Which Tracker Should You Install for Auto & General?
Auto & General is one of the longer-established direct insurers, dealing with customers itself rather than through brokers. If your car carries a security condition, you confirm it with Auto & General directly, and the device it specifies is a recovery-grade tracker on your schedule.

Get my quotesWhere the clause sits
Look under the security or warranty clauses of your Auto & General schedule and you will find a described kind of unit, not a make or model. The insurer has run on a direct model for decades, so its consultants - not a middleman - are who you ask to pin down what satisfies the clause.
Sourcing a unit that qualifies
The clause typically points to a fitted, actively monitored recovery device backed by a control room. Source it from any reputable supplier in that bracket; for a pricier or export-tempting car, a radio-frequency homing beacon adds cover for the moments a thief jams the network.
Get it cleared, keep it running
Get written confirmation from Auto & General that the unit passes, settle the subscription in your own name month to month, and hand the fitment certificate to your policy file.
