Reassurance – I Actually Spoke to Someone!

UK Company, UK Support

Every UK business owner knows the feeling. Something isn’t working or a van isn’t where it should be and you need an answer now. Instead, you a chatbot that doesn’t understand the question. You’re not alone; a 2025 8×8 survey reported by IT Brief found that 83% of UK respondents would rather deal with a human than a virtual agent or chatbot.

At Pay as you Track, we do things differently. We’re a small company based in the UK registered since 2014. When you get in touch, you speak directly to our own small, focused in-house team, based here in the UK – never an outsourced call center. That’s what UK vehicle tracking support should look like.

A Friendly Voice on the Phone

Our team have decades of experience in the industry and built our own bespoke software, so the person you speak to understands how it works.

Real people: Ring 0161 914 5500, email or message us on WhatsApp, and you’ll reach our team.
No layers to get through: In a smaller team, you speak to the experts and the bosses from the start, without being passed between recently hired sales staff.
Clear support hours: We’re here Monday to Friday, 8am–5pm. Outside those hours, you’ll normally still get a reply on WhatsApp.

As Rich H put it: “…Great friendly communication from someone who understands and takes the time to resolve any issues or queries we’ve had. First class company to deal with.”
