Do I have to pay for speed camera alerts?

Hi my TT Go Discover arrived and Im being asked to pay for speed camera alerts, I thought that I received this service free for 1 year?

Hi @uklee1

Hopefully @VikramK or @lampard will pick this up and check and sort out the settings for your unit on the TT servers..

Look back here on Monday when they are back on the forum to see what they say.

I have just noticed I have the same on my GO Premium X.
£0.33 for 'Speed camera updates - Monthly subscription'

GO Premium X has all that included for the lifetime of the
device, right?

Hi @MonsieurPoirot

Hopefully @VikramK or @lampard will check your Premium units Lifetime Cameras etc settings on the Tomtom servers tomorrow and change them if necessary. Look back then to see what they have to say.

Hi @uklee1
Welcome to the community! Please ignore the renewal message on our website. It's already been reported to the team.

Just wanted to confirm your GO Discover comes with 1 year of speed cameras updates as a bundled package with the device.

The updates for speed cameras are offered twice every week-- Tuesday and Thursday. When you check for updates these should be offered as downloads.

Thanks, Vikram

It may be answered. But it is not working. Today I unpacked my Go discover. And yes 'MyDrive' offers the speed camera service for a friendly 2.99 euro per month. Instant activation after paying. It even screws up the .33 euro discount for first 3 months.

Hi @LePoire

You should not have purchased any services on a new Discovery yet so I suggest that you contact Customer Support for a refund and to get them to sort out the settings for your unit so that the Traffic etc works as it should.

I too have a 'pay to activate' button for speedcameras on my account for my
GO Discover 7 and I am currently not getting speedcamera
updates.
I am unable to login to support as that says
'This page is not available'.
So all going well so far.
Who can sort out my speedcameras for me?

It might be worth trying a different Web Browser as I had an issue the other day with Safari but Firefox worked straight away doing the above as I was connected to Chat within 5 minutes.

Thanks Doug. Support does not work on Chrome.
Have used another browser to send email to support.

Hi @MonsieurPoirot

Keep an Eye out here for what @VikramK has to say after he has reviewed the settings for your Unit on Monday. Also you should chance for refund by Chat if you don’t get a response within a few days to your email.
