GPSnvision is Fleet Tracking Made Simple. Fleet businesses that invest in and utilize the features of the trackers reap the benefits and realize long-term returns on their investment. Because, however, there are also many short-term goal orientated scenario’s for GPS vehicle tracking Plug & Track GPS has a “no return” policy. Examples of short-term goals might be where a consumer is interested in using a GPS device to find out if a spouse is cheating on them or a business wanting to know if a particular employee is misusing company vehicle assets while off the clock. In both of these scenarios the user could find out within days what is really going on and therefore no longer have a use for the tracking device they purchased. This has led to abuse of money back guarantees.

If you are running a seasonal business or require tracking devices for only portions of the year it may be best to put the device in “Suspend Mode” when not in use. Suspend mode suspends the tracking device and subscription fees, allowing it to be reactivated at a later date. Written confirmation via an email to support@gpsnvision.com for any unit that needs to be transferred into or out of “Suspend Mode”

No, for reliability and security Plug & Track GPS uses a custom APN (site to site VPN tunnel) with static IP for each modem (a separate pipeline if you will from the standard voice/data network).

Replacing the SIM in the Unit will void the warranty on the device.
