A1 towed my truck in college for parking in the office parking area of Saulsalito Apartments (my fault). A day or two after I got my truck back, one of the tires had gone flat and had to be replaced. Turns out they put a slow leak in the side wall by scraping it against the curb when the pulled it out. Was too late to do anything about it by that point though.




This exact same thing happened to me in college. I was at fault and was rightfully towed, but I noticed my damaged tire (and scraped to hell $300 alloy wheel) and brought it to their attention. The lady in the office laughed and said "You will have to take us to court for that." Less than a week later, I had to buy a new tire. I will never forget the way I was treated. Just a chitty customer service.

you gotta understand that the company is blue collar to the T...owners and staff that barely graduated high school and love to "stick it" to the "rich" college kids

rejoice in the fact that you'll go on to a great career after college that requires intellectual stamina and they'll go nowhere

there is nothing wrong with blue collar. There is something wrong with unintelligent with a chip on their shoulder.

I almost got stomped by a defensive captain from our beloved football team when I made a comment like that in a Cultural Diversity class, Scimi.

People understand being screwed over. Thats what they understand.

One of these days...theyll mess with the wrong person. And end up like Donald Moore.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is why the MyBCS board is the laughing stock of TexAgs.com

I don't think so, no, but she didn't get it back til the next day.

and she had to go get it, they should have brought it back to her with a big f-ing bow and a tag that said "we are so sorry that we took your car, we were wrong........but you've gotta admit it was a legal tow, and you're partially to blame."

OK i read through a handful of pages and didn't find this answer.

The person who got their car towed, were they at work, or did they leave the lot?

op made it sound like the person was at work, which means A1 had no business (made a mistake) towing the car since the person didn't cross the st.

She was at work. My understanding is all the posts defending A1 were actually related to a completely different vehicle and driver than the one owned by the Schlotzky's employee.

so the employees car was wrongfully towed, but the whole time during the discussion between A1 and schlotszkys, A1 was talking about a different car that they legally towed?

I'm really confused now.

Wow, the one day I take off work and this happens. A1 (the company) is a piece of **** and A1 (the poster) is a total ****head. I once used a tow company to tow my car to the shop to have some work done and was telling the driver about my experience with A1. He said that even in towing circles A1 is seen as scumbags. That should tell you something.

There have been some really dumb things posted on this thread but this may take 1st prize.

No the vehicles were the same.

1. A girls parks her truck at work, she gets out and goes into work.

2. The spotter misses the girl (somehow) and only sees her significant other get out and walk across the street to class. This is the male in A1's story.


So neither one was wrong about their respective person within the vehicle.

What I can't figure out, I assume the girl drove since it was her vehicle, meaning the spotter saw the male get out of the passenger side.

I see what you mean Wildmen...WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER PERSON???

or, the spotter is paid by the tow and didn't give a sh** b/c they could just claim ignorance since they did have an accurate description of the male occupant.

as if such a thing were possible, the spotter is actually a lesser life form than the tow truck driver.

Think for a moment about the caliber of the person whom found and accepted employment for which the job description is "sit at a parking lot all day, watching people park."

Well according to A1 she shouldn't have been dating that guy or else her vehicle would not have been towed since it was a legal tow. She obviously likes her job more than her boyfriend so she broke up with him so A1 wouldn't have to legally tow her.
