Payment and Refund Policy

Call live Kansas City dispatch at 816-588-8888 for current availability.

Read before relying on a digital request or policy summary.

The website does not list verified accepted payment methods, host a payment processor, take deposits, store payment-card information, or issue automatic refunds. Live dispatch must confirm the job-specific estimate, who will collect payment, when payment is due, and the approved payment channel. Do not send full card or bank details through the website form, ordinary email, or text.

Policy terms and decision points

01

Confirm the job-specific amount

Towing starts at $125; mileage and other disclosed charges may apply. Ask which known work is included, what remains conditional, and how distance, vehicle condition, access, loading, recovery, equipment, labor, waiting, tolls, storage, destination, tax, or another disclosed item may affect the total. The unresolved mileage formula is not supplied by the website.

02

Authorize material changes

If the real vehicle or scene differs from the request, dispatch should explain the material change, proposed response, price effect, and required authorization before additional nonemergency work when reasonably possible. Emergency scene control or work already reasonably performed can require a separate factual review.

03

Verify the payee and channel

Before paying, confirm the legal or authorized collecting party, job or invoice reference, amount, accepted method, destination of funds, and contact information through live dispatch. Do not rely on an unexpected payment link, changed bank instruction, QR code, gift-card request, cryptocurrency demand, or message from an unverified number or account.

04

Protect financial information

Do not place a full payment-card number, expiration date, security code, bank-account number, online-banking credential, password, authentication code, Social Security number, or government-ID image in the website form, ordinary email, or text. A legitimate payment step should use a verified appropriate channel and collect only what is needed.

05

Obtain and review the record

Request an estimate, authorization, invoice, receipt, or account record appropriate to the transaction. Review the provider, date, vehicle, pickup, destination, work, quantity, mileage or time when relevant, disclosed charges, payments, balance, and contact path. Report a suspected duplicate, unauthorized, incorrect, or missing payment promptly.

06

Refund and dispute review

A refund is not automatic or guaranteed. Tommy's should review the request, authorization, dispatch, scene, estimate, changed conditions, work, invoice, payment, cancellation, communications, photographs, and stated resolution. The result may be a correction, explanation, partial or full refund, credit, denial, or another appropriate action depending on the facts and applicable rights.

Company controls

  • Do not advertise a payment method, processor, financing option, credit account, deposit, surcharge, refund schedule, or online checkout until it is operationally verified and accurately disclosed.
  • Do not request full card, bank, password, authentication-code, Social Security, or government-ID information through ordinary email, text, or the current website form.
  • Distinguish the $125 towing starting price from a final quote and keep the contradicted mileage formula unpublished.
  • Explain a material nonemergency scope or price change and obtain the appropriate authorization when reasonably possible.
  • Provide a factual review path for payment or refund concerns without promising a predetermined outcome.
  • Do not state that contacting Tommy's changes a bank or card issuer deadline, preserves every legal right, or guarantees a charge reversal.

Important limits

  • This page is not a quote, invoice, receipt, payment authorization, refund approval, credit agreement, insurer decision, bank decision, card-issuer decision, or guarantee of reimbursement.
  • Payment and refund outcomes can depend on the actual service, authorization, contract, provider, invoice, tendered method, processor, issuer, account, dispute timing, evidence, and applicable law.
  • A charge dispute with a card issuer or financial institution is separate from Tommy's internal review. Customers should use the issuer's current instructions and deadlines for their specific account.
  • Job-specific written terms, commercial account agreements, estimates, authorizations, invoices, receipts, processor terms, and applicable law control when more specific than this general page.

Questions drivers ask

What payment methods does Tommy's accept?

The website does not publish a verified payment-method list. Ask live dispatch to confirm the method, amount, payee, timing, and approved channel for the specific assignment before relying on payment instructions.

Can I pay through this website?

No. This release has no payment processor or checkout. Do not place payment-card or bank-account details in the request form, email, or text.

Does requesting a refund guarantee one?

No. The request is reviewed using the available authorization, estimate, work, invoice, payment, cancellation, communication, and supporting records. The facts and applicable rights determine the response.

What should I do about a card charge I believe is wrong?

Contact Tommy's promptly with the job and payment record, and follow your card issuer's current dispute instructions and deadlines. The CFPB resources below explain general federal credit-card dispute information but do not decide a specific towing charge.
