ANOTHER BRIZEY 'BLAG' - SKYTAG 'TRACKING DEVICE' BUNDLES - EVERY CAR SHOULD HAVE ONE.

Hello Wannabay

In a similar deal to the recent ‘Blagged By Brian’ offers, Volkszone has managed to negotiate some healthy discounts for VZi members with several companies and this time it is with Skytag.

The bundle, which includes the SKYTAG Locate GPS Tracker device, connection & activation and three months monitoring, normally sells for £249.99 but VZi has managed to 'blag' a deal where it will only cost VZi members £85 - a massive saving, just for being a VZi Member.

The Skytag GPS tracker is an exciting new, comprehensive stolen vehicle location service that can locate and track your vehicle anywhere in Europe, within metres.

Skytag's monitoring system is the only system to provide direct Police access to live, real time location data. This unique feature speeds up the recovery process and enables the Police to monitor the vehicle from a distance, reducing the chance of a high speed chase and damage to your vehicle.

24 hour 365 days a year UK monitoring service, low cost and contract free.

Direct Police access to their real time mapping system and the ability to report a theft at anytime. Dramatically increasing the chance of recovery.

Skytag liaise with the nearest police command centre to your vehicle location, speeding up the location process.

Monthly GPS tracker equipment test and operational heath check, reported to you via text or email.

Simple installation reducing cost and increasing the GPS devices security.

Fully transferable covert GPS tracking device that moves as you change vehicle.

Once installed Skytag send a certificate of operation to your insurance company.

They can even tell you when your vehicle battery is getting low.

THIS OFFER ENDS AT MIDNIGHT ON FRIDAY 31st DECEMBER 2010.

We would like to say a huge thanks to Guy Topsam and his team at Skytag and those behind the scenes at Volkszone that make these great ‘blags’ possible - watch this space each month for details of further ‘Blagged By Brian’ discounts and deals.

We realise that these products or services aren't going to be wanted by every single VZi user, but every penny saved in these times is a bonus - and we are sure that these discounts have helped at least some VZi'ers save some pennies. If this 'blag' is of no use to you, we apologise for any inconvenience, we will continue to bring you discounts on varied and useful products each month - just for being a VZi Member - so, at some point there will be the perfect 'blag' for you.


Peace and love,

Team VZi

I am very intrigued too, seems to be a cracking deal!

this was on their website:

Skytag announce 100% money back guarantee.

Skytag are pleased to announce that as from the 1st July 2010 all of our trackers come with a 100% money back guarantee.

Skytag has announced another industry 'first'- We are so confident that we can recover your vehicle, should your Skytag fitted vehicle be stolen and not recovered resulting in a 'total loss' payout from your insurer then Skytag will reimburse the customer in full for the locate system, this includes the initial purchase price, connection fees, delivery and all subscriptions paid.

Guy Topsom, MD of Skytag commented "We believe fitting a vehicle with Skytag is the best way to protect your vehicle or assets, so much so we are absolutely confident that we can recover them in the quickest possible timeframes. Some other tracker operators rely on outdated RF technology and focus their recovery efforts on ports, this may sound like a good thing but the truth is they have few other options. Skytag tracks vehicles across the whole of europe because we use GPS technology and do not rely on receivers fitted to police vehicles, these have a range of just 1-3 miles and in fact very few patrols carry the equipment." Of all the vehicles stolen in the UK most are disposed of or broken up for spares within the country. These will potentially never come within range of a patrol vehicle with the required equipment or container port. However Skytag are able to track these vehicles easily even if they are taken to a remote commercial unit or farm building or 'cloned' and used on the roads.

Skytag boast a number of serving police officers amongst their clients, all too familiar with the limitations of other tracker systems, they have chosen Skytag to protect their vehicles. One high ranked officer recently purchased a £50,000 motor home to enjoy his retirement exploring the UK, Europe and beyond, needless to say, his first choice was to fit a Skytag Locate system.

Guy added "We aim to give our customers complete peace of mind and of course we're keen to encourage as many people as possible to install a Skytag locate system. By making this promise we hope to reassure our customers that we have 100% confidence in our system and we're prepared to back it up fully. Now they have nothing to lose - including their vehicle!

To qualify for the guarantee the Skytag locater must of course be fitted and active and have passed it's most recent monthly test. Subscriptions must be paid up to date and not in arrears at the time of the loss. The locater must be fitted to the vehicle that Skytag has recorded on our system at the time of loss. Refunds will be paid upon request and are subject to receipt of payout details from your insurance company.

I'm all for getting one of these, my only concern is the battery.
It's easy to just disconnect the battery, and then how long until the run out of juice?

I thought about the TISO system.
