Another update... this morning I wrote an email to Clifford asking them why their alarm is not working on the Astra, and I just had a phone call from Hyde Park Corner (the company who sent out the mobile fitter), apparently they are going to send out a "senior fitter" next week to remove my existing alarm and install another brand new Concept 300. The saga continues... | |

Out of interest, is it only limited to the 300 or does the 600 also have reported problems? | |

Sam, I had a problem in Oxford with all the taxi's - their radios seem to operate on some frequencies that can mess with the alarm :| | |

OK... the alarm guy was at work yesterday from about 4.45pm-5.45pm, he plugged in his laptop to the alarm ECU thing, and the codes came up as basically one or both of the doors have been opened, which is why the alarm was triggered off. | |

I think if it's still not sorted after today I might go to a proper Clifford dealer round here and just pay to get it fixed properly, and perhaps write one of my special letter of complaint to Clifford about Hyde Park Corner. | |

yeah, but it shouldnt mate! cos these cases are rare, and installers have told me that these alarms are the best..if they are installed properly, looks like the bloke is a bit of a monkey, tell him if its not right, u want the money back to get it fitted properly! | |

I know it's probably down to a shit installation and/or faulty component(s), but it kind of puts me off buying Clifford alarms in the future... :( | |

sounds pretty unlucky mate, loafofbrett, it does totaly rely on the engineer installing it, cos my 300 has been fine after 3 months (after tuning the sensitivity down) | |

Anyone ever had dealings with them before? | |

quote: I would! Since it went off last thursday till now I just put it in valet mode whenever I get out of the car, that way I can actually drive my car and can go to sleep at night without it going off! You know, when I had my old Corsa, it only had a £250 Meta alarm (non-Thatcham), the only thing I had to do was just change the batteries in the key fob! :rolleyes: | |

As some of you may know, I recently had a Clifford Concept 300 fitted to my Astra a few weeks ago, ever since it's been fitted, I've had numerous problems with it, basically the alarm going off at random times of the day/night, sometimes when I try to stop it screaming through the whole of Oxford it doesn't want to know. |
