TomTom announce the New range of GO devices one week before

The email I received this morning said I had pre-ordered it and I had to actually give them a ring to confirm it or they would not send it out!
Strange they say they are sending it straight out to you as they had to confirm with me that I was prepared to pay the extra price as it had gone up since I pre-ordered it.

Even stranger then if you actually had to phone them, I received three mails from them today 1 - RELEASE: payment details to easydevices.co.uk, 2 - Payment details to easydevices.co.uk & 3 - Your order has been dispatched from Easy devices & that's it there was absolutely nothing for confirmation of any sort..

Obviously a spanner in the works some where & I'm really in two minds whether to keep it or phone them first thing tomorrow, explain the situation & refuse delivery.

This was what I got!

we now can confirm that we have allocated a unit to yourself, our expected

Once I phoned them I then got two further emails with the RELEASE details on

Thanks Jean at least I know this hasn't happened to every one. Another strange thing is that I got two mails from SECPAY the first was for what I thought was the complete price & the second was for £1.01 with a different order # so I really do need to phone & have a chat with them in the morning.

I do think that I may keep it though, the problem with the Nuvi I have is that it does not except multiple destinations in fact it only will except two. If I am correct the 510 has "Itinerary planning: Programme in the schedule of places you want to visit before you leave the house" which sounds very much to me like multiple destinations. If any one out there knows different please let me know. :D And if I do keep it the Nuvi won't go too waist as I'm sure a member of my family will soon adopt it. Smile

After I phone them in the morning I wll post the results just in case there are other people in the same position.

Strange...

my email from Easy Devices told me they now had them in stock, I had been allocated one and I was to contact them if I no longer wanted it!

... even more strange because I had previously phoned them to tell them I was going to be away from home a lot and was worried in case I missed out due to not getting the email and they promised they would phone me on my mobile to check I still wanted it!

Still I'm happy because one is in the post to me this very minute. :D

Well I for one am very disappointed. When I rang easy devices yesterday they insisted it would be with me before 1pm today! I queried the fact that it was a bank holiday yesterday and they said it would make no difference - I would have it before one!
Not received it Sad

Presume it will be tomorrow now but no one at home during day.
Bad news there.

Easy Devices are based in Edinburgh and in Scotland many people work on bank holidays - there is a system of 'local' holidays instead - diferent dates for different towns/cities!

Even so I was a bit taken a back when you said you were likely to get it today. I was was told today or tomoorow. Frustrating though isn't it!

Sorry to hear that Jean but for what it's worth mine didn't turn up either, Royal mail at fault maybe?

Bond007 are you local to stansted or were you just passing through, I only ask because I live about 10 min's from terminal.

Just got an email saying it has been dispatched today and given a tracking number.

I have written to them saying I am disappointed by what the young man told me yesterday although to be honest I didn't really expect it today.
