H & H Asap Towing

This morning on my way to work my tire blew on The Dan Ryan. As I was calling my work to ask what to do, a tow truck appeared. He loaded me up and started driving. I was crying, scared and very upset. He drove me straight to a bank and told me $ 295 and that the tire store is nearby. I thought it was unreasonable. I asked him how much the drivers the city calls ask, he said don’t worry, just send it to your insurance and they will cover it.
I am researching now and most other companies charge 85 – 150. I am very upset that they get away with this over and over. Someone needs to get them off the Dan Ryan if this is a repeat practice. And the worst part is they are from Homewood! That is where I live!

OMG, this guy is such a scam artist. My story sounds exactly like Kevin G’s. The owner Tony definitely got me at a weak moment. I got a flat tire just off the Dan Ryan Expressway, and here he comes. What I thought was my knight in shining armor. I ask him how much and he tells me $ 95 for the tow. For the tow I guess is the key phrase there. After he has my SUV hooked up on his truck, he offers to take me to an ATM to get money. I ask him how much do I need? His response was $ 185. How do we go from $ 95 to $ 185. When I orginally asked him how much he failed to mention the $ 40 labor charge and $ 50 for mileage. Mind you he took me no more than 2 miles. Telling me the whole time oh don’t worry your insurance company will pay for it, just send them the bill, I’ve been doing this a long time he says. My insurance company paid but only $ 50.
This was the worse experience ever. I truly don’t know how this guy sleeps at night, preying on people broken down on the side of the road, and then waiting until he has your vehicle on the back of his truck and has you outside an ATM before he tells you how much you really owe.
All I can say is go back to Jordan, which is where he said he was from. Maybe that’s how they do business in that country, but it’s certainly not how we like to do business in the United States.

My tire went out on me on I-​94 just south of 115^th. A tow truck pulled up less than 5 minutes later. I was pretty happy, because I was trying to fill the tire with my car battery opearted Air pump. The driver was Tony Hadad — I think he was the owner, but I can’t be sure. Based on other reviews, and something he said to me, I’m pretty sure they can charge whatever they want. He said he could get me where ever I wanted to go for $ 95 for the flatbed and 4 cents a mile. This was better than what I was working with so I agreed. He also drove me to a Chase for the cash. This man was extremely nice, and even knew the manager of the place that I suggested that he take me to. I can’t say I have any complaints at all. He charged me for roundtrip miles, I still don’t understand that if I only went one way. I guess I“m paying for him to go back to where he picked me up. I was just happy to be out of the cold and off the side of the road, so I gladly paid the man. I wouldn’t say he tried to get over, everyone has to make a living.

This review is for Mrs. M and anyone esle that needs a tow.
Watch out for this scam artist. He got me, but not for all he was trying to get. I think this towing company is a one man operation that prays on the unfortunate ones that break down on the high way. He lied on the price which leads me to believe he lied about everything else that came out of his mouth (and he had a lot to say). I have found several bad reviews with almost the exact situation as mine, but i found out a little to late. My truck broke down in the middle lane on I-​55 north bound right before the ⁹⁰⁄₉₄ exit, any one that knows that area knows its a bad area to break down in A.M. rush hour. IDOT pulls me to the shoulder and leaves .IDOT got me out of danger and thats what they are suppose to do. Thak you IDOT minutemen. Then this dude pulls up in his tow truck and says I will hook you up for $ 75.00 even though it is usually $ 95.00 and it is $ 5.00 a mile. I agreed.
It was a 21 mile tow one way accordingg to my GPS but I told him I will just call it 25 miles in his favor. So the bill should be $ 200.00 or even if he charged me $ 95.00 hook up instead of $ 75.00 it would be $ 220.00. When we get to the shop, he hands me a receipt to sign that says $ 325.00, thats $ 125.00 more then what it should of been. I asked whats up and he said well it was 50 miles there and back. I said you only took me there I’m not going back and you told me $ 5.00 a mile, you didn’t say $ 5.00 a mile there and $ 5.00 a mile back .He said its because the gas is so expensive. My Mechanic who was standing there when me and the tow truck dude were debating the charge said to the guy that there towing doesn’t even charge for the millage for both ways, especiallyy when you only went one way, plus the mechanic said he doesn’t know of any legit towing that does that. The mechanic even called a him crook to his face in front of me. I could go on and on with this story. Anyways I gave the driver $ 270.00 which was $ 70.00 more that what the originall price should have worked out to.
Moral of the story, If your vehicle breaks down and you see a red flat bed tow truck or one that says H&H A.S.A.P towing Say no ! No matter what the guy says or offers. Plus he has a big fat F in the BBB reports. Spread the word to your friends and family, because cars all eventually break down sooner or later. Good luck and beware of this crook.
