We were in Tempe near Mill Ave. on 4-13-2013. We parked in a lot with other parked cars that had no clearly visible tow away zone or no parking signs. We came back after 40 minutes and the car was gone. After searching the lot we found a small sign in the back corner in the dark that said it was a tow away zone. One would have to hunt for this sign, as we can attest.
We retrieved our car the following Monday for 120.00 from Monster Towing.
I have done research on line and discovered that this is a common practice by Monster Towing. They tow from unsuspecting people who park in what appears to be a safe place because the signs are not clearly visible. I also discovered that Monster Towing has an F rating from The BBB.
How unfortunate to go to Tempe, spend money to support their economy and get punished with an expensive and inconvenient tow charge.
