ANYONE EVER HAD IT? AND DID THEY REPAIR IT FOR YOU?

I know 2 different people that had their cars damaged by tow companies and they both claimed the damage was already there. I got involved and went down to talk to the owners in both cases showing exactly where the damage matched the contact points on the truck, they still wouldn't do anything. Its tough to prove they did it. Did you hire them to tow the vehicle or were they called to tow it away by the cops?

They were called to be towed by the cops!

+1 the tow company is supposed to inspect it before towing and make a note of any defects, providing you with a copy, take em to court.

Thats only if your there to get the paper from them. If the owner of the car isn't around they'll unload it and do a damage report most likely. Good luck getting anything from them but if you don't drop the issue they might give you something.
