Recently been threads about selling on Navtrak units from the original owner to a.n.other

This is in reply to queries I placed with Navtrak regarding the potential situations arising.

Not prehaps as good as I'd hoped for but this is their business & how they want to deal with it according to their business practices, warranties, T&C and liabilities/potential liabilities.

Re: 2nd Hand NavTrak units

Following our telephone conversation of this morning, to confirm the 2 scenarios;

1. If the DCU is a Free Box Model (FBM)
The unit must be deinstalled and reinstalled by an authorised NavvTrak technician. If not, the warranty is made void under our terms and conditions.

Costs:
Deinstallation: £60.00
Reinstallation: £100.00
New wiring kit: £35.00
Total: £195.00

The unit still remains the property of NavTrak.
Each customer has to subscribe for a minimum period of 12 months. If the unit is deinstalled before the end of the 12 month period, the original customer is still liable for the remainder of the subscriptions. If the new customer pays their subscription by a 'prepay', the remaining subs for the original owner will be waived by NavTrak. If the new customer decides to pay by means of Direct Debit, the remainder is still due to NavTrak.


2. If the DCU is not an FBM
The unit must be deinstalled and reinstalled by an authorised NavTrak technician. If not, the warranty is made void under our terms and conditions.

Costs:
Deinstallation: £60.00
Reinstallation: £100.00
New wiring kit: £35.00
Total: £195.00

The unit is the property of the customer.
Each customer has to subscribe for a minimum period of 12 months. If the unit is deinstalled before the end of the 12 month period, the original customer is still liable for the remainder of the subscriptions. If the new customer pays their subscription by a 'prepay', the remaining subs for the original owner will be waived by NavTrak. If the new customer decides to pay by means of Direct Debit, the remainder is still due to NavTrak.


So that is the WORD...

I believe that mega_stream will shortly have a group buy price that is slightly better than the best I can provide, but it will still reflect the new unit price in there. There is a potential saving in buying s/hand but poss not as great as expected

Mega's deal in comparison to anything else over the same time period will be competitive with anything else on the market currently available - AFAIK

Bottom line is that any Tracking Device is potentially a monetry saving to you and a way of helping us rid this country (at least temporarily ) of some scroates.

Jza,

I spoke to Navtrak about my unit in my car.
I told them I was selling my car they said as long as I continue to pay up to my 12 months (2 months to go), the unit can be disabled and stay in the car.
The new owner can then enable it by subscribing or leave it in a non working state.
I think I'll be better off leaving it in the car, rather than taking it out and selling it.

Regards,

Rob.

Puff,
firstly, it's Markus here, having to use another account at the moment.

Anyway,
how can one tell if it's a FBM or not? I got mine fitted @ LV Center a while back when you were doing the fab deal on them, then NT changed the way things worked, can't remember which way they changed to/from though.

It doesn't have to be taken out. It can be disconnected and left in the car with no charge as long as minimum contract has been adhered to. This is for people wishing to sell the units to another person with another vehicle, hence requiring de/re-installation.

Markus

Think about your question m8 Your unit has an unique ID number and in their database is down as having been issued as a FBM. I thought you was some sort of programmer?
