Cool In the POI list for B & Q the colchester store is about 800 yards out. I have the co-ordinates, my question is how do I change them? It is very irritating

On the POI Download page is an option to submit your own POIs:



Clicking that link takes you to the submission page where ones of the options is to 'Change Existing POI'.

Using this you can submit a correction to the POI.

Be advised though that in some cases, the POI will take you to the road entrance to the store or retail park rather than the actual pedestrian store entrance. We do this as some nav systems will not navigate to locations 'off road'.

If this is the case with your POI then we will not correct it, if not then please submit and we will make the changes Thumbs Up

Although you have located the store accurately, it might be better if you had moved the location nearer to the Car Park Access, further down Lightship Way.

As most users will be in a vehicle they could be looking for an entrance in the wrong place. Smile
