Steamboat Neutral Newbie April 21, 2005 Author Share April 21, 2005 Car Tracking at a Cost Picture obtained from Car Track Singapore By Danny Er 20.01.05 Trying to sell an insurance type of service - that takes effect only when the car goes missing- can be really difficult, but imagine having to sell a service without showing potential subscribers the actual product. That is what Car Track Singapore has to do. Car Track is a company that offers car tracking services when your car goes missing for any reason especially theft. But get this...you'll not be informed on the location of this particular device, which is said to be the size of a Walkman weighing about 400g. It is in the company's policy not to reveal the technology and the location of the device that is implanted on your car. This is to prevent any chance of its system being hacked into and jeopardising the other customers. So to convince the customers on their service, they will provide two tests for the customers to track their car when they are signed-up members. To test the system, subscribers can call at any time to track the location of the car. Nicholas from Car Track reveals that some customers may find it quite ridiculous that the device is not revealed to them, but the majority of customers who are interested tend to go for it after the initial apprehension. Locates Car in Minutes He relates one case where the driver didn't respond to a car rental company's request to return the hired car. Appoint notification by the company, Car Track located the car in Toa Payoh in a matter of 10 minutes. Even if the thief disconnects the battery, the tracking device has a back-up battery that can last about 2 years upon installation. The change of battery will cost about $38. Car Track does not participate in a physical on-site tracking of the car, but instead informs the car-owner of the car location usually through the phone. They are advised to make a report with the police before starting to track the location of the car. Measuring up the Cost of Prevention Car Track charges $648 for the device they install, $80 for its installation and about $12 per month for its subscription. Car Tracking subscription is something like insurance. Car owners will only chance upon having miss out on its omni-presence after their car decides to go missing on one seemingly fine day. As the initial shock starts to set in, franctic calls to the police and searches on the roads are usually fruitless. Insurance will only pay you the present maket value, which is much lesser than what you've originally paid for the car, even so with a loan. The success rate of tracking a car is close to 100 per cent. In the event that it can't be track, the company has a refund policy, which includes the cost of the unit and the unused subscription paid. The service is taken up mainly by those who take frequent drive-ups to Malaysia, since the device can track a car located anywhere in Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia. But as the hackney saying goes: prevention is always better than cure. Here is a car tracking service that gives you peace of mind especially on those frequent trips across the causeway. I'm quite sure the petty thieves would be shock by use of such a sophisticated device. Car Track Singapore is located at Vicom (Kaki Bukit) Centre 23 Kaki Bukit Avenue 4 #02-04 Call 6848 8435 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang_kilat Neutral Newbie April 21, 2005 Share April 21, 2005 ummm, just a question. if ur in KL and the signal Rx station is in SG? how's that gonna help you in any way? from the way i see it and from the way u described the m'sian police ineptness, by the time police even gets around in tracking your car (read:car stolen > Signal Tx > SG > relay to M'sian Police (KL perhaps?) > Search & Rescue?) wouldnt it be too late already? ummm, just my 2c worth... obviously, putting a thousand dollar system, the benefits should outweight the cost. but after reading what u went through, i thnk is justifiable for your case. on a side note, i heared somewhere that if u go to M'sian hospital and need surgery, u actually have to PAY(?) for the equipment that they use on you? anyone heared this before?? cheers~!
