Do you press ur alarm once or twice to lock, I always used to press twice as used to dead lock previous cars but disables deadlock and alarm on the golf.
I read this from another member just before christmas on this forum. Can honestly say I'm so annal about locking the car I literally stand next to the car, press the button once and place the key in my chest pocket of what ever jacket I'm wearing - never have anything else in the pocket just incase something presses it. Anal I know but thought it would help.
On a separate note - if this was to happen to anyone else, make sure you keep a log of everyone you speak to; time, date and where they are/who they are and what they've said. Its been a NIGHTMARE with the police and insurance companies (Aviva and Orange).
Spoken to so many people and each person has given a variant of the previous person. Without me doing the above i think i would have been really stuck.
GMP. I have a real gripe with them at the moment. Complained twice about not having a crime reference number, received a phone call at 11.40pm last night, officer was at my front door at 1.30am to take a statement.
yes, 11.40pm and 1.30am. Waited in the house as there request from 8.00pm 17/02/14 till 1.30am 19/02/14 to take a statement that lasted 7 minutes.
Got the crime reference number now so things are slowly moving on....
