Hi,
I reported an incorrect speed for camera 8428 on Monday.
Looking at the camera map I now see that it has a correct speed against it.
Does this mean I should be receiving my free subscription or has someone beaten me to it again?
Cheers
Mark |

Can I refer you to this:

I won't point you to the one immediately before it, but it says much the same thing .
As it says on the download page for THIS version of the database:
Quote: | PocketGPSWorld.com Speed Camera Database Version 6.014 23 JAN 08
All members submitting the first report of these static cameras will be credited with lifetime memberships by 17:00 24 Jan 08. |
If everyone who submits a camera correction asks MaFt to check it out individually, we'll never get a database realease!
So patience is a virtue...  |

Ok point taken - I was just curious
I was never very patient as a kid - waking up at 2am on Christmas morning

Must admit I was the same...My parents never forgot the year I got a toy roulette set from Santa.
Imagine the sound of ball bearings in a roulette wheel at 2am! |

changes to mobile sites are not included in the free membership criteria, just the addition of new ones
Quote: | Criteria for Free Lifetime Subscription*:
1. The first person to accurately report a new fixed site.
2. The first person to accurately report a change to an existing fixed site i.e. change of type, correction of location, move etc
3. The first person to accurately report a permanent removal of an existing fixed site.
4. The first person to report a speed correction or submission of speed data where none previously existed for a fixed site.
5. New reports of Mobile sites will also now qualify BUT because such sites are very difficult to verify, it should be noted that validation may take significantly longer than for other types of site. Note that the Free Subscription will only be added after both verification (once it goes 'active' in the database) AND further reports have been received.
We verify all submissions and you will be notified if yours qualifies. If you are successful we'll let you know (there is no need to send us an email to check) and automatically extend your current membership. As before, you must be a current subscriber to benefit from this offer.
