When the laptop was stolen (it was in a backpack in an unlocked car) we contacted Lojack. (Keeping the box is helpful 2 remind yourself that you have Lojack on the laptop, but all the info is on the website.) They told us 2 file a police report & 2 give them the report number. We did. We could contact Lojack 4 status reports. They put us in touch with the LAPD detective, who called us when he got a search warrant & then called 2 say he had the laptop. It took four weeks. We only got back the laptop, not the backpack with the peripherals & other stuff, but we were very happy 2 get the laptop back. I recommend Lojack 4 Laptops.
