Car tracker- has anyone bought one please- needed to track lying husband

[StepthatPussyUp]

I want evidence before I approach husband and ask him to leave - a chance encounter and an anonymous email has set off this chain of events.

As the title suggests I need a great tracker - I have read reviews and many say they have difficulty in setting up/poor life battery etc so I’m after recommendations here so I can get the proof I need before I take next steps

Sparkfairy- you have absolutely no idea what occurred , so hold back on judgement. It turned out to be a blessing, so many things came out as a result, he's not allowed to be with his children alone, his professional body are investigating him and he's not allowed to work in his field. He poses a huge danger to many. The tracker helped me find out about many things and enabled me to keep myself , my children and the community he served safe. How can that be wrong ?

I’d go on Amazon and have a look at reviews op, you’re not going to get what you’re looking for here. It’s pure bullshit that the second you doubt your partner, your relationship is over. The vast majority, if not absolutely everyone has questioned in their head whether their partner is faithful or not. Of course you’re going to want solid evidence before making a completely life changing decision. If I thought my partner was cheating I’d do the same, legally or not.

I think wanting to use a tracker is a little more than "wavering trust", I'd say that if you are at a point where you are considering illegal stalker type behaviour then trust has done a little more than waver.

Let’s stop with the melodrama It’s not ‘illegal stalker behaviour’. OP owns the car...

There has been a catalyst for this
So you think the correct course of action is to ask him if the contents of the letter are true and believe what he says on face value and nothing more?
Because that’s far more ‘psycho’ than wanting to find out the truth

And having been on the receiving end of completely paranoid behaviour and listen to endless justifications such as yours, where does it end? I was entirely innocent but because ex 'suspected' cheating (and numerous other things) it was okay for him to stalk me? Hack my emails/fb? I didn't have a car but I have no doubt he would have put a tracker on it if I had.

Some lines you just don't cross, and no justifying it will change my mind.

@Sparklfairy

So you’re just projecting then?
Your answers are based on your own negative experience with a paranoid ex rather than the OPs situation

I agree if you're at the tracking stage then your relationship is probably over.

Having said that, just get a mobile tracking app on a spare phone and 'accidentally' leave it in the car then come back and update us on where the dirty bastard had been.

The OP has said she won’t be doing this, so hopefully that’s the end of it. Some of the posters on here need to think about the fact that even though this behaviour might have given them the ‘proof’ they need, it is still very questionable and often illegal to act like this.

If you're tracking him, it's already Game Over.
Leave now with your dignity intact.

Don't be ridiculous. Just because I see it from the other side doesn't mean I'm 'projecting'.

Fwiw, I've also been consumed by that need to 'catch him out', so experienced both sides of the coin. I asked simply, 'where does it end'. That's not projecting, it's a question. If OP can justify this because she 'suspects' and that's ok, would anyone here be ok with being tracked just because their partner 'suspects'?

It's a valid question, where is the line between ok to invade privacy stalk and not?

...I mean if you’re at the stage where you’re installing a tracker I’d say it’s probably over

Gosh, my marriage must have been over the day I bought a car with a built in tracker that connects to an app.

They sell thousands of these cars every year. Who knew so many marriages were over without either party even realising

Sorry no. It’s not ok to track people. I can’t BELIEVE people are advocating that and don’t think for a single second they’d have the same views if the sexes were reversed.

There is a big difference in buying a car that both parties know have a built in tracker and secretly installing one.

Smart phone attached to a battery bank depending on how long you need it to last for. Absolutely no way that can be proved it wasn't just left there by accident.

Don't be ridiculous. The OP's car doesn't have an inbuilt tracker and she wants to track him to get proof before she leaves him. Are you pretending not to understand that?

Save your money for the divorce OP.

If you've got to this point, you're never going to live happily ever after I'm afraid.

"It’s not ‘illegal stalker behaviour’. OP owns the car..."

Quick Google says that actually it is illegal if the person driving is not aware they are being tracked. So yeah, not being melodramatic. Would say using a tracker is definitely on the melodramatic side though.

I think you'll find the point of this thread circling above your head, somewhere up in space...

Sparky fairy - frankly my dear , I don't give a damn what you think ....

I called the police on my ex for doing exactly this, it’s a horrible huge invasion of privacy. I was sneaking about going to counselling/cab to get out of the marriage!

Do you have or have access to apple airpods op?? If you leave them open in glove box or boot of the car you will be able to track them from find my devices on your iphone.

Said every stalker caught out acting like a nut... ever.

Vodaphone curve. (20quid). Five day battery. Just pop in the boot. Very good gps tracker. Size of a key ring.Good Luck!

My friend did this with an iphone in her partner's car boot. She caught him out at a hotel with someone else. However it absolutely killed their relationship as there was dishonesty on both sides.

Christ when your marriage disintegrates to the level you consider tracking yout own husband covertly then you need to give your head a wobble and end it.

What a way to live.
