Terrible of TomTom to reduce their prices! Can't believe they would treat their customers so badly :D

OK, I know I started it, but I think we've all given our opinions on whether it's reasonable to expect TT to reimburse people who bought at the higher price. Let's leave that aspect of it now before it turns into a slanging match.

Ok so if they've taken away the monthly options what happens to teh existing people (liek me) who pay for it monthly. Will that carry on ?
Mind you at this new price it's half price comapered to paying monthly

If TomTom do not automatically stop the monthly subscriptions it can take up to three months to get out of them. They want at least a months notice then another month is paid for. Even if you can cancel your credit card payment TomTom see that as a breach of contract and you lose any outstanding time you have already paid for. I have been through this when my monthly payments stopped.

One other thing is to check the small print, my first annual subscription was for UK Live Services and my second was for UK & Europe Live Services. Just make sure the new service is the full roaming service. It may be all subscriptions are now full roaming.

I'd have thought this worthy of being a front page news item:

TomTom took my last monthy payment on 20 May - does this mean that unless I pay for a year, my Live services will now cease without any communication from them?

I would check with them if you haven't heard from them.

I've got confirmation from TT this is a permanant price drop and not a "special" or limited offer....

I just noticed that if I check my services on my 540, it says about my subscription ending in in 32 days and would I like to pay £47.50 - however if I say yes I get a message saying the renewal service is currently unavailable Sad

From a TomTom press announcement (at GPSBusinessNews): In addition, customers who already paid one year subscription will see their remaining months of services to be doubled and those who pay €9.95 on a monthly basis will see their invoice reduced to €4.95.
