Hi All
received an email for the latest update for my map dated 12th September.
its the last one of the 4 a year but when i click on the download link it opens TThome but theres only gps update available and no map.
i did only download the 3rd map update in August so im wondering if the 4th map is exactly the same so have no new additions to it.

who would the best contact be at TT to find out whats up
thanks
Jim

The last map release was v995 in August and the next will be in November so, typically, TT just sends out a belated invite/reminder for new maps willy-nilly even when you already have it!

Worth a call before it does run out as you should be entitled to 4 releases:- https://en.discussions.tomtom.com/travel-lounge-154/customer-support-phone-numbers-988105

If the subscription ends in Sept that would imply that it started in Sept 2016 so would have had the new 975 Aug 16 map then the 4 updates, 980 Nov 16, 985 Feb 17, 990 May 17 and 995 Aug 17.

just got home so too late to ring as closed now.
but thats a good point.
i may well have missed one of the previous updates as im sure ive only updated 3 since i bought the updates last year.
i dont use my sat nav much as i dont do too many long distance driving.
ive just checked the folder files and last camera update was 25th August so it could well have loaded the map at the same time.
must be me getting old. thank for itemising the map updates.
so i messed up. ill crawel back under my rock now.
thanks for the replys guys and sorry for wasting your time Smile
