Not wishing to be told full details of operation (comparing systems) but if my car is at home and someone breaks in and nicks my keys switchs alarm off and drives off does this switch the tracker of as well?

i dont think so. i think you ring up tracker and say your car has been nicked and then they can find out there where it is

What i mean is if you dont know it has been driven away then does it mean the tracker does nothing until you phone them.

apparently "retrieve" requires you to ring Tracker.
"Monitor" *should* do just that. Do a google search on tracker monitor and Im sure the tracker site will come up.

Thats why a decent alarm system is required.
I had a COBRA alarm fitted and a TRACKER MONITOR (tracker retrieve i think you have to call them in any event), even with the keys, you had to key in a 4 digit code to open the doors, (you could just use the key but then the alarm activates anyway).You only have one go at getting the code right, then it opperates a 30 second delay whilst a loud tone sounds, after which if you still have not managed to get the code right, the alarm sounds and in turn activates the tracking system.

My car was recently picked up by a recovery Vehicle and we manged to drive from Southend to Rayleigh [5 miles] before they rung me on my mobile [1st contact number]to query the status of my vehicle

I have just had a tracker monitor fitted to my car for the insurance company, I sent the proof of instalation to them and they either lost it or the Post office have lost it. Anyone know if you can get another or a duplicate?
