    Thanks

    When you enter the new code, it will add the 365 days to whatever days you already have. :)

    If you change your phone, all the days will also be carried over to the new phone, once nokia ofcourse ;)

    I received my code card this morning in a big brown envelope.

    Entered the code and got to choose which Sub I wanted - Drive Europe, Drive America, Drive India etc etc.

    Works fine.

    Haven't received mine yet :eek:
    But Drive Europe is what Nokia is looking to charge 60 yoyo for directly so this Bargain Alert was fantastic value. Thanks for the third time, Davy!

    Your welcome johnny.
    Ye i forgot to say about the 'drive europe'. They have moved away from the Ire&UK and the other eu regions and just gone for the one that covers everything so its a huge improvement :)

    You need to download a program called map loader, connect the phone to the pc in 'mass memory' mode ratehr than pc suite and let the program do the rest.

    Download it from here

    Are you using version 2, or 3.0? If you are using 2 i would update to 3.0. I posted earlier how do update it and the link. I click search, enter address, then click drive to and it calculates the route.

    :( I got none yet and was dispatched last friday

    tomorrow i can feel it ;)

    Just a question???

    How you guys doing with Maps keep diapperaing and have to install again.
    I have backup folder so when this happens i just copy it back to cities folder, as europe map is about 1.9 gb so takes long time. :mad:
    any other ideas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre

    No just the Maps data, apparently it's common bug with ovi Maps 3.0 :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy

    Cool, what map version you are using and what countries maps you have installed?

    Did you try to run software updater on the map and is it still there?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    The Same Friday as yourself, Was in Contact with them they said they would email me a Replacement code if it doesnt turn up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    Ye, should be here by now. Glad that the customer service seems good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 333 ✭✭Zilog


    Mine didn't show up by post either.

    Contacted Customer Service via their website last Friday, received code by email this morning, all works perfect. No complaints.

    Looking forward to the next offer from this company.

    Oh, and thank you OP! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 668 ✭✭✭belmulletman


    I've just contacted Customer care... hopefully i'll get a code in email as well...
    mine didn't turn up either! :(

    ordered two the day after the OP posted.
    Got one the following week but the second one never turned up. Emailed them yesterday and they said they would email out a code in the next few days.
    Customer service seems to be ok with this company.

    I am running the one I got and seems good so far, maps seem up to date and navigation is working fine. Only thing that I dont like is you cant browse a route once you have created it. I like to see where it is going to bring me along the way. It seems to be difficult to scroll across the route in order to see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭jimmycrackcorm

    Mine didn't turn up by post, but contacted them on their customer care online thingy and they got back pretty quick and ended up emailing me the code.
    worked no problem!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭fergiesfolly


    Anyone else having problems with nokia maps lately. It won't show the route or play voice directions.its been like this for a while but I thought updating the maps and a new license would help.
