Lifetime warrantee not honoured on two year old TomTOM

HeatherJN

I purchased a TomTom 860 in 2016. Prior to a trip through Scotland, England and Ireland. The product was sold clearly labelled and confirmed by sales staff to have lifetime map support. I am now travelling to Canada and have booked a hire car. When I attempted to download maps I am told my device is no longer supported.
I believe there must be some error as this is a breach of Comsumer Affairs legislation in Australia. Thus I am assuming I am missing a step after logging in.
Could you please instruct me as to how I down the free driving maps of Canada

I suspect the lifetime maps are ONLY for the region where the device was first purchased, in this case, Oz. That is, unless the lifetime maps were for World maps for a device.

But confirm with support one way or the other as YamFazMan suggests.
