    STAY AWAY FROM RICARDO. I was just picked up by Ricardo. When i got in his truck there was a woman with him in his tow truck like they were on a date. Ricardo seemed to be under the influence of Cocaine. He wouldn't stop talking and sniffing his nose. When he dropped me off he refused to give me a receipt saying that he ran out of invoices. I refused to pay him unless he provided me a receipt. It took less time to tow my motorcycle than it did to get a receipt from him. One moment he says he is an employee and the next min he says he is the owner. After I finally got the receipt and paid him he told me never to call him again when I'm stranded and that i can go fu*k myself.

    Super nice guy, towed my SUV to the dealership. Knew a lot about cars and made sure we got there safe and sound.

    I called them and in 30 minutes they towed my car to a repair store. One of the best tow service in OC in my experience.

    $125 for someone to come down less than half a mile to unlock a truck for us. More than a tow service would have been.

    Ricardo was amazing when he came to pick me and my service animal up from the side of the road when my car battery died on me.

    Scheduling was efficient and staff friendly, prices were reasonable and Emanuel my driver showed up…read moreat the time scheduled, communicated his ETA, worked quick, was knowledgeable and courteous. I hope I don't have to use another tow anytime soon but if I do I will be calling ERS back.

    It was a Tuesday morning and I was at the crib trying to handle one normal task before noon. My…read moreGerman Altima had been sitting in the driveway for eight months in a state of mechanical reflection, misfiring like it owed somebody three child support payments. I needed a tow to fix and smog. Simple. Routine. The kind of errand a grown man should be able to complete without a film crew. I called AAA. I'm a Premier member, ten years deep, never asked for so much as a free water bottle. AAA dispatched ERS Towing. Enter Mike. Mike pulled up to my crib in a flatbed -- emphasis on flatbed, the truck specifically engineered for moving cars that do not run -- and walked around my German Altima like it had personally insulted his mother. He stopped at the bumper. The bumper was aftermarket. Mike, summoning the dramatic energy of a man who had never seen a winch in his entire career, declared the vehicle untowable. A flatbed. Defeated. By a piece of plastic that does not even move. While this was unfolding, shawty's son Aiden was on my living room floor eating Hot Cheetos with the focused intensity of a CEO reviewing Q3 earnings. Aiden is five. Aiden has those little silver caps on his front teeth and a stare that has historically destabilized grown men, tax accountants, and at least one Lyft driver I know personally. He locked eyes with me through the screen door, mid-Cheeto, and I could feel him judging me AND Mike simultaneously. I have never in my life been on the same side of a conflict as Aiden. The fact that he and I were aligned against ERS Towing was, in retrospect, the first sign I was about to win something larger than a tow. Dispatch called. Enter Amy. Amy did not yet have a second reason to deny my service -- so Mike, and I want this part read slowly, took an actual photograph of my expired registration sticker and texted it to her, the way a man builds a federal case from his driver's seat. Within 12 business minutes, two unrelated disqualifying issues had been documented, photographed, and triple-archived by two coordinating employees. Neither reason exists in the AAA Member Guide. I have read the AAA Member Guide. Twice. Aiden has probably read it at this point. My German Altima has adjustable air suspension. The car can literally rise to greet you. The bumper concern was theoretical at best. The expired sticker is not a disqualifier under the AAA contract. Mike and Amy appear to operate from a secret rulebook hand-stitched in the parking lot of a Chevron, possibly inside a Nissan Altima with one working brake light, possibly with Aiden as a consultant. My theory, served free of charge: the tow destination was a few miles farther than ERS felt like driving on a Tuesday morning, and 'we don't feel like it' sounded less professional than manufacturing two excuses. Long tows are apparently outside the boutique service tier. Greed dressed up as policy. Roadside refusal as a subscription model. I did not subscribe. I did not get my tow. I did get a documentary. Aiden finished his Cheetos, wiped his hands on the couch, and gave me one slow silver-toothed nod -- the closest he has ever come to validating me as a human being. At that moment I knew I would be writing this review. One star. ERS Towing -- please return the AAA contract. You don't serve this community. You audition it. Even Aiden agreed, and Aiden agrees with no one. AAA, please send a different contractor next time. Mike and Amy can keep the photograph as a souvenir.

    Funny reviews, I got my car impounded and had to go collect it at the yard behind A's (Dana Point)…read more After reading the reviews, I expected the worst but what I got was far from it. Remember, these people are here to do a job, not to make you feel warm & fuzzy. If you don't want to deal with them, don't get your car impounded. They don't tow cars for no reason. When I called, the lady did have a little attitude but that was expected given the caliber of people she has to deal with. That I can handle.. Where I live, they don't just tow your car away. Somebody has to sign for it, the security patrol. It's not the tow company's fault for impounding my car. It's ultimately mine for parking where I did. It's kind of a bummer when you walk outside in first thing in the morning and your car has disappeared and your first thought is "thanks Obama/" I was pissed but it finally wore off. $285 kinda stings but oh well. The deal is, be there by 5 PM or there's an additional charge. I arrived at 4:45 and was helped by Chris and all went well. No attitude at all, in fact he was very polite. My car wasn't damaged and nothing was missing. I paid up and was on my way. Note to all the whiners out there: Don't get your car impounded then cry about it, there are far worse things that can happen.

    Worst towing service! While I was trying to explain the lease and show him the name and…read moreinformation, he wouldn't even look up or respond. When I told him he had an attitude, he agreed and snapped back that he didn't have to do the tow at all and could just leave. He slapped my driver's license into my hand and walked off. The whole incident is on our security camera, but even with that, the company barely takes what I say seriously. It's obvious they're not interested in improving their service. Do not recommend!
