I'll start this off by saying that last week (11/17) I tried to subscribe to the Map Update Service and it failed. I then tried again today and since I have 8.35 maps and in that week and a half 8.40 maps came out, Home now wants to charge me to update to the newest map for $12 and the update service costs, which are 49.99.
I called support and got "Sorry, nothing we can do". Well, there is a great way to push me to moving to a different company. Then I asked why the Map Update Service is 49.99 and she responded with "I am not sure, it used to be 39.99." Which looks to be about right as that is what the web site shows.
Is there any way in the world to get TomTom to understand that their Home software prevented me from updating in the first place for $39.99? They really seem oblivious to the fact that paying $70 to upgrade my 740 live is stupid when I can drive to Target today and get a new unit for just slight more money. And then on top of that they want me to pay the $10 per month for Live?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I think they skipped Thanksgiving and Christmas and got stuck on April Fools Day.
