The process of losing something is highly personal, intrusive, and invasive. At MatrixiQ, we believe that if you work hard to get something or somewhere, then nobody has the right to take it away from you. We feel it. We share it. We understand it. Itβs personal. The assets range from classic cars, caravans, boats, to more business type assets like plant equipment, trailers etc. Each have a value which may be sentimental, commercial, or the loss of which leads to large consequential loss and upheaval. MatrixiQ have over 20 years of experience in the telematics business, and specialise in finding, securing and recovering these valuable assets. Using virtually undetectable technology, combined with a highly developed software platform, and a highly effective trained staff who can cover all of the UK 24 hours a day, we are able to achieve a very high recovery rate and hence lessen the pain for customers, both emotionally and financially.
