· If someone breaks down in the middle of the night and service facilities are closed what is the policy for a tow? Dispatch can set up to tow to the customer’s home and have the customer call back the next morning. HOWEVER, they will only tow to a customer’s home in this type of event. Normally they will tow to a repair facility only.
· If someone has used their 3-tow allotment for the year and they call for another tow will Roadside Protect offer to get the person a tow and explain that it will have to be paid for or is the person just told that basically they are on their own for a tow? The dispatch agent will let the customer know they have used all their claims, but they can set up service for them as a cash call with no reimbursement.
