A company to be trusted and applauded.

I recently purchased a particular wiring pack from ActiveGPS to enable me to have my SatNav device hardwired to my vehicle.
Within a few days my purchase arrived, but when checking it, I realised one of the wire connections was not appropriate for what I needed.
After contacting ActiveGPS to explain this issue, they agreed (without quibble) to allow me to return the product for a full refund.
My refund was deposited into my bank account within 5 days of ActiveGPS receiving the returned wiring pack.
I consider that to be the actions of a good, honest, and reliable company. Well done ActiveGPS.

The mount seems absolutely fine

The mount seems absolutely fine - just as I'd hoped. Although not the fault of ActiveGPS, I had a long wait because it got stuck in Royal Mail's system.
