Lost my keyfob!

Lost a keyfob for the Freely the other day through what I think is shoddy design / workmanship (specifically the little bit of bent tin that you are supposed to use to attach it to your keyring) so it is lying in 2 foot of grass in a field somewhere. Anyone else had a prob with this? If not, suggest you replace the attachment ring supplied with your fob as soon as possible to prevent the same thing happening to you, as a new programmed fob is £186!!!!!!! This is clearly daylight robbery as it must cost all of £5 to make. Land Rover obviously weren't interested in meeting me half way on the replacement as they could not verify a faulty / poor quality fob as I had lost it! Really helpful, not.

Happened to me also the link stretched and fob fell off

swapped to a decent ring but occasionally that slips off the larger keyfobs ring now, just like my leatherman micra keyring tool does Evil or Very Mad Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

have you tried re tracing your step? Maybe with your car, you never know you might step on it and see your hazard lights flash Whistle Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
