Wouldn't be much good to me as after the 'repair' in Holland I can't type a postcode in to Navigate to.

Moral of the story - don't complain to TT as they take your device for 16 days and then return it in a completely unusable state with more faults than it had before.

You might have missed THIS sorry tale John...

Rest assured Andy knows exactly what to do to get it back to how it was before he sent it in.
But the whole point of sending it was to show that TT were talking out of their behinds when they assured him it needed a "repair" when it's really issues with the software causing the problems.

He's now got PROOF! Twisted Evil

And now I have a knackered screen as well.

When I press S on the keyboard, I get e,r,t,4,5 all light up in quick succession for example

Not every time though - if you are really gentle you can just about get a postcode in

if im in the wrong ill put my hands up but the road is not that well signposted with no right turn signs.
thanks for some of the comical advice. i know where not to ask next time. Rolling Eyes

Guys, if we can give the mockety a miss please. Look at this.

I do also urge you to post your case over at Pepipoo, it's a dedicated site for motorists and you will get the best advice re. your case. If there is a defence or loophole then they will know.

Anyone got any photos of the junction in question since the changes?

It's at Latitude: 51.54652 Longitude: -0.08576 but Google Streetview seems to show it before it was made no entry.

I just wondered how hidden these new signs are....
