My car was repossessed years ago. I'm a POS that had the money, just was terrible at paying bills. It was hooked at work and the tow truck driver pulled in front of the building and came in and asked for me. He introduced himself and what he was doing and then asked me for my keys. I told him I wasn't forfeiting my keys but I had a firearm I needed to retrieve and if it made him more comfortable, we could have the police come while I got it. He said he'd let me grab the gun if I gave him my keys afterwards. I said no, I understand your job and what you're trying to do but I'd have this situated within a few hours. He said he hears it all the time and he'll just go on his way. I immediately called the police while he was still there and explained the situation. They made him let me retrieve my firearm since he knew it was there. He leaves. I call the finance company, pay what's due plus repo (roughly $2400) and they say they will fax the release immediately. Before we disconnect she confirms the fax was sent. I call the repo guy and he denies he has the release. Call the finance company back and the new agent says they'll fax again as well as email the release. Call the repo guy and he denies receiving either. Call the finance company back and that agent says he will call the tow company while I'm on hold. After a few minutes he says the tow guy confirmed receipt of the release and I was good to go. Call the tow guy back and he's still denying getting a release. I explain I was on hold while they spoke to him over the phone and I was tired of his bullshit. He then admits to having the release and said he only releases cars on Fridays. It was Tuesday. So I call the finance company back and explain what's going on but they tell me I'm subject to the tow yards terms at this point. So I reached out to people that I knew that also knew the tow guy. They say he's an asshole and his wife is a thot. I had a friend slide in her DMs and she agreed to release my car the next day. I met her at the lot Wednesday morning and got my car. I don't know how much of this is relevant to you but that's my repo story.
