A remote system for validating telematics device installations, the system comprising: at least one data storage operable to store telematics data collected from a telematics device installed in a vehicle; at least one communication interface enabling communication with the telematics device and a computing device operated by an installer over a network; and at least one processor in communication with the at least one data storage, the at least one processor operable to: subsequent to an installation of the telematics device in the vehicle by the installer, receive, from the installer, a device identifier corresponding to the telematics device; determine whether telematics data was received from the telematics device in a predetermined time period subsequent to the installation based at least on the device identifier, the reception of telematics data from the telematics device signifying that the telematics device is operational; in response to determining that telematics data was received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period: present, at the computing device, an indication to the installer that the telematics device was correctly installed in the vehicle; receive, from the installer, vehicle information associated with the vehicle; and store, in the at least one data storage, the vehicle information in association with the device identifier; and in response to determining that telematics data was not received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period: present, at the computing device, an indication to the installer that the telematics device was not correctly installed in the vehicle; and store, in the at least one data storage, installation information in association with the device identifier, the installation information indicating at least whether telematics data was received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period. at least one data storage operable to store telematics data collected from a telematics device installed in a vehicle; at least one communication interface enabling communication with the telematics device and a computing device operated by an installer over a network; and at least one processor in communication with the at least one data storage, the at least one processor operable to: subsequent to an installation of the telematics device in the vehicle by the installer, receive, from the installer, a device identifier corresponding to the telematics device; determine whether telematics data was received from the telematics device in a predetermined time period subsequent to the installation based at least on the device identifier, the reception of telematics data from the telematics device signifying that the telematics device is operational; in response to determining that telematics data was received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period: present, at the computing device, an indication to the installer that the telematics device was correctly installed in the vehicle; receive, from the installer, vehicle information associated with the vehicle; and store, in the at least one data storage, the vehicle information in association with the device identifier; and in response to determining that telematics data was not received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period: present, at the computing device, an indication to the installer that the telematics device was not correctly installed in the vehicle; and store, in the at least one data storage, installation information in association with the device identifier, the installation information indicating at least whether telematics data was received from the telematics device in the predetermined time period. subsequent to an installation of the telematics device in the vehicle by the installer, receive, from the installer, a device identifier corresponding to the telematics device;
