    GNG Towing and Cash For Junk Cars

    Well, it's 2019 now. I phoned this same tow company today, June 1st, for the same service as before…read more(see my glowing 2016 review). My car is the same vehicle, parked in the same space and in the same residential parking garage from where they helped me successfully three years ago. Now however, GNG flatly refuses me service. The guy who answered the phone said that he "damaged his truck last time," which he absolutely did not. Also, he said that "you're on the top floor aren't you?" trying vainly to remember the job, which I am not. I'm on a lower level, one story down from street level. I would think that in three years, GNG only would have gotten three years better and more efficient than they already were. Instead, however, it appears that in that short span of time, they've gotten worse at what it is they claim they do with such expertise. Negative and condescending on the phone, the guy sounds like he hates what he does for a living--or perhaps he was just having a bad day. I phoned them with the same result over a month ago, thus why I felt it was probably time to alert consumers. I suppose there's just that much towing in Chicago, that one can cavalierly decline business and revenue on any given Saturday.

    Had a great experience with this company…read more I have roadside assistance through my cell phone company and this was the company I got paired with. I've had multiple situations with towing, jumpstarts, busted tires, etc. because apparently my car is a POS (bless her engine). But, none of my experiences are stand out--except for this one, thanks to Manny. Manny communicated consistently about his ETA/ timeline for completing other calls before me. So, I wasn't sitting around waiting outside, and he wasn't sitting around waiting for me either. Once he was able to give an accurate ETA, he showed up exactly when he said he would--literally to the minute. He was also extremely knowledgeable about best practices when having to get your car towed. He warned me about all the towing scams that take place around Chicago and how to avoid them. I had no idea there were so many ways for tow companies to milk money. If you take a look at the reviews for other tow companies, it becomes increasingly apparent how common these scams are. The fact that he was so transparent about red flags for other towing companies makes it clear that GNG does none of that. Everything was streamlined with GNG--you pay with a card and your information is all in the system, so you know they don't do any of the shady money-pocketing scams. The price was great too. After my phone company paid their share, I paid $28 out of pocket, which shows that the initial price must have been very reasonable, because in the past my OOPs have been 2X-3X that. If I have any future car issues (which I definitely will... I mentioned my car is a POS, right?), I'm coming back to GNG. And though I'm sure everyone here is awesome, I'll ask for Manny.

I really appreciate the work completed since I've never had to move the tool chest before so I was nervous about damage during the move.

My car has sat idle in my building's parking garage, collecting dust since before the pandemic began--meaning since 2018. In those six years, I've been vainly searching for one towing company in the city that appeared even remotely like they wanted my business. The experience has ranged from abrasive phone dispatchers who obviously hated their jobs, to not having drivers or trucks available, being too busy or not having certain tools on their trucks (i.e. air compressors), to not answering the phone at all or wanting to charge your credit card in advance of showing up. Chicago towing is the exception, and they are exceptional. This was the absolute best, most professional and most pleasing experience with a tow company ever--especially if you get a chance to work with Robert (do yourself a favor and ask for him by name). After General Motors was unable to repair whatever was wrong with my General Motors engine a few years back -- and charged me over $500 for it -- I phoned Chicago Towing this week to see if I could just get my car started to get some servicing before this winter sets in. They called me to confirm, texted me to confirm, then the driver Robert texted me to confirm again and provided his precise ETA. He showed up on time, knew exactly what he was talking about and had my vehicle running in less than five minutes. He also gave me about another ten minutes of good, knowledgeable, no-nonsense advice and counsel about my car, the payment process was seamless and he even made sure I was parked straight before leaving. These guys actually deserve to have Chicago be a part of their name. World-class service in a world-class city; extremely rare in the towing business. You can rest assured I'm never calling anyone else.

    AVOID ADVANTAGE TOWING. I would give them zero stars if I could…read more This was one of the worst experiences I have ever had with a business, and I believe I was deliberately misled so they could turn a simple tow into an outrageous storage bill. Allstate Roadside dispatched Advantage to tow my 2025 BMW i7 about 30 miles to the collision center. When the driver picked up my car, he told me that taking it directly there that day would cost me HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS out of pocket because of the mileage. He told me the alternative was to let Advantage keep my car overnight at their storage facility and they would deliver it to the collision center the next morning without me having to pay those huge mileage charges. I relied on what he told me and agreed. I later found out the additional charge to take my car directly to the destination was apparently only about $45 - NOT the hundreds of dollars I was told. And what happened after they got possession of my car? It wasn't delivered the next morning. They kept it at their lot, stopped responding to my calls and requests to move it, and then demanded THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in towing/storage-related charges from the insurance company before the car would be released. I was lied to about the cost of completing the tow so I would agree to let them take my car to their storage facility, where they could then generate a massive bill. I consider what happened to be fraudulent and I am filing complaints regarding their conduct. As if that wasn't enough, after getting my BMW back I discovered that a $300 bottle of cologne that had been inside the vehicle was GONE. I am reporting the missing property separately as well. A simple 30-mile tow turned into a THREE-DAY ORDEAL involving thousands of dollars in disputed charges, unanswered calls, my approximately $120,000 BMW sitting in a storage lot, and personal property missing from my vehicle. I would NEVER voluntarily allow this company to take possession of one of my vehicles again. If Advantage Towing is dispatched for you, I strongly recommend documenting EVERYTHING before they touch your vehicle - photograph the interior, photograph your belongings, record the mileage, get every price and promise in writing, and know exactly where they are taking your car.
