Third Coast Recovery in
Corpus Christi (TX)

They towed my car for being parked at the GUEST parking spots. Even though there is a sign that says “GUEST PARKING ONLY”.

This company stole my 5-year handicap placard when picked up car. Returned everything else in the car that was in glove compartment, under seats, in back area, etc but not the ONE AND ONLY thing that was on the drivers side. Really? What company Steals from disabled? To the police department I go and refuses to give me the owners name. If your Texas handicap placard is stolen, report it immediately to your local police department for documentation, then contact the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) or your county tax office to apply for a replacement using a police report and Form VTR-214 to prevent misuse and get a new one. Misusing a placard (using a stolen, altered, or borrowed one) is a serious offense in Texas, leading to significant fines (up to $1,250) and community service, as the law protects disabled parking access.

Was driving to work just now and saw a pink one of their vehicles pass a red light late and speed down McArdle.

I’ve called this place 3 to 4 times in just this weekend to pick up a truck parked on my paid reserved spot. All they keep saying is we will have someone head that way and nothing. All weekend I have not been able to park my car on my spot cause this company still does not come for the truck! You have a contract with the apartments to tow cars that don’t belong on those spots. Do your job! That’s money for you all! It’s frustrating and annoying as the idiot that doesn’t know what reserved means!!

This towing company are total leeches!! They towed my car even though we had registration stickers clearly visible for our apartment complex! We had to drive 15 minutes out of our way just to pick it up and had to miss work, and they wouldn’t even provide any release forms or paperwork! Total scammers and way overpriced

This tow truck company is supposed to tow vehicles for the Retreat apartments. They take OVER AN HR to come and tow vehicles that are parked in residents carport! I have to keep calling every hour on the hour because they never show up. It’s a waste of my time especially staying up all night when I have to work the next morning! But they don’t care. If someone is parked in my carport spot I expect them to come immediately.

The fact that a towing company can be contracted by an apartment complex to tow my car at my private residence I PAY for is beyond me. I’ve already talked with my complex, so no need to worry there. I hope the owner sleeps with both side of the pillow warm running a predatory business like this. Way to be the worst kind of community member.

Towed my friend car on Halloween and she was only been at my place 3 hours. Really predatory company that works for apartment complexs

At the price I pay and having lived at my residence for three years, I was denied their services over a car tag simply misplaced. I called and waited a whole hour after checking on my sick sister I drove to go see coming home to find someone in my reserved spot. I do not recommend third Coast recovery as it's only convenient for them behind their desk to get paid not to send out anyone to render aid as their services intend and as they left me waiting a whole hour for me to call back and then tell me they couldn't help. I will be seeking new services as well as reporting who denied me. I do not recommend third coast recovery.

Towing people’s car at apartment complex when confronted by car owner. Tow truck Driver asked for payment upfront before he moves tow truck from in front of car and pockets the money.

Very poor customer service... will have no problem towing your car but when you report another vehicle nothing gets done. Hangs up on you mid sentence. Has a lot of attitude when answering the phone and also purposely will let it ring after you called. i wish I could put 0 stars but 1 is the best I could do..

I will say it was my fault for it getting towed. I went to a girls new place to hangout for a but at night and she forgot to mention that yellow spots are reserved. So my car got towed and when I was going to leave I couldn't finde my car and thays where I had to search for what towing service took my car. She didn't know at the time so when I finally figured it this dude on the other side confirmed it was my car and couldn't drop it off or pick me up to be able to pay him. It was an 1 hour and 30 minutes from where I was and he couldn't pickup someone at 3:30am. She took me their and the cost was $204.38 cash and $211.38 card. Way to expensive just to get my car back especially since I just got new tires and the wheels realign. When I woke up in the morning to check on my car he scratched it on the bottom front and a bit on the top grill. Trash service if I could I would sue

Wasn't parked anywhere i shouldn't have been was in the guest parking . Valid registration and insurance. And they still towed my shit. This company just looks for a quick buck

Illegally possessed my car from a private lot without proper signage, employees swore at me, and there is no actual proof they have any form of licensing from the Tx DOT.

I mean.. let’s face reality, they’re a towing company and just like bill collectors, lawyers, debt collectors, etc, - this company probably doesn’t even care if they get down to a 1-Star, because let’s face it.. they’re a tow company and they’re doing their job. They’re not here for the people. If it’s your fault and you get your vehicle towed, just get it out and go on with life because you won’t get a glimpse of a remorse.

They are straight trash and we all should get together with a legal council and put this company out of business. I have witnessed them take mine and other vehicles out of my apartment complex everyday for a year, I had the appropriate stickers registration was current and insurance was valid and they stole my truck anyway and charged me 204.47 to get it back.

If you work at a towing place you are just a cruel person with no compassion or empathy! You took my car seats! How are me and my kids supposed to get to you! After saying “what am I supposed to do walk with my 1 and 2 year old? Then she tells me “well mam we are open 24/7” implying that I could possibly walk with my two kids to go get my car! Poor excuse for people and business!

Woke up to our car towed! Check our cameras come to find out not even 10 mins after coming home from getting my husband from work they came and towed our car because of no perment when ive lived here for 4 years with no porblem. The parking lot was completely empty as well so its not like there are parking problems. Edit. Come to find out from our office that they havent enforced towing in years so why is this happening after getting our new car.

Predator towing company! I have video from The apartment complex showing they towed my teenagers vehicle from a guest parking spot. Looking at reviews, this is a normal Occurrence with these lowlifes! Make sure y’all Are contacting TDLR and filing a complaint! Shut these thieves down

Here’s the facts no emotion: our apartments are contracted with this company, we pay for 2 parking spots, we are up to date with our payments, our tags are all valid, AND STILL THEY TOOK OUR CAR. When I called to figure out what the problem was the lady told me to have my property manager call them to have anything done about it or I would have to just pay the fee. This is unprofessional and completely illegal.

I had the misfortune of having to call these people this evening because someone was parked in my leased parking spot, and this outfit is whose number is on the signs at my apartments. I initially spoke to a lady, who was awesome, but I forgot to ask for an eta. After waiting an hour, I called for an eta. The lady told me she thought it would be half an hour. So, I waited another hour and a half, then called back for an eta and a man answered the phone and started yelling and swearing at me. Like rage yelling. Then he hung up on me. Finally the person that parked in my spot came out and moved her car, so I called back to let them know I no longer needed a tow truck, that the vehicle has been moved, and once again, this guy was a total jerk and hung up on me. I can only assume he was never going to send anyone anyway, based on his behavior, but would’ve hated if somebody came all the way over here for nothing.

This company towed a visiting car from my apartments this morning violating lease agreements with my apartments and refusing to let the car go. They do not pay attention to what their doing they just take peoples cars without any thought as to what their doing.. these company is a joke and full of crooks.. I am taken this to a small claims court..

Unfortunately my vehicle was towed on Saturday the 14th, in the Point parking lot downtown! They charged me 207.00 bucks to get my vehicle out there yard. When I called them they said they had it. I went to there location and the lady was not helpfull what so ever! They are a company that does predatory towing! They scratch my front bumper all up! The lady was rude and would not give any information what so ever! I will be trying to resolve the damages with the owner! I will be contacting them Monday!

Rudest people I’ve dealt with in a long time. The workers are extremely shady and have no compassion. Anybody would be frustrated having their car towed, but they are not professional at all and will give the same energy you give the them instead of trying to calm you down. My boyfriend was busking for three hours and got his car towed. One man that works the night shift was actually cussing at him. While trying to pick up his car, they claimed they didn’t make a record of it. Fortunately, he got his car back but regardless it’s still unprofessional. Really fishy that they are still up and running considering all the illegal activity they have gotten away with. I would not be surprised if this place didn’t have a license to run a business. Third Coast Recovery needs to be investigated.

Illegally towed my truck out of my carport that i pay for. Tex. Occ. Code § 2308.253(d) and (e) specifically say its illegal to tow a vehicle from private property on the basis of expired registration or license plate. They come early when you're asleep to take your vehicle and give absolutely no chance to let you use your legal rights of paying the drop fee. Must be nice to have a profitable scam business

My Apartment Complex contracted them to move my vehicle because they decided they were going to resurface the parking lot without enough advance notice. They damaged my bumper by putting a big gash on it. this was a new bumper that had been replaces at the beginning of the year. Sent them photos never heard back from them, resent them two weeks later and called them and they just refused to acknowledge they had damaged the vehicle, the gentleman I spoke with sounded like he was just waking up. I have filed a complaint with the Texas Department that issues their towing license, just finished submitting the information they requested.

No STARS!! It must have been a slow night. This towing company literally, took my car from the guest parking. When I called to inquire a justification, I was repeatedly hung up on. These cars in my pictures aren’t being towed. They are selective as to who and from where they tow! When I asked for help from the property. The assistant manager boasted she enforced that rule?! I bet they are receiving kick backs for every tow. Very SHADY business!! BEWARE OF THESE VULTURES
