Skytag feedback
Apologies if this is in the wrong section, no where else seems appropriate.

I'd just like to put on record how pleased I am with skytag-gps, their product and customer service.

I ordered a unit via Matt at FCX that arrived when I asked for. The product was easy to fit with simple instructions. Guy at Skytag couldn't have been more helpful in answering initial technical queries, through commissioning the tracker "out of hours" via his personal mobile to assisting with set up of the live tracking facility.

I now have access to create my own custom geofences and alarms whenever I want.

Once again, for the cost involved, it's very cheap peace of mind as another layer in your security system.

Hats off both to Matt at FCX and Guy at Skytag. Chris

I bought one too from Matt a few weeks ago, on installation phone call they could tell me exactly where it was parked and email me the screenshot of location. I too am very pleased. Mr. Green

Just wanted to add my comments to those above. I've had a Skytag on my D2 for almost a year and a half and really happy with how its worked. I dealt direct with Guy at Skytag and as already stated he was really helpful also assisting me with a non Skytag issue out of hours whilst i was on a long Overland road trip on an event i was running in the Arctic Circle. I was able to log my complete trip and export (again with Guys help) it direct to Google Earth. I can also confirm that the Geo fence facility has worked every time I've broken the vehicle movement curfew with a alert arriving on my mobile almost immediately. Great value and piece of mind combined with really professional and friendly customer service.

Got to agree Skytag are great, Ive got Night Safe on mine but Im also RNLI Crew so can be called 24/7 Explained this to them and they have set up a corridor from my house to the station so I can drive between the two and it wont set it off ( Also handily covers KFC and other local kebab shop lol) but if some one drives out side of either the station or house area then it goes off.

Have a skytag fitted to the 110 and I shall echo the comments above, they are incredibly friendly, helpful and accommodating, even sorting me out with a few different locations during different times of the week due to my movements. Always have peace of mind!!

Great.

What package would I need if it moves around a lot? Being able to quickly set the overnight location would be useful. Mine lives at mine, my parents, an airport if I'm away with work (fairly often).

Setting 1 or even 2 overnight locations would be pretty restrictive!

Just to give another view. I've had a few issues with Skytag. Not reporting that I've left my geozone until I was at my destination. 20 miles away. Their excuse was there was no signal. But I drove through the centre of Bristol, so would assume lots of signal. This wasn't a 1 off either.
Sent it back, they tested it and sent it back. More non signal events, eventually sent it back and they upgraded the 3G chip to a 4G chipset and a more sensitive GPS module. Not had it fitted long enough since the upgrade to give honest feedback. 110 D250 SE HT
