Car Search vs GPS Tracking Systems

[Ted_v2]

Cool thanks, will work on getting it installed.

Good Morning Tuners

I used to be a customer of car-search. On the contract you sign, you are required to initial next to a clause that gives car-search the authority to use "any force" necessary. I really do like this concept. After I have been terrorized and traumatized, I do want angry men with shot guns giving these bandits real therapy - fatal therapy.

However, what cause me to leave is their customer service and workmanship. The CSR's suck and their workmen. After they did an install for me, the side panel never lined back up, clips were broken and also they re-wired my alarm system which caused issues (wing mirrors to focus backwards in reverse) stopped working.

On they other side, had two "accidental" triggers with car-search and them men don't play. Absolutely brutal.

Yea, dem don't mix matters.

My system was triggered a day and I didn't have my phone on me. They had called to see if I ok and when I didn't answer they set out to retrieve it.
Had called home and I got the message a few minutes later. Had to verify my location and provide proof that I was ok before they call off their men. They also asked me to bring in the car for them to make a check.

Car search is car thief worst enemy.

does anyone know if tstt/digicel sells a certain type of sim for use in GPS systems?

i see most of these gps companies providing a sim that you dont have to top up, are they putting regular post paid sims in all thes devices?

Bumping this thread.
Hearing from a couple colleagues in TTPS that thieves immediately search for GPS devices, since they can't really be hidden and the vehicle integration limits placement.
Thinking to go Carsearch instead for my new ride.

plenty of the newer companies have wireless battery powered systems

you can hide it anywhere on the vehicle, in the seats, fully magnetic so even in engine bay or on chassis etc

and you just need to charge it for a 4 hours every couple weeks

its what type of sims they using i wanna know

I found this to be contraindicative as well. When I offered to supply my own digi-cell SIM card which is what most of them use, they declined saying they would provide their own sims which I found quite strange. I would like to provide my own sim with exclusive access, but it seems this wasn’t the approach.

Aside to our GPS partner higher up in the thread, do your research.

I say car search is the best bet aside to their shitty workmanship and CSR. Them men come to kill and you have to initial by a clause “retrieval by any means necessary”

which branch you went? Curious - might avoid that one

St. Augustine is the head office and it’s there I went when I had my previous vehicle.

So which one better?

I recently got car search. They told me i need to call them then they will go after the car.

I don’t think if you have this package you need to worry about them getting any alarms and will try to go after your car with you driving it.

I seem to recall someone saying, whether it was in this thread or another, that Car Search was alerted and called them after they removed their battery terminals.

I have recently come across Gaffar GPS Solutions in south. Does anyone have any experience with them? Their Facebook reviews are pretty good.

Car Safe?

In order to avoid a lawsuit, since everybody getting sued these days - one of the groups on this thread had an excellent PR campaign. However, when you call, the CSR has no clue about their products and what they offer. This was unacceptable - it doesn't take much sense to put someone to answer the phone who is competent and who is knowledgeable.

I've been communicating over the last week with another group based in south and their experience is so much better. They've even invited me to come in and see how their system works. Really good customer service - I haven't made the time to swing by as yet though....will do and come back to your guys.

Gaffar said they work with TTPS to do free recovery.

[slingingshot15]

Yes they offer recovery

[Redman]

Yes they offer recovery and NR8 is very correct- Baari is very accessible and the support is great

Any1 has carsafe by air support tactical security? Any good?

I would like to know same. I've been checking out their offerings but put off by the fact that their devices have to be externally charged every 2-3 weeks. Someone like me will definitely forget about that after the first couple times.

[sickbad]

Feel i gonna put 2 car search stickers on my car and 4 antenna pon top

same here. 10 years with car search @1150 with Pmart card discount.
also thought about making a false call to see it they actually have live tracking.

[dogg]

are there other businesses that offer discounts to pricesmart members? Or is it just Payless and Carsearch?
