Maria Salcido was a wonderful source of help to us during a stressful time for our family last year. She went above and beyond to help out. Her services are excellent and she would follow through, give us her personal cell phone for any questions or concerns. She is an angel! Five stars for Maria Salcido. read more

I would like to recognize Ashinta at the Downtown Oakland location for her outstanding customer service. She was extremely patient and took the time to walk me through the entire process step by step, making sure I understood everything. She also kept me informed by calling back with updates on my situation, which I greatly appreciated. Her professionalism, communication, and dedication to helping customers made the experience much easier and less stressful. Thank you, Ashinta, for providing such excellent service. read more

Bail Hotline Bail Bonds was a true lifeline during a really stressful time for our family. From the moment we reached out, the process was handled with professionalism, compassion, and urgency. James was our main contact, and I can't thank him enough for how helpful and supportive he was throughout the entire experience. He explained everything clearly, answered all our questions patiently, and made sure we understood every step. It was a huge relief to have someone so reliable and kind walking us through the process. Thanks to Bail Hotline--and especially James--we were able to get our loved one out quickly and with peace of mind. I'm beyond grateful for their help and highly recommend them if you ever find yourself in a tough situation like we did. read more

Called on a Thursday to help a dear friend get her hubby out of the clink. Even with another county trying to ruin the reunion, these folks got him home in time for Sunday brunch. They were reasonable on price, and had lots of discounts available. If you need bail for yourself or someone you care about I'd say go for them. read more

I've used this bail bond place a couple times in the past and each time they were quick and responsive. But there is this one particular time where I felt important as a customer. Jacob who is actually fairly new there went above and beyond I felt like with helping me in what I needed to get done. He even stayed after hours when he was suppose to be off by 7pm. He was helpful and super kind and patient! read more

These Guys don't even deserve a star.. The worst bail bondsman ever.. Lie to get you to sign and then call you before payment due demanding payments Don't Trust them.. They call and Threaten you and your co signers Until you have to block them .. Cruel and not able to work with you.. All lies before you sign remember They will say anything to get your money and then things change after you sign.. The Worst! Con artists read more

This Bail bond is so trash I try to get a person out of jail and didn't even help me. They would call and call but they wouldn't get me no where. I kept calling them for some updates and they would tell me the something over and over... called them for 3 DAYS and they still didn't do nothing. I just got my money back. Not recommended. read more

If you are in a jam, Go to these guys first. Very professional, quick and to the point. Very very help. Straight talk. I went to Golden State and Aladdin Bailbond, save yourself the trip. BailBonds Hotline was cheaper and much more professional. read more

Too bad I can't put 0 stars. Where do I begin? The workers are so rude, to start out. Especially, the women. I don't understand how they got 5 stars on yelp. Am I the only one that had a horrible experience? I really think this particular place has unprofessional people that work there. When a worker has to lie for another worker because they messed up is just sad. When u get different stories about what's going on or these people all telling you different things and never the same answer, something has to be wrong right?! I wish we would have went somewhere different to take care of our situation. Unfortunately, we're stuck. I sing recommend this place to anybody. Thumbs down. Boooo. read more

We wish you three associates continuing success throughout each of your lives and professional careers. Kind Regards, The Hodge Family read more

I originally submitted a 5- star review as such: Quick answers by phone - informative response, and got my friend processing out of jail within the hour. Pleasant experience, and I would recommend this place to anyone looking for easy, efficient, and friendly service. I am now adjusting my review after calling back and getting voicemail while trying to verify causality. Here's the story: My friend who they bailed out has a drug problem and tried to kick it solo (I didn't know about it yet at the time). During the time he was withdrawing, he missed not one, but two court dates. For this, he understood he would likely be going to jail when he next turned himself in, so he asked the bondsman what to do. They instructed him to come in and get a letter of reinstatement. My friend failed to do so for over a month, as he relapsed and was unable to focus and get anything done, however, as I found him and helped him start getting clean (he came to me and told me his story), A few days ago, the bondsmen called my work, and the text I got from my partners said, "A guy named Robert called for you. 408-883-0335. He says you cosigned for someone and that person skipped out. They will come after you if you can't help them locate this person." Only AFTER that did Robert call my cell phone directly to speak to me. Needless to say, I'm still dealing with the repercussions at work. So there's one star removed. During the conversations over the next day or so with Robert and his supervisor, I repeatedly asked, "When Jason goes by your office, will he be going to jail?" I then explained to them why I was asking, so that I would be sure to get all keys from him (he is a mechanic) and all information needed to get vehicles handled by other mechanics and vehicles back to their owners. I thought I was pretty clear that either way Jason would go in, it just changed the way I would approach it and how much planning would be spent before driving him in. They insisted several times that he would not be going to jail. So I had Jason drive himself to the bondsmen to sign the paperwork and continued with work. An hour or so later, I get a call from Justin saying they are taking him to jail. Now, to try to protect the vehicles and investments in his work (he is a good mechanic) I have had to take a driver to go get his work truck (I would have had him driven to the bondsman had I known) and AFTER the fact, I now have to have other mechanics pick up where he left off, without being able to transition it smoothly. All this hassle is because Hotline Bail Bonds decided it best to maintain lies to a business owner trying to protect investments. Two stars lost here. I was planning on submitting this a a two star rating, but I just called back "Robert" who has been calling me a lot the last few days while I though we were scheduling Jason to go sign papers with a notary, but they were actually just lying to try to get him in. (I'm on their side, at least as far as getting him in is concerned) no answer - I was going to ask if e decision to take him in was based on him arriving 2-3 hours late today, or if it had already been decided beforehand. I thought i should be fair and give them a chance before I posted this rating. I guess they don't care about my call at all anymore, now that they have him to jail. Moral of the story, they can and will lie to you. read more

May 12th I made my first enquirer with Aladdin. I chose this business after thoroughly reading there about information it was exactly what I was hoping for. The gal I spoke with seamed to be feeling a bit agitated, understandably forgivable as I confronted her with the fact of false advertising. It became apparent to me that I was actually talking to somebody with a brain Matter of a turkey , her English vocabulary consisted of two words $3600 and OK Ok Ok .. James with Hotline 3 failed attempts several text messages paperwork his offers kept getting even better, The problem was, I didn't have enough money, Please remember, this is a business . What is the primary reason why you might wanna invest your savings and open up a business , maybe to make more money? You can show up at a food bank with no money and most likely go home with enough and that is wonderful. For me personally , seeking the services that Hotline has set forth is a personal convenience , " I miss my friend" James understood that, For that I am thankful, And completely prepared to take advantage of what he Professionally felt would be within my budget not his.

I had a great experience here. The manager John took care of us. I didn't know anything about bailbonds but he was more than glad to walk me thru it. I would definitley use their help again! read more

I am so disappointed. They offered service. That was crucial to me and things went Southml. I went to jail again. It was a minimal $500 bail and they refused to help me because I didn't know their strict rules of paying on time. They treated me like I was a nobody but the first time I called them to treating me like I'm somebody and I totally and not happy with their customer service at all they should be fired read more

So I'm here because two weeks ago I came in because my friend was short $40 on her boyfriends bail and some how after dropping off money to a girl named Maria I became a cosigner. With out using my ssi card or my state I. D. Or with out a signature. I was so confused on why there financial department was calling me for money. So I came down here and met with Raquel who wasn't helpful not because she was a rude b word but because she just couldn't give me any answers on how they got my name and number when all I did was drop off $40. So being afraid of foul play I called a family member who is a lawyer and he deals with these kinds of things and he said no tina refuse to leave until u see how they came up with me being financial responsible for a bond I never sighted on. Because it's either fraud on their part or on the initial signer. So I explained and super calm I have four children so I know I can keep a level head. I explained to Raquel that I am super worried that this could be identity theft or fraud and that I'm not gonna leave until I get real answers. And she started making calls and was super passive aggressive. I felt bad but this is important. She kept trying to make me leave I kept insisting on phone numbers for her boss or supervisor and she handled it pretty well until she got up and started calling the supervisor( who's number she said she didn't have )and started talking crap about me refusing to leave and wanting answers (uhh duhhh) I want to know how I'm financially responsible for someone els. Well they chalked it off as a computer error (right) and as I was leaving Raquel was so rude. I just wanted answers they are the ones who made the mistake but now I feel like I got into a pissing match with super chola Raquel read more

Maria was so helpful! She took all the stress she could out of this situation. I am so thankful for her and the whole team.

I first thought I was receiving excellent customer service from the bond agents here at this company but months later when I found in the mail that I had an outstanding balance for a bond that I CLEARLY stated to all agents in the company before I actually help someone get out of jail that I cannot be financially responsible for this person's Bond however they have sent the account to a law office which is trying to obtain money from me when I told them that I clearly cannot afford to pay for it I was a single mother on a fixed income and that I could not afford to be financially responsible for it . I called the office I called the law office that they put the case over to and they both still were very adamant about me being responsible for it and so I gave them two thumbs down if I had more thumbs I would give them down as well and I definitely would refer no one not even my worst enemy to this company . Its unfortunate that they can do business this way. read more
