GBDO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM SPOT DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM SPOT. They knowingly and purposefully engage in dishonest billing practices. They employ what is known as a "Evergreen Clause" and make it *very difficult* to cancel their subscription services. You will be sorry if you do business with these SOBs..!!

NLSPOT should really change their pricing policies SPOT should really change their pricing policies, the auto renewel without any notice and the increased prices. There is a lack of and unclear communication online and through e-mail. This is so important especially when dealing with international customers where people might be used to different laws and rules. When i found out my credit card was debeted I called and SPOT did refund in the end, gladly. But this is just not the way to go. Also the service itself, i have been on places SPOT couldn't get out a SMS (usually in forests)... Gladly i didn't have to use the SOS service...

GBWish there was less than one star Wish there was less than one star. Went on a monthly plan, they claim it is a yearly contract. Paid for device separately and still locked into service contract with no service. SCAM COMPANY STAY AWAY

GBUNPROFESSIONAL AND UNRELIABLE I’ve been using SPOT Gen3 and Tracker since 2013. Plain Tracker/Tracer for my Down Syndrome son - to keep tabs on him as he moved around on our 600 acre ranch in the Alaska wilderness. Worked ok for that need. I found an app called SPOT BUDDY which worked great since they use Apple Maps for our area and it was clearer than the google maps. The SPOT app is crap btw. SPOT GEN3 was ok but granted - we live in the boondocks and satellites/GPS coverage are not super. Many times folks/friends did not get my messages. They could track me on google maps and I used premade texts as to my whereabouts. Never had to use SOS or even Help from friends. The concept is ok but business practices are definitely shady and unprofessional. To second some of the negative reviews that go back to 2014: - Almost never answer texts on their website by or emails. I’ve only been able to get a human ONCE IN ALMOST 10 years. - Unexplained duplicate $40 charges on my card. When I FINALLY did get a person on the line they tried to barter and haggle with me… unprofessional 😩 Nevertheless I kept the service until I lost my SPOT3 on the Alaska range. Now it’s impossible to cancel my subscription bc they are either out of business or completely fraudulent. 😱 I might have to change my card if I see another charge on it. Looking for another GPS tracker that won’t break my wallet n or get a RockyTalkie radio. Frustrated in Alaska 2/2023

GBAbsolutely horrid Absolutely horrid. Have you ever had customer service so scammy they outsource to Africa? Ever had a situation with any reputable company that they absolutely WILL NOT cancel your subscription under any circumstances and if you want to get out you need to claim fraud with your credit card company and get a whole new card? Me either until now. This company is a syphilitic corpuscle. Don't touch it with a ten foot pole.
