“We” are Matrix Telematics Limited t/a Matrix iQ, and we are the providers of the recovery services. You can find everything you need to know about the recovery services at www.matrixiq.com/stolen-asset-recovery.
We only accept orders when we’ve checked them.
We contact you to confirm we’ve received your order from the broker.
Sometimes we reject orders.
Sometimes we reject orders, for example, because you are located outside the UK, or because the service was mispriced by us.
We charge you when we supply the service.
We will send you an invoice for the recovery services when the services have been completed.
The charge for the service shown at www.matrixiq.com/stolen-asset-recovery is non-refundable, except as otherwise set out in these terms. The charge for the service is not dependent on whether a telematics device and/or vehicle are located as a result of the service. We do not guarantee or promise that the services will result in a telematics device and/or vehicle being located and recovered.
We charge interest on late payments.
If we’re unable to collect any payment you owe us, we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
We pass on increases in VAT
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the service, we adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
We’re not responsible for delays outside our control
If our supply of your service is delayed by an event outside our control, such as a strike, failure of a utility service or transport or telecommunications network, act of God, war, riot, civil commotion, malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire, flood, storm or default of one of our suppliers or sub-contractors, we contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we won’t compensate you for the delay, but if the delay is likely to be substantial you can contact our team at saasoperations@matrixiq.com to end the contract and receive a refund for any services you have paid for in advance, but not received, less reasonable costs we have already incurred.
You’re responsible for making sure your telematics device and vehicle details are accurate

Summary of your key legal rights

You can ask us to repeat or fix a service if it’s not carried out with reasonable care and skill, or get some money back if we can’t fix it.
If a price hasn’t been agreed upfront, what you’re asked to pay must be reasonable.
If a time hasn’t been agreed upfront, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.
We can change services and these terms
Changes we can always make. We can always change a service:
- to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and
- to make minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a security threat. These are changes that don’t affect your use of the service.
Changes we can only make if we give you notice and an option to terminate. We can also make other changes to the service or these terms, for example to the price or the scope of the services or to change the way these terms are drafted to make them fairer or clearer to you, but if we do so we’ll notify you and you can then contact our team at saasoperations@matrixiq.com to end the contract before the change takes effect and receive a refund for any services you’ve paid for in advance, but not received.
We can suspend supply (and you have rights if we do)

- deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
- update the service to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or
- make changes to the service (see We can change services and these terms).
If we suspend the service, we will let you know. We may also adjust the price and may allow you to terminate. We contact you in advance to tell you we’re suspending supply, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we suspend the service for longer than 48 hours we adjust the price so you don’t pay for it while its suspended. If we suspend supply, or tell you we’re going to suspend supply, for more than 7 days you can contact our team at saasoperations@matrixiq.com to end the contract and we’ll refund any sums you’ve paid in advance for services you won’t receive.

We don’t compensate you for all losses caused by us or our services
We’re responsible for losses you suffer caused by us breaking this contract unless the loss is:
- Unexpected. It was not obvious that it would happen and nothing you said to us before we accepted your order meant we should have expected it (so, in the law, the loss was unforeseeable).
- Caused by a delaying event outside our control. As long as we have taken the steps set out in the section. We’re not responsible for delays outside our control.
