On 9/11/22 it was raining really hard and a few cars got stuck in water, they were towed and given no information. I took my brother to Area Towing in ************ to get his car. We called the number and got no response, I saw a man and asked for information on how to retrieve a car. He was very RUDE and did not take the time to speak to us, he said he was busy towing cars (I think he was the owner). He got into the tow truck and pulled off after telling an elderly man (*****- a Veteran) to GO F*CK HIMSELF. I saw another man who told me the office is closed right now you have to come back tomorrow morning at 9am. I told him what the other man said and thanked him for taking the time to tell me the office is closed. So, the next day there was so much running around because we weren't given the correct information over the phone. Basically, everyone who was towed had to get a Release Form from the Police Station. We had to pay in cash and the *** at Area Towing had a $20 fee (no signs), the lady also didn't have any change SMH. After we paid the lady says the car was "drowned out" and wouldn't start. I asked, DID YOU CHECK? Then we had to pay again for a tow, which we could've taken the money out all at once had she told us before we used the ***. When we received the car it was all scratched up and had paint or something on it, the key was jammed in the keyhole and also had grease. However, the car DID START and we could've driven it off the lot. The driver said he drove it onto the flatbed. Our experience with Area Towing was HORRIBLE!!! I hope we never have to deal with them again.

********** police ordered for my truck to get towed because it was parked for 3 days. I had no idea it was parked outside it was suppose to be in a shop at **************** in **********. When I found out my truck had been towed I had to pay $1300.00 I called to speak to the manager hoping he **** drop some fees. The secretary never would allow me to speak to anyone in charge. She was very rude. They never sent me a certified letter to inform me my truck was in the pound. I got a letter 2 days after I paid the ****. This is the worst company. They didnt try to listen to me they wouldnt take any calls.They tore my front bumper up had a rope tied to it. Be aware when you have problems with your vehicle in he west-suburbs
