    Hagerty scheduled this James Tow appoint for me. AVOID!!!

    WHAT AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE!!! STAY AWAY, UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CAR DAMAGED AND THEM TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR FAULT. Tow requested for my vintage Porsche 911 with a BRAND NEW PAINT JOB. James Tow was supposed to take the car 60 miles. They delivered the vehicle in 6.5 hours (YES, 6.5 hours for 60 miles, I could have rolled the car myself faster) , and there was major body damage on the rear quarter panel, and the front quarter panel as well. When the driver took the car off the tow truck, we asked what happened. Driver pretended to know nothing. The damage was pointed out to the driver. Driver didn't even acknowledge the damage. We asked for this damage to be written up. Driver claimed there was no write up the do. Driver claimed they can only do it electronically, so we ok, write it up electronically. Driver said he can't do that either. I understand we all make mistakes. BUT, you must take ACCOUNTABILITY for them. Not pretend it didn't happen and sweep it under the rug. IF YOU WANT YOUR VEHICLE TO GET ABSOLUTELY RUINED, CALL JAMES TOWING!!!

He sent me detailed information about the issue, explained what I might need to replace, and genuinely tried to help me avoid spending more money than necessary. What stood out to me the most was that he didn't have to do any of this. He wasn't making money from helping me, yet he still took time out of his day to make sure I had the information I needed. He was kind, honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me. If I ever run into any towing issues in the future, he will definitely be the person I call, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with their car. This experience also reminded me that there are still genuinely good people out there. He inspired me to always stay true to myself and continue helping others whenever I can, because the kindness you put into the world really does come back around. I'm extremely grateful for his help and wish him nothing but success!

He was super friendly…read moreknowledgeable, fast and efficient as well as careful with my vehicle, there was a lot of traffic on the way there. He was still happy even after all the traffic he had to go through to get to my new place. He also dropped it of right where i needed it. I would highly recommend this business. They have great prices, quality people and fast. UPDATE I used them a month ago and I had to move my other classic to my new location this Sunday a month later. And the new driver Oscar was just as good as the previous driver Robert. He went out of his way to help in anyway that he could to make sure the job was done right and he was very fast efficient and safe with the vehicle. Would highly recommend this business to anyone once again they have great prices, great personnel, and just great service all around.

    Called at 1:30 am after my car broke down safely in the gas station. We contacted 8 different…read moretowing companies, and Alberto's quoted $195 for a 6.5 mile tow in Fountain Valley with a 45 minute to 1 hour estimate. We went with them. Right away we told them the car was a BMW M4, completely dead, could not go into neutral. They confirmed the $195 quote. At the 1 hour mark (2:30 am), we hadn't heard anything, so we called. They said the driver was finishing another job and would call us shortly. At 3:00 am, we called again, frustrated because we could've paid $50 more elsewhere and been home already. They said he'd be on his way soon. We finally got a text saying the driver was en route from Santa Ana, 15 minutes away. He arrived around 3:45 am, over 2 hours after our original call. The driver loaded the car onto the flatbed with no issues. Then came the surprise, he told us the price was now $325 a $130 increase because he had to use "extra pieces" since the car couldn't go into neutral. Hector (tow truck driver) was a nice guy and knew what he was doing, just disappointed in the bait and switch. :/ We had explained the car's condition in detail when we first called and were quoted $195. Nothing changed between then and the tow. The price hike only came up after the car was already on the truck. Unprofessional from start to finish. Late by 1.5+ hours beyond the estimate, terrible communication (we had to chase them), and a shady price increase while the car was being loaded. There were other companies that quoted $230-250 with much shorter wait times. I should've gone with one of them.

    Worst experience i've ever had. Charged $425 dollars to get my car that was towed at my apartment…read morecomplex literally less than 5 hours before. The older asian man at the front was so hostile and incredibly rude when asked if there was any payment plans available. After asking for a price breakdown he wasn't able to provide, he stormed off and didn't come back. When I went back to get my car I saw him and confronted him asking why he's so awful. He just said I had an attitude. Yeah bro I have an attitude cause it feels like i'm being robbed and you were incredibly rude. When be brought my car out he blocked me from getting in and was leaning on the open door. This dude needs to learn how to speak to women. Overall the worst experience. They need to be investigated for their shady behavior. weirdos The lady was very nice and explained properly and was actually useful.

    My daughter's car was hit and towed to this location on a Saturday @5:40pm. They're closed on…read moreSundays, and Monday was Memorial Day, with pickups by appointment only. I learned there's an extra fee for holiday pickup, but waiting until Tuesday would cost the same due to an additional day's storage. The total to retrieve the car was $546--steep, but we had no choice. Thankfully, we called ahead and discovered the car was at their Anaheim location not Santa Ana were they told us. Upon arrival, they only allowed my daughter inside after verifying her driver's license. She couldn't find her current registration in the glovebox, and they refused to release the car despite us providing proof of insurance and past payment statements. We were stuck for 40 minutes with the AAA tow truck waiting. Fortunately, my wife found a copy of the car title, texted it to me, and they accepted it. After payment, they towed the car to the entrance for AAA to take it home. The process felt overly strict and expensive.

    Extremely TERRIBLE experience…read more I had a very frustrating experience with Wolf Kings Towing and Recovery through AAA. I was instructed to meet the driver at a Shell gas station in Fullerton, and AAA estimated that the driver would arrive within about an hour. I tracked the tow truck through the AAA app, and it ultimately took approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes for him to arrive. The driver, Luis, who told me he was the owner's nephew, was on his phone texting and calling coworkers on his non-work phone. When he arrived he remained inside his truck while talking to me. He was cold, dismissive, and difficult to communicate with. I could barely hear or understand what he was saying when he first arrived. Super unprofessional. What made the situation worse was that his tow truck BROKE DOWN. He told me he was going to drop me off despite knowing I was stranded with a vehicle experiencing mechanical problems. He offered no solutions or meaningful assistance, and I was ultimately left to figure things out and venture out on my own to find a solution after waiting nearly two hours for help. Being stranded is already stressful enough. I expected basic professionalism, clear communication, and an actual effort to assist me. Unfortunately, that was not my experience with this company. Very disappointing experience. I would not recommend Wolf Kings Towing and Recovery based on how I was treated. When police came he was asked to not leave until the third tow truck with a bed could come unload my car. When the officer spoke to Luis, he scoffed and said " well I can't leave anyway." Luis never apologized or said how this was so inconvenient. He simply never spoke to me or apologized. This companies professionalism is at a ZERO. Their solutions for their own failure to complete a checklist before leaving their lot is at a ZERO.
