I am.standing here to retrieve my vehicle and the attendant keeps plugging away on the computer and phone. He has not said anything. I respectfully tapped on the glass and he said in a minute. I am.sure he is busy, however if I am standing here, you would think I could get in and out. It is as if he could not do more than 1 thing at once. I asked the attendant can he work on 2 cars at once. He says he is handling business right now. And it is taking a minute.
They towed every car on the block. They signs were not very clear and had no number to call. We had to call 911 to find where our car went, and the guy at this place said calling 911 is what you are supposed to do. They have set up a system that requires calling an emergency number for a non-emergency. My guess is they also tow everyone on that block every night too, cause we found it is the one single block next to tons of others free to park in the evenings right next to the busiest bars in midtown. For reference never park in the block caddy corner to unicorn disco club.
As close to legel crime as you can get. Theyll scream and yell at you.
This is the second time you all have towed my car! My car was parked in a no tow away zone in front of my friend house in less then 30 minutes my car was towed away your tow guys are in it for the money! I’ve had enough and will be taking legal action against you guys enough is enough you all will learn to stop playing with people property!!!!!
Terrible terrible company. Towed my car an hour ago after being parked at CVS for 15-20 minutes and being a customer. The lady who answered the phone told me “if I wanted my car back tonight, I HAD to pay”, and proceeded to hang up the phone on me.. unprofessional much? She explained to me it was “after hours”, which is why I was towed, while I was literally standing INSIDE THE STORE WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH HER!!! I have a written note from the manager stating I was a customer there along with the make of my car. I plan on calling back in the morning to speak with the owner/someone in charge, and I shouldn’t have to pay a dime for this inconvenience. Sick people thrive off bringing others down. This company is a perfect example of it.
The lady at the front desk is rude for no reason.. she gets a attitude with u and sees no problem with it, once u get a attitude back it’s a problem she reminds me of the sloth lady from monsters inc. don’t know how she still has a job
They towed my car and damaged the front two wheels. My tires are flat, wheels have been severally damaged by the dragging or towing Im outraged. I called and they had no kind of customer service in trying to resolve this matter or anything. Manager just happens to Never be in office im taking this up to court im outraged.
Came pretty quicc and was very professional. Got me home in no time at all.
Just saw one of their trucks driving extremely fast on Burnett street while towing a car, flew right passed the stop sign.5 minutes later, the same tow truck flys by, but in the opposite direction. And again, drives straight through the stop sign.Tried to get the license plate number, but they were going way too fast.*** Waiting for the owner to respond telling me how much they care about their fellow Houstonians and their safety blah blah blahI wont be surprised when one of their drivers kills someone.
The parking in this area is a scam! A big money racket! So you better watch out where you park! After they get your ride, you get to deal with this rude condescending lady that takes your money! This is just one of the reasons Dallas is a much better place than Houston!
They towed my car. Sad gurl😒
They were nice for the most part worked with us we can help my husband out tremendously is it in his truck out one downfall they lost my keys for a couple of days
Couldn’t be happier with the professionalism and promptness I received during my crazy flat tire situation on I-10! The driver showed up within 10 minutes of my call and within 25 minutes my car was loaded and being towed to the tire shop...and keep in mind it was midnight. So thankful this company ANSWERED (2 others did not) and it all turned out great!!
Showed up Sooooo fast after I ran out of gas in my husbands car. I didnt recognize the gas light warning and I had my newborn which made my anxiety even worse. He even made sure I got my important stuff out of the car hint hint baby bottle 😭. Thank you for sending tow so fast and a compassionate individual who obviously has a family
Never positively rated (or rated in general?) a tow truck company, but last night this place really came through. Cory was the sweetest guy ever, he dropped my roommates BMW off (and even helped us fill out the form to leave it there) and then gave us a ride to our house since it was so late and freezing cold. His kindness was so appreciated and made our entire situation so much better! Highly recommend
Terrible place to ever have your vehicle towed too.The older woman with the white hair wears glasses gives more attention to the showed she watches on her phone then to the service she is to provide .Very difficult to get any work done here in already stressful time .Very unprofessional, of course all this is in my opinion.However, this one star is not for the business rather for her lack of professionalism and over all negligent service.Jeanette A Rash if you’re the owner hope you’re reading this .
I would give them a zero stars but the system doesn’t allow that. My wife parked her car in a lot on Westheimer for a few minutes and was towed. The tow driver inflicted major damage ($2,450 worth) to the undercarriage of her 2016 Honda Pilot. At first, the Manager, Russell was willing to talk to me but after I sent photos and repair quote, he backed out of any prospective liability by claiming the damage was not his driver’s fault. When my wife picked up the vehicle, it was not safe to drive. The damage made a loud train sound from underneath. I’ve read a lot about how this all works, basically someone in one of the shops is probably getting kick backs from the driver to park very nearby and wait for their call. Then the driver rushes over and slams into the car to get it hooked up ASAP and before you see it happening (which is when damage occurs). Then he goes around the corner to hook it up correctly. All of which is a tow license violation. I’ve started the process to try to claim my losses legally and am in the process of filing county and stare complaints. I will also ask for an investigation into the cleaners owner at the lot and Fast Tow. All that said, if you get in an accident please do not select Fast Tow as your provider.
Very tow driver never called me back and was an no show very poor customer service.
Towed even though I parked by and paid for metered parking
Very nice people I never had a problem
I parked in a parking lot for 10 minutes to walk across the street to find my dog. I come back and my car is gone. I had to pay $240 for leaving my car unattended for 10 minutes. EXTREMELY inconvenient and honestly just seems like these tow trucks drive around looking for a quick buck.
CSR on the phone was helpful and driver arrived quickly and delivered my truck to the correct location without any concern.
Super awesome experience..I was booted downtown..after paying 900 bucks and getting the code to unboot myself..i drove straight to fast tow to turn my boot in. The staff was extremely helpful and had me on my way so fast my head almost did a full circle.
I wish that I can put 0 stars!!!! The lady at the office she’s so unprofessional+ the guy who towed my car to my house he was so rude disrespectful he has not training at all they should have better service and drivers if we are paying thm to do the service that they suppose to do!!!!!!
Nothing better to do then tow peoples cars even with owner permission to park there.
My car had a catastrophic failure on 288 before the 59 interchange. So I pulled off onto a side street. I called fast tow and within 15-20 minutes my tow truck driver arrived. The lady that answered the phone was pleasant and helpful. She got all my information and advised the window my driver would arrive during. John, my driver, was courteous and professional. He made sure my car was taken care of and I felt like he really cared about my property. His truck was clean and smelled fresh. He made pleasant and polite conversation with me on the drive to the auto shop. He was courteous and professional with the shop owner. I would recommend this service if you’re in a pinch and need a tow.
This business takes advantage of unsuspecting shoppers on Westheimer. While visiting leopard lounge for only 10 minutes our vehicle was towed. The sign clearly states for Westheimer shopping only... $240 later and dealing with an unprofessional representative at the front window we got our car back. It’s a shame that this place must resort to shady business practices
Im from out of town, they towed my vehicle 1.5 miles from a place where I did not know was a no parking zone. I was inside the building. My vehicle had my phone, purse etc. in it. I know no one and had to walk 1.5 mile through a not so nice part of town and they charged $240 for 1.5 mile tow and 2 hour storage. I am going to ask for a tow hearing and will be contacting Texas Company licensing Department. The receptionist was rude to my young daughter who was trying to find me. This was to date the most horrible experience of my life and I think the amount was extremely high. A normal tow withing 40 miles is $85 - $100. Also, after getting close to the office, I approached one of their trucks for directions. He was busy playing on his phone but managed to point the way. For the amount of money they charged, they could have given a middle aged woman a ride for the remaining 3 blocks. Not good people.
Car died and had to get it towed out of a parking garage. Surprisingly positive experience. Was able to confirm price in advance, which was cheaper than alternatives. If you have to get towed, don’t be afraid to call these guys. Drove with Brian O; quick to arrive and very nice.
Predatory service, decent rates
Towed me from a parking lot I wasnt wrongfully in, within 5 minutes of me parking there. Someone else parking there had seen them swoop out and said they just sit around the corner like vultures because they want that $240 for legally-ish stealing your car.
I HIGHLY DO NOT REFER ANYONE TO GO HERE THEY ARE RUDE AND VERY DISRESPECTFUL OUTRAGEOUS PRICING $200 FOR 5 MILES THATS UNBELIEVABLE!
Noone likes a tow yard, sorry.
They towed one of my company trucks after a wreck and told me they would charge me $100 to get my tools and equipment out. Sounds about right for a tow truck company
The help veterans...
Souless Vultures. I got towed in front of my apt Two Times by them. I hadnt yet made it to the CoH Parking mgmt storefront for a parking permit but Had left a note on the dash saying that I was a resident, with my address, and was STILL towed. My friend was towed also on the 1st occasion, the 1st day I moved in. Even though I showed them the lease, ink barely dried, they were completely non-responsive and super cold without a problem charging me over $300 to get my car out of their lot and it had only been a few hours there!Vultures
Where to start. These pare a rip off. Lady was extremely RUDE. Once you write a review they put a generic answer. Daughters car got towed 5 minutes from their lot. I’m not Disputing she was wrong but, Lesson learned where not to park. $240 to get her truck out? Lady said that’s the MAX the city said they can charge so I guess they charge the max. They have no morals. They take advantage of the loop hole to screw the public. My daughter even said the tow truck driver laughed at her while he was towing another vehicle. They are Pure Vultures. Money is their God. I will be filing with the city. Even if I don’t win I will be tying up some of their illicit cash by having them pay a Lawyer
This is the most fraudulent towing company in all of Texas really. Especially if you’re going shopping on Westheimer. Sit around the corner and wait for you to leave and then illegally take your car and then find out the yard is in 5th ward😂🤡🤡. All the tow truckers are unprofessional seen one steal someone’s car while running for it and it fell off in the middle of the street yea y’all are going to get a call from the police department asking for y’alls licenses. Not only this but when they steal your car they laugh at you, most likely projection from their inner failures and receding hairlines, when I went to pick my car up they didnt even check if I was the owner of my own car so I hope y’all are ready for a big lawsuit.
They towed my car and I caught a lift to pick up my car... Everything took under 30 min. Paid $240...smh
The tow truck driver after my wreck was incredibly helpful and provided me with all the information I needed. However, the window attendant Donna was horribly rude without provocation. I ended up paying a different towing company right across the street just to avoid any further interactions with her.
They tow my car in front of the greyhound in fannin stparked in McDonalds parking lot all i know is there are several people involved in this they already found the way to make easy money and the idea is probably from the owner sooner or later all these people will end up in hell i think they are a organization that hurt good citizens and people should be aware
Fast. Acceptable price.
The professionalism here is horrible! We waited about 45 minutes for them to help us. She took that long to tell the long line that the card machine was not working! They are quick to tow your car but not quick to help you!
I don’t know where to start from, the older lady in the front is extremely rude. Talks to you like you’re there to ask for free stuff, has no manners, does nothing to help you out. I’m extremely upset at how she treated me when she seen that I needed her help and had a couple of questions. She brushed me off and told me to have a good day when I was in the middle of asking her a question. After reading so many reviews on how rude she is, I’m still wondering why is she still working there? I hope she sees the review and comes to realize that the way she treats people and they way she treated me is no way to treat someone that comes to a place looking for help. At the end of the day her job is based on customer service and she does a horrible job at it, if she’s unhappy about her job then maybe she needs to retire or leave.
I was asked, how fast was, fast tow. I parked my car walked off and returned 10 minutes later and my car was gone. They are extremely fast
Please do not park !!! Even if you see the parking box not working they told two customers cars ! But didn’t tow the cook WHO DIDNT PAY BECAUSE THE METER WAS BROKE and we have prof !! And took pictures and videos!! PLATINUM PARKING SAID A TICKET SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN NOT TOW !! I AM TAKING THIS TO COURT !!Update they refunded me !
They answer fast and their process for you to get your vehicle is fast as well. Customer Service or Friendly? Not so much.
This is a terrible service you guys steal cars for s living, pretty barbaric if you ask me. Other than emergency towing you guys are a huge inconvenience.Ok after I talked to the office I found out that fast tow is purely a service. They do not steal cars like other companies. I was just angry they towed my car, I gata admit it was fast AF.
Absolute joke of a place. As per the bulk of the reviews on here, the lady at the window was openly hostile from the moment of our introduction. Was reluctant to provide any information as to why my car was towed (I was parked in front of my house with a visible permit), and after all that she charged me for double what my bill showed. When I pointed this out, she refused to cancel the transaction and told me to come back in several days when the manager would be around to dispute it. A criminal organization, but only a symptom of the larger systemic problem that allows these predators to make money off exploiting people.
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬45 min of storage cost me 245$
These people were so incredibly RUDE. the man towing one car in yelled at us because we were standing there even though my friend didnt know what to do because his car had been towed. We realize why he had been towed but there was no reason for a complete stranger to be rude to us!
Will never use again. Wouldnt give receipt. Not sure if he just made up amount. He hadnt closed his vehicle door before he started asking for payment. Again will NEVER use again.
The only reason they dont a 1 star is because the price was good and the tow driver was courteous. I was told the driver be to me an in 30 minutes when it was actually an hour and 10 minutes later.
Predatory establishment, reasonable rates
Towed safely. Very nice people. Fixed my breaks and went out of their way to accommodate us. Even took me to get pizza!! Very nice people like this are hard to come by. The tow truck driver, Mr Abe was like an angel.
Very professional with top rate equipment and service. Service provided by coordinator Stacey and driver Jesse was exceptional. I would recommend them to anybody that is stranded. Prompt and efficient. towed me from Houston to Conroe in quick time.
We waited for hours for others, but these guys were so nice. We were stuck with a flat in a horrible spot on the freeway.. So grateful
Very professional
Fast—-reliable—-very professional—-thank you for your help
Horrible, the front desk lady was so rude and rolled her eyes when we asked a simple question. Didn’t explain anything just took our id and our credit card. Plus they only had the car for about 40 min and charged us 240$
This people provide the best service, all the bad reviews are due to the fact of one immature Golden spoon fed guy who made a big deal of he’s experience.I hope this clears out any misunderstanding so the owners of this company beware of immature individuals
11:30pm 5/22/19: I just saw a Fast Tow driver doing at least 70 mph at Milam and McGowan, right in Midtown Houston. This is a busy urban area and clearly put people at risk. I called HPD and filed a police report.
Trash company with trash people. Towed my vehicle after parking it with the emergency lights on because she was going into labor. I walked her inside to be comfortable and tried calling 911 for an ambulance. I realized I left my phone in my car charging so I quickly ran outside to my car which was being towed!! They refused to stop or even let me get my phone ! After a half our of arguing, they sped off with my car! I ran back inside to check on my wife, who was in tears because our newborn baby son didn’t make it 😔
We had been waiting for almost 3.5 hrs for Echo towing to pick us up. Our insurance company called them and they were there in 15 minutes. Awesome service!
Good service.
Had my vehicle towed after parking in a lot I was told to park in. There was nothing they could do. VULTURES
Stated did not have any drivers and could not assist me.
I called at 7:30 p.m. Monday to request a tow for the next day and get a price quote. The woman who answered my call was barely audible and had the worse customer service attitude. She may have been having a rough day. After I asked her if I could get a quote she gave me the equivalent of a verbal eyeroll, proceeded to tell me she could not until I have her the milage and by that time, I was tired of talking to her and thanked her for her time and that I would just call another tow company.I hope she has a better day tomorrow. I wont be able to comment on the tow service since I couldnt get past the horrible customer over the phone.
Had 2 blow outside on the freeway and they stopped to assist. Got me to a tire shop and atm. Thank you so much.
Carefully picked up my bricked Tesla and dropped off at service center
Good
Theyve got a deal with he Dog House Tavern on McGowen. No real signs in the parking lot, you park and dont walk in the tavern, they call and tow your car. The attendants at the Fast Tow are rude. These are the worst kind of people. You need a real tow, call someone else.
I had a great experience with the staff ! professional and efficient friendly, I am in the ac and plumbing service biz with trucks that breakthere fast great service ! there my new go to wrecker servicethank you
Excellent service will use again
Parasites is what they are, they towed my car that was parked in front my own business. They only held my vehicle less than 6hrs and charge me $240.
Towed my car quickly off the free way to my house for a very affordable rate
Typical tow company that doesnt care! After paying my $230 she would not let me out of the gate, she just laughed. I had to have houston police respond and threaten theft of service before letting me out 5-10 minutes later!
Sucks to get your car towed. But it happens. These guys are at least open 24 hrs a day, and are really quick when it comes to getting your car back. Terrible business model though. Makes me sad
Would never use these people. Uncaring souls that have no issue leaving a woman and 6 kids that are 2 hours from home on the side of the road...
Horrible Horrible!!!! Rude ass people working there. I dont know how yall live with yourselves.God will punish yall for taking advantage of people. The fat lady at the front window is the worst. Karma will catch up to yall. Beware of this place everyone. To bad i cant give it zero stars like it deserves.
If your car has been towed call them ASAP. They were very kind to me and aside from not accepting card as a form of payment for the drop fee, they helped me get my car back before it got to their lot. They saved me a huge hassle.
They tow. And they are fast.
Needed a Jumpstart, they arrived Quick ....
The attendant at the window was incredibly rude, the service was terrible. The attendant also had her feet up on the desk and was wearing furry house shoes. Horrible service.
Rude never return calls very unprofessional
Line was busy
Added illegal fees. Fee added for cars in lot after midnight. They called it daily charge, But Law says 24 hours not midnight. Send complaints to TX company licensing department
You really dont want my opinion.....
Money hungry scavengers doing anything for a buck! Towed my truck on top of already having a ticket from the city of Houston! Bunch of low life scum! Get a life and a real job!!
Old lady with bad attitude has no customer service they should fire her ASAP
Kept rushing me off the phone prices went up during the day time that doesn’t make sense
Took a while to get there.
Professional and very helpful
Very helpful
Ppl made a young girl wait a long time in the middle of nowhere scary place to be at
Talk phone driving time
Very unprofessional rude people.
Rude lady at the desk.
Not helpful, rude, unsympathetic
