    Yea honestly I don’t blame them, their not paid to give a fuck. AAA responders get something ridiculous like 50 bucks a call, half the time their practically losing money to respond. plus every time I have used them it has been multiple hours wait. I cancelled AAA after the “mediator” tried to tell me to eat it when their operator totaled my car, to which I had to get the DOT numbers off the flatbed and chase their insurance my damn self. Id rather properly pay an honest tow company that actually cares lol. That experience left a REAL sour taste in my mouth.

        Better hope u don’t have any troubles because the mediators will do everything they can to leave you holding the bag. He and the tow company owner both told me I cannot force them to go through insurance. To their dismay I fucking did! Car totaled out and got my 8 grand back, tow company only offered me 2500 which doesn’t even cover the reiger body kit it had on, nevermind the ac condenser it burst releasing freon into the atmosphere, the radiator it knocked the bottom out of or the oil coolers it wrecked that dumped all manner of fluids all over the place. I had a rotten experience and I recognize that’s not the norm, but how the company handled it told me all I needed to know!

          Two days ago, our favorite plummers sent a dude who botched the job so badly. I smiled and paid the $4hundred plus bill. 8 am next morning I called the office and explained the job was botched. They sent out an experienced plumber who rolled his eyes and apologized immediately. He said he would redo all the work and hire an electrician to handle that part of their disaster and all would be paid by them.

          Next day all was made right.

          Guess I share that by way of saying, if I had cut them off then and there… I wouldn’t have gotten to see them make right…

          And… thumbing that out… I have made your point: you gave AAA every opportunity to make right and they didn’t.

          BOO on them.
