Louwo Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 So agero just called me for a tow going to flushing, Queens, NYC. I asked of they were fully covered and the lady said yes they paid for it. I replied saying if they paid you the additional I will not tow it for their rates going into the city. She said you are rude and hung up abruptly on me. Oops....

thtdon Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 This morning I got a call from the Big A to tow a car almost 100 miles. It was going to Falmouth, MA, which is on Cape Cod. She said that their member did not have any coverage to cover that tow. I gave her a price, based on my cash call rates. Then I proceeded to tell her that the only way that I would tow a car to the Cape on Memorial Day morning is for that quoted cash call rate. The traffic both ways is obscene on Memorial Day weekend. I told her not to even think of having the customer pay them what I quoted on their credit card over the phone, and then tell me that now the member has coverage, and that I am to tow that car at motor club rates. The result? CLICK. I feel bad for the poor bugger who is sitting on the side of I-93, in danger, waiting for someone to help him, while we play games.

When our rates covered the $75 limit of the member and then they pad appx $60 to the roadside. I just tell them this company did not physically collect any money from you. Call who you called before asking for a receipt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote a tow or overage 5 min later all of a sudden they are fully covered. I say sorry my driver is on another call and now remove me from the list for this call. I stop giving them quotes on the phone. I just say it is between me and who I will be collecting the money from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESC Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I now give them quotes figuring the jobs round trip time at $175 per hour. Its amazing how they bite a few times a week at those rates. I love it when they get desperate and they email that credit card over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dperone Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 If I had a dollar for every time an Agero dispatcher called me rude I'd have enough money to buy every dispatcher they have a map so they stop calling me for calls that are 3 STATES away.
