Foolishly left the car a couple of weeks, but did not plug in the trickle charger, so ended up with a very low battery. Have plugged in to charge now, but the alarm has gone off and red light flashing in the car and i cant turn it off with the plipper, any ideas?

Disconnect the battery then reconnect and press the key fob immediately afterwards assuming you have a meta alarm this should sort it if my memory serves me right.

+1 for disconnect and reconnect battery and press remote, that is what is in the Meta instructions.

Sorted thanks, the only difference is dont reconnect the battery until the light on the dash for the alarm goes out first.
