBLE. If I could give them a 0 I would. At least when Morton towing and recovery they we’re willing to work with. The lady that answered the phone was rude and hung up on me. Called back and asked for management and was just as rude. Very unprofessionalism.
We call them and they said we can pick up our cars even when they we note supposed yo tasince and when we get there, nobody was in the place and when we call again, they said we have to wait 10 more minutes until they het there. They have not show up and I has been more than 30 minutes waiting. Bad customer service!
Negative 5 Stars. My friends car was towed last night from an apartment complex. They tried to back date it to the week before and wanted a money order to pay them. Illegal and shameful company. Never use them.
If youre going to get extorted this is the place. Fast & friendly!
No wonder they only have one star reviews...Rude and unreasonable.Towed my car from my home and didnt want to listen to anything I said unless I pay them.
My car broke down, they were there in less than 15 minutes. Great, outstanding customer service. Cant complain about pricing either, will call again and refer!
The people here are so rude and unprofessional, its no wonder they work a dead end job. One of the guys was rude as hell over the phone but of course once i got there was smiling and said have a good day. This place is terrible.
They stole people all the time. They took my car from the visitor spot at Gaither’s House Apartments, in Gaithersburg/ MD due to a “Visitor Violation” whithout any reason. The rule at notice plate is clearly about visitors are able to use the visitors spot for one night. I parked my car there for the first night and they took it at the same night. I went there and they treat me really bad and said there’s nothing they can do to release the car without a payment. So I paid $128,00 and got my car back to the condo. I made a complaint to the Condo’s manager and she apologized for the inconvenience and called immediately to the Towing Company Manager to refund me. So they asked me to go there again to make the credit card refund. That’s was so frustrating! They do it all the time with all the people, making easy money and don’t care about the condominium parking rules.
WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE. Zaim is the worst. Would give 0 stars
Spend some money on lottery before calling this guys! You really need it! They are professional in winching out your car as well as your valet. No kidding.On Sat Feb 21 when we had almost 6-8 inches of snow, I stuck on Eldwick & Falls Road in Potomac. I was still on the main road but impossible to move forward. Initially they told me the rate for winching out would be $125, and when I asked also for towing my Passat to my place (half a mile away), they said $175 (we make it work. He said). After making to my place (took almost 7 min), he charged me $325.I did complain, but since I was out to get medicine for my 15 months toddler, paid the amount, postponed the complain for their costumer service. Which literally does not exist.Making the story short, I called their office the day after, and all the weekdays after that. no success at all. So I am suggesting if you were in similar situation, be careful, do not panic and simply skip Prestige Towing & Recovery.
Prestige Towing is a predatory towing company that targets cars with visitor parking stickers inside apartment communities. We visited our friend who recently moved into 17 Barkley Apartments last night. Prestige Towing & Recovery illegally towed both my car and another friend’s car who was parked beside us from the level 2 parking garage despite our prominently displayed visitor parking stickers. No notice was provided by Fairfield Residential or the towing company. 48 hour notice is required in Montgomery County. Prestige Towing damaged both of our cars and is now claiming that the damage was already present. Prestige sent us a photo of my damaged car (deep scratch on the front driver side) and managed to include the lift marks left in the parking space asphalt from their tow truck. Our cars were parked there a maximum of three hours (8-11PM). My insurance company has been contacted, and it is my hope that someone from the office will take responsibility and make things right.
I was insulted by the employee that had the shift today of 4/4/19 at 11:55pm. she said she couldn’t understand me just cause i’m latino and called me a B*tch after i paid. i was born here, english is my 1st language and i know my rights. this needs immediate attention to the racist remarks, it is very upsetting that type of behavior is not what i expect from a company. this is something that i want brought to the managements attention because she would not provide me with there information.
I don’t even want to give them a star, the woman at the front was rude. Had so much attitude. My fiancé and I are not trying to cause problems ever, with her attitude it was really hard to hold back. We got our car towed in the parking garage of our apartment complex...we have been living and parking there for the past 2 years! Ridiculous.
Scammers looking for a reason to tow your car & then demand you pay them a pound of flesh to release it. People like this deserve to be shot to death with a shot gun. Someone do us a favor and dismember the criminals at Prestige so at least they get some real prestige in death.
Car was towed because I made a mistake in where I parked. Not their fault. HOWEVER** My brand new 2017 Impreza was damaged during the process of the tow. Caused a $50 repair to have to be made. Afterwards they absolutely refused to foot the bill. They said we cant speak to the condition of your car prior to moving it. I can tell you, my 1 year old car was in near perfect condition. Im meticulous with the maintenance of my vehicles. The customer service was hot garbage, and very unprofessional.
My car was towed with the sticker of my neighbor on it! This guys stole money from the people just cause they want! Very por service for pick it up my truck at the yard and also they are very unprofessionals!!!! Definitely is not recommended!!!
The owner is amazing! They have a job to do also.
My boyfriend visiting basically live with me at my apartment complex.. In order for his car not to be towed. I asked the leasing office for a parking pass for him, a temporary parking pass. He got his car towed within two times within a week. THIS TOWING PLACE SUCKS LIKE BYE FELICIA
Whats worst then getting ur car tow! Getting it back all damage n the owner dnt take responsibilities for his employees action. Yall garbage i hope u get shut down u fraud
My brand new car was towed by these ppl and they unprofessionally mishandled my car on November 5 2018..i have pictures the night I picked up my car mind u brand new never been towed or anything...sooo i pick up my car pay 142 bucks to see that my cars bumper is loose so I had an appointment to have routine maintenance done wen I get a call from the dealership asking if my car was in an accident I said no went in and they showed me the extensive damage that prestige towing did to my car...ive called numerous times even have the owners name STEVE JONES so Im still waiting on a call back from him..so i call do find out what they are gonna do I was told by the secretary that STEVE JONES said that since it was 2 weeks ago they didnt do it...WELL WHO THE HELL ELSE HAS BEEN UNDERNEATH MY CAR..EVERYONE HERE IS UNPROFESSIONAL AND STEVE JONES SHOULDNT BE THE OWNER OF NOTHING IF HE CANT FOLLOW UP ON THE MISTAKES THAT HIS COMPANY MADE...ive already paid a towing fee why should I pay for the damage they did to my brand new car..AND IM STILL WAITING FOR A CALL BACK FROM STEVE JONES....
This company is a scam. They wont check with owner of assigned parking spot before towing. My brand new car was towed from my own spot within 2 hours after parking it. They demand an insane amount of money to return your car even though its their mistake.
This was the best experience in a bad situation! The owner is very fair.
Worst towing company ever theyre towing folks vehicles illegally and Im calling the better business bureau on them customers service at the lot is very unprofessional and rude no manager or supervisor to talk with.
ABSOLUTELY THE WORST- If i could give a negative rating i would.We had our car towed, and they BROKE our sway bar bushing in the process of towing it. They had a girl in the office and it was only her 2nd day working there. it obviously wasnt her fault but not one manager answered the phone when she called three times to get an answer. Luckily there was a shop near by because we had to drive all the way back to NY in 2 hours. we called the following day and they REFUSED to pay for the broken part of the car that was obviously their fault and on top of that this car was AWD and they towed it with the back wheels down on the ground possibly ruining our transmission. They are just the worst with customer service and clearly shouldnt be operating a tow truck if they cant figure out that AWD need to have all four wheels off the ground.
You have to understand one thing if you deal with prestige towing; they are absolutely vile people. The woman, is incredibly rude and dismissive, even hanging up on me over the phone. In person, much the same.Two cars in one year, one within 40 minutes of parking, and the other within 2 hours, both during hours in which there are plenty of available spaces. I watch the driver, the only other person Ive seen working for this company scanning the parking lot meticulously, and frequently. Its like watching a vulture circling around the lot for its next corpse to feed off of. Its grotesque.On top of not wanting the place I live to have a tow truck patrolling the complex, I dont want a dude in a hoodie strolling between cars with a flashlight, looking for missing parking stickers. In any other circumstance thats when the average person would be terrified of having their car broken into. These guys are quite literally, the sketchiest thing I will EVER see in my neighborhood at 10 PM.They charge $152.00 for the first few days, and they only accepted cash, in the exact amount, with no coin substitutions either. Which means a trip to the ATM as well as having to go to a nearby store to exchange quarters for the TWO DOLLARS they tacked on to make the amount obtuse. All of which I assume is done in an elaborate measure to be as mentally taxing as possible. For those counting, that means Im down 300 and FOUR dollars. All for having the misfortune to live where I live I guess?And all of this sucks, because they make living in my complex a nightmare. In an otherwise great place to live, a company of opportunistic extortionists make living here a nightmare.Now remember, if youve found yourselves in their crossheirs, take a deep breath and remember: After this encounter is over, you will live your life, doing all sorts of things and seeing all kinds of places in your old beat-up, but suddenly beautiful car. All the while she will be stuck in a steel storage container, behind a sloppily constructed bulletproof window, next to a small chain link lot.Knowing this, youll feel blessed in your own life.
I had two cars squeaked by this company and the two are kneaded. I want to know who will pay for this? or Im going to file a lawsuit.
Towed from my residence within 5 minutes loading groceries into my home. I always leave the parking pass on the dashboard however, for 5 minutes out of the year I have lived here posting my pass in my RESERVED parking space, they have the audacity to steal my money and car, damaging my driver door prying it open. Trashy people with an even trashier attitude. I’m sure they won’t stay around for much longer since the system they utilize is illegal.
These people are extremely rude when you call them on the phone to ask them about YOUR car to see if it had been towed by them and how much was the cost to take it out. This guy literally said to my husband in a disrespectful manner LET ME TALK! LET ME TALK! .... I dont know how these people operate or how they still havent been closed down because their customer service sucks ass.... And I believe they are scam artists as well.
Terrible experience. I got a fraud alert from my credit card company soon after I paid for the towing fee using a new credit card. It was a $35 fee to BOOST MOBILE that I never used. Beware if you pay with a credit card.
These people are so rude! Towed my car even tho I had a parking pass up and refused to give me my car back. Toatlly unptofessional. Never a manager available and they will sit where they are told to tow at and will wait until they can start towing so they can chose who they will get first.
-5 Stars (1 star for Post). If you are business or apartment and looking for a towing service look elsewhere. Unprofessional customer service. I had to call the police on scene just to retrieve my credit card and ID. The dude behind the glass was mad at for asking why I had to wait an hour to pick up my car. VERY VERY VERY Disrespectful and unprofessional.
Would give 0!wrongfully and unlawfully tower my car, will release it but won’t pay for my uber.Go to hell!
They need to be shut down by the county, they are constantly towing illegally from my apartment complex!!!
My car tire was flat, I called this company and got a quote. I accepted it but after everything was done, the bill was much more. I hate these hypocrites. Stay away from them.
Prestige Towing has a contract through my leasing office to tow cars thats in violation. The problem with this company is they are scum. The reason being is this Im handicap and Ive been parking in the same Handicap spot for little over a year now. I woke up just to realize my truck was gone; if youve never had your vehicle missing let me tell you its not a great experience. Long-story short Prestige Towing towed my truck from my spot for no reason, because after contacting them the guy at their office went through the pictures just to see my Handicap Placard sitting right there in the picture. Thats not even the sad part; the sad part is when the guy at the office replied ask your leasing office to release your vehicle WHAT!!!!, is this guy okay? Then he said let me call the boss. Ive been waiting and calling, waiting and calling, still no answer. THESE GUYS ARE SOME THIEVES.
These Red Necks destroyed my car! Stay away from these people.
They got my car from my parking spot. I came to get it and they were very rude and unprofessional. I never asked for anything else or gave them a hard time I just wanted to pay and get my car. They need to learn how to treat people.
Rubbish company. Tower my car from a visit park. BTW, I didnt break the rule.
This place is absolutely crap! They are unhelpful dont want to talk to you and are nasty. I would rather have my car towed by monkeys then this place. Stay away
My car was parked in visitor spot. This company screwed up my car! and charged me $130 CASH ONLY. Needs classes on customer service. Crooks! Karma willfind you eventually
They towed my car and damaged the front left light. This is a very greedy company that is desperate for revenue. The attendant also threats me that she would not give me my car!!!
Very corrupt company, and cruel customer service. They towed my car with permit on it. I don’t know why congressional tower and Rollins park apartments use this low rated company. I am very very disappointed on moving in at Congressional Towers.
Improperly towed my car for no permit in a lot that is clearly marked as visitor parking. When I called, the woman was rude and refused to let me speak to a manager or supervisor - then she hung up on me.
Ive at my residence for 18 yrs and was towed because my handicapped tag had fallen. The truck is always always parked in the same space year after year. Very disappointed in the way this was handled.
Unresponsive to towing requests when someone parks in my assigned spot. Whether getting hold of a person or leaving a voicemail, they almost never come out to get rid of the violating car.
Towed me from my place of residence. What a bunch of criminals
Rudest people ever dealt with
Went in to an apartment for 2 minutes to deliver a pizza, came back and the car was towed...
Boooo
100% OK thanks
Towed my car from my residence. damaged my car then took a picture of it claiming NO fault.. been chasing the owner for almost 4 days.. the two women who work there are wild disrespectful and have no customer service
