Yes, if you own two compatible units then you can get another code for the second one, for free.

Hi all, long long time lurker, first time poster.

I spoke with Garmin support this morning and they're having issues with their database at the moment, hence all the issues we're having, I'm getting the same message too. Apparantley it probably won't be resolved today though.

No you can still get a free uograde. I registered my Unit at the end of November, but can still upgrade for free.

If you still have your i3 box then there normally is a sticker on it saying what version the unit should have. My box has a sticker stating "V9 Maps" However as the V9 hadn't been rolled out at the time, the unit came with V8 maps, but get to upgrade for free when V9 maps became available.

I got an e-mail from Garmin this morning saying they were having problems, and they will look into it and get back to me asap. All they could do was apologise.

You can order your disk now from the site.

nope....still cant order...keep getting this

This Master Coupon Code does not contain any Garmin units that currently have MapSource updates available. Garmin's Automotive MapSource applications are generally updated annually and the Bluechart software is updated twice a year. Please check back periodically to see if MapSource updates are available for your Garmin unit. Click here to return to the Master Coupon Code entry screen

i'm not particularly bothered about the extended map coverage....i just want to see if the nag screen regarding maps being out of date dissavanishes when i do the update Exclamation

I've just managed to order my upgrade DVD - I hope!

Although I carefully followed the instructions I received from Garmin Europe, the order form said "This form is for orders shipping to locations in the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii." Confused

Since the form already showed my address, including "United Kingdom" as the country I decided, as the disk itself is free, to risk ordering it anyway. Will post here when (and if) it arrives.

As I have still kept getting the same error message, under the select country option I clicked "Other" and it then gave you contact details for each Garmin Office.

I have ordered it that way.

E-Mail them direct at this address [url]upgradeoffer.europe@garmin.com[/url]

Be sure to include your name, address, phone, email and product that you are interested in updating. Also tell them the type of mapping required (City Navigator, City Navigator NT, BlueChart
etc)

You will get a computer generated response then saying they will deal with your request asap!

Hope that helps people! Wink

Spoke to an actuall real life person at Garmin UK today and she said the website ordering might be a little hit and miss due to gremlins, but it will be sorted by friday, somthing to do with databases.

I have tried randomly and just got the form to work so it might be worth persisting.

Like Anita, I ordered through the normal Garmin website, have got an order ID, seems hunky-dory so far.
