REPORTING A THEFT
In the event of discovering your vehicle stolen you should:
- Call our Secure Operating Centre (SOC) on +44(0)330 220 0339, the SOC will commence tracking the vehicle.
- Contact the Police to report the theft and obtain a Crime Reference Number (CRN).
- Call the SOC immediately to provide them with your CRN, the SOC will then liaise with the Police directly to locate your vehicle.
In the event of the SOC receiving an AUTOMATIC ALERT from your tracking system:
- The SOC will attempt to contact you in order to confirm the vehicle status; the SOC will NOT contact the police until the theft has been confirmed with you.
- You will also receive a push notification advising you that an alert has been sent to the SOC (provided you have the Meta Trak app running).
NOTE: The ‘Caller ID’ of the inbound call from the SOC is +44(0)203 772 1476.
For operational reasons, this number DOES NOT receive incoming calls.
