    My parking sticker was in my window shield. They towed my car inspection sticker and everything up to date. The sticker is set up where it's placed in the window and won't be removed. They obviously unlocked my door when my car was in their possession and removed my sticker and placed it on the floor on my car by te mat. My dashboard is deep so it wouldn't have fell on the floor. Two days later and the same sticker they claimed wasn't visible ia still there. They made me pay $27/5 to get my car back. They're known to do this right around the time when rent needs to be paid. Then the leasing office evict folks and won't let them get their possession.

    On 1/24/24 Lizard Lick towed my car. They state that my registration was expired. I showed proof for registration. And they still would not allow for me to get my car.

    Lizard Lick Towing is a MAJOR predatory towing company. I’m appalled by the amount of illegal towing they’ve gotten away with.
    They have spotters in their communities alerting them to things like cars that are parked ever so slightly on the grass.
    I’ve literally confirmed that by talking to one of the woman in the office.
    One time I asked to see pictures of my car as proof it was on the grass; they had hooked up my car and backed the truck up maybe 1 foot, then stuck their finger over one end of the camera and took a picture like that. When I told him this was crazy and I wanted to see the actual body cam footage, he got belligerent with me, slapping his hand against the wall and banging the door open and screaming at me and getting in my face. Never have I received such terrible customer service while simultaneously being illegally towed.

    In the past month, we’ve had three different cars towed from our complex. Since I’ve moved in here a few months ago, we’ve had our cars ( & our friends cars ) towed a whopping 10 times!! It’s absolutely ridiculous! Thousands of dollars all over the tiniest of reasons and there’s barely, IF ANY AT ALL, actual signage saying that your car will be towed for said reasons.
    They claim that a lot of their towing rules are something that residents signed up and agreed to in their leasing agreement; but what about people who did not sign the leasing agreement and therefore have never even seen it? How is that even relatively legal?
    I’m not complaining about the prices which are priced like every other tow truck agency, i’m furious that they’ve decided they’re going to prey on the lower income individuals that literally cannot afford to be paying these fees. You could be patrolling anywhere, and they claim they have over 25 different communities they patrol, but our cars are literally gone within 20 minutes of being parked. I have lieral video footage showing how quickly our cars are taken away. It’s absolutely appalling.

    3. they wrongly towed our vehicles, said there weren't updated stickers when there were & I have proof
    4. he tried to preach the bible to us
