I guess i'll just have to keep badgering tomtom CS to honour their guarantee commitment. It shouldn't need 2 phone calls and 6 e-mails and 2 days without even a responce though. |
it can take 48 hrs for a response, but even that will probably be to ask for the device number! mine took 5 days from submitting my details to getting my map upgrade and I spotted the e-mail asking for the device code within 1\2 hour of them asking.
moral: give them time, you'll get it eventually. _________________ iPhone 12 Pro

well, after a week without any response, i finally got the e-mail from TomTom and they have added the Western Europe and North American v720 maps.
I don't think it should have taken over a week to get them, but fair play, they got there in the end.
Now i just have to leave my PC overnight to download the whopping 3.7Gb files........Damn VirginMedias traffic management. |

Going off-topic... How do you KNOW when the traffic management kicks in? |

Couldn't find the official statement on the Virgin media website, but i'm sure it's buried in there.
Essesntially, for me on the Large package, if i download more than 2.4Gb between 10am and 3pm i get throttled for 5 hours minimum capped at 1Mb ( as i haven't had the free upgrade to 10Mb), if i dare download more than 1.2Gb between 3pm and 9pm the same applies.
I'll start the download at 9pm, and hope tomtoms servers are up to giving me my full 4Mb. I really can't rely on downloading it overnight and hoping for the best it'll work 1st time tomorrow. |
