Linking Your Mobile Phone To Your Hire Car

[Hymie]

What with the holiday season about to start – this might be a timely warning.

You may not be aware of the potential dangers of doing so, connecting via USB cable or blue tooth – but it least my Nokia 3310 has very limited ability to do these things.

What danger ? What warning ?

[Hymie]

Don’t worry chairman2001 – mobile phones are a fairly recent technology, only having been around for around 25 years. Maybe you might get to see someone using one while walking along the street.

Oooops. I thought that was an just Ab interfering ad. Apologies.

It's not something I would do, I won't even connect to any public WiFi. My own satnav has a local pub as my home address. I'm not sure if I'm sensible or paranoid

Oh ! That must account for the large number of units you knock back each week then ;-)

And always make sure you do a factory reset when you sell your car.

If the car and phone are not within range of each other there's no connection.

That range is not great

Don't sweat this stuff

What's wrong with a good dose of paranoia?
