When I got mine fitted you paid for 3 years in advance and then it was for the time you owned the car. That was five years ago so not complaining.

i dont have mine fitted yet, but its gotta be worth it, only ever seen them track cars on tv, lol but they do find a fair few if the car is reported stolen quick enough so they can get a good signal lock.

mine is currently active but do you really want your car back if it is stole and had its arse thrashed by a couple of idiots :nono: .
when the next renewal comes ill be going somewhere else .
rac trackstar has gone down because of the vat cut only pay £10.99 instead of £11.00 :freak3:

thats true, suppose it depends on how far they get with ur motor. problem these days is a car like a scoob, if they can get away with it, they will make sure they trash it b4 they run if police on onto them

Take care. Not a good idea to admit that your tracker is now inoperative, on a public forum?

IF... You had tracker installed but NOT activated and it was stolen, do you think if you rang tracker and paid the subscription they would activate it there and then?

I've a tracker, and so far so good. I've had a couple of times when i've been doing some work on the car, disconnected the battery, within 5 mins i've had a phone call telling me about it! First year was £120, im about to renew, £200 for as long as i have the car.

I had to have 1 when bought the car, as directline would not have insured if is was nicked.
Paid £320 for as long as i have the car or it was £120 per yr, coming up to 4 yrs of owning this car now.
P.S my prems did not come down 1p, but like said they told me if it was nicked them i deal with it.

No they won't most will take your money and then tell you that they cannot help for 30 days IIRC, it'e been tried before and failed.

Would you be better off spending your money on Blackjax or something similar.
