Vehicle Tracking Device

[delrodney]

Guys,

Any of you have any idea if the "1" has a tracking device fitted as standard?

If not, I'd welcome any recommendations. Cheers.

Insurance due NOW and am moving from Elephant, (cos they are too pricey this year - despite being with them for the past 6 years or so). Tesco aggressively priced and if I avoid the "Value" package, I get free "business class 1" cover.

Many thanks.

Trev, yes it has a tracker as standard. you should get a yearly renewal for the tracker subsciption...

also, i was with elephant last year, and a couple of previous years, and the quote for this years renewal was crap, and thats before i even told them about the mods!...

I would call again as most of the time when you deal with the tracker people they don't know their arse from their elbow?

Why would your car not have a tracker when it was part of the WR1 package?

[delrodney]

ok, will give them another call.

i didn't have it activated when i bought it - should that make a difference?

[WR1 Bro]

No idea mate. I would be speaking to the supplying dealer!!

:lol:

give them another call, and ask to speak to someone that knows what they're doing. i would have thought they would have all been active for the first year of ownership. with the vehicle you should havea tracker certificate IIRC. someone may want to correct me on this though.

can i ask why you are tryingto activate it? is it for insurance purposes? i know insurance co' say it's a must, and others (elephant dont give a flying f**k)

it'll cost you circa

RAC Trackstar sent me my neighbours installation certificate. Neighbours name on envelope but my address

F'ing muppets! How can they manage that? I've lost count of the amount of people that have trouble with trackers!

[Mwarabu]

No idea - they even said I dont exist on the database - even after dealer sent them new owner details and everything...

Finally on Monday after 2 months I got my installation certificate - the correct one!! Rang them to make sure I am on the dataabse ( although I was put on temporarily when I bought my car - dont know what temporarily means )

Previous car I had a Tracker Monitor on it ( RAC Trackster competitor ) - when I sold the car I called them and faxed them the details saying I no longer own the car ( they have a form for that ). After 1 year they send me a subscription renewal form

[Mwarabu]

Back home the Tracker company is brilliant - and they call it "Third World / Developing country"

[WR1 Bro]

Where is back home?

[Mwarabu]

Kenya - YAY

[WR1 Bro]

Watch out for "JP Wr1"... He was from Kenya. I'm not sure if he logs onto the site these days.

[Mwarabu]

Have you ever been to Kenya Bro?

[WR1 Bro]

Have you ever been to Kenya Bro?

No mate... but I'm partial to a cup of coffee!!

[Mwarabu]

Next time I go back home will get you some fresh coffee and export quality tea

[delrodney]

back on topic.........

spoke to them this morning and they managed to find my car at last!

told them i wanted to activate the unit. they said i had to go for a drive so they can establish if they can "track" my location. if successful, they will send out the necessary forms. so, as long as they send them to the correct address, , we'll be sorted!

as for insurance, went with privilige at

Lucky you!!

Ive just bought WR1 no. 418 and they can trace my f'ing tracker.

Say it there but there's a problem. Want to charge me
