When will my Start 20 be legal to use in France

Since the beginning of January TomTom have been promising a "fix" for French speed cameras.

 

To date they have abjectly failed.

 

Their latest effort on the 7th March finally allowed me to use MyTomTom to delete the cameras but I now get a message that there is an update awaiting! :smileysad:

 

Guess what! It is to install the very same camera file that I deleted.  :smileymad: :smileyfrustrated:

 

Even deleting the camera file doesn't stop my Start 20 from showing my local speed cameras.

 

So like many French owners of TTs when are we going to have a TT that is fully legal?

 

Or are you waiting for some gendarme to take one of us to court, (where of course we will send you the bill), to test the legality or not of our TT device.

Re: When will my Start 20 be legal to use in France

This one is a bit annoying, but hopefully will be sorted soon now... I just can't understand, if we could delete the French speed cam, and they don't send any French stuff OTA, how is it there yet??? I assume it didn't really delete the file.
