Hi

Why are TomTom charging extra for the UK speed camera subscriptions? I thought I would buy the camera subscription from TomTom and have the updates. I was shocked to see their web site wanted €69.95 for UK but only €39.95 for France, Belgium and the Netherlands.

Thanks for the site reference. TomTom have gone right to the bottom of my list. It’s a total rip off with no excuse that I can think of.

The difference between tomtom's version and pocket gps version is that the latter relies on the information that the users provide. If you see any discrepencies, let them know and they will update.
