Evening to all,
Bit of a silly question here....
I heard about your site through a mate, and thought I would subscribe to your site to get the speedcam POI's for my TomTom.
As it happens, I did note a brand new camera had appeared on a road I drive down regularly, and thought I would check if it had been added to your database, it wasn't there, so I thought I would join, and as an added bonus *maybe* be the first to submit this particular camera.....
So what I did,
1) Joined the site time: 20:48
2) Submitted the camera 21:07
3) Pressed the "pay now" button in paypal: 21.14
I got an autoreply about the submission shortly after, and now just checked and it seems the camera now appears as a "confirmed" on the map...
Now I have realised that by doing it in the order I did, I am probably not going to get the extension to my membership.... can you guys confirm that for a silly old numpty?
Cheers and thanks for such a great product  |

Welcome to the forum
If the camera which you submitted is now showing as confirmed, then it's more than likely that somebody else beat you to submitting this location because PGPSW has a stringent verification process for camera locations.
However, I'm not in possession of all the details, so a member of the team will have to confirm whether you were lucky enough to be the first to report this one.
Good luck and keep submitting _________________ Andy

To qualify for the free lifetime sub you would have to be a paid up subscriber at the time of submission.
It looks like you submitted the camera before you paid your sub? |

Even so, if it was shown as confirmed so soon after, it must have been happening already, I'd have thought. |

True. Most likely MAPKOBKA was one of many that submitted the camera and this helped verify it. |
