Don't want one, got one anyway because my insurance is through the roof... Still is with the box but it's a £700 saving.
They're not brilliant, corner too fast, they moan at you, have to make an emergency stop because someone pulls out on you, they moan at you, stall, and they moan at you, etc.
Not really worth having.
Serious? Fuck that. They ring you up?
Most of them you can log in online to check your score, get a shit score for too long and it can go up.
They are only very very basic trackers, internal aerials, two lives and an earth, usually poorly fitted behind radio/glovebox.
I always thought, would be easy to swap it into another car, like my mothers, or simply leave it in the garage connected up to a battery.

Properly stuffed if you crash though, "so Sir, can you tell me how you managed to crash 10 miles from home when you haven't done a single mile since Tuesday?"

They don't phone but they have a little online dashboard thing, you don't need to do 29mph everywhere, I've done 50 in a 30 zone with the box attached and nothing happened from that, I think they're only turned on occasionally. Another thing I've worked out is that if your radio can't get any reception, nor can the box.
