Good news!
Someone else was on one of the forums recently with a loose USB socket, I wonder if I can find the post?

With a new battery I replaced, my 520T is now fully charged and connects beautifully with my iMac and Windows PC's. All updates now 100% |

The company stuart posted above have been used by a few of my work mates & they are ment to be very good, I'm still undecided if I should get my old 520 repaired or splash out on a new model.
As the tomtom is used daily for work a live version might be handy. |

Refurbished 550 Live from TomTom Outlet Store for £119.99 has a year's free Live Services. (I wouldn't touch any of the newer models).

That was the 550 that Dennis was referring to 
Or were we talking referb in general? |

The GO750 is right next to the 550 on the Outlet Store page and YES it does say a year's free Live services.
But I think you don't get the Latest Map Guarantee.

Yes, a year's live services, but no LMG. They were sympathetic to a phone call as the map on the device was more than 6 months out of date.
