 This is a review of TomTom Customer Services! September 5, 2010

I already have a TomTom satellite navigation system and use it regularly. I rate this as a 5 Star product. I shall soon be travelling extensively throughout Europe by road and recently saw an opportunity to purchase a spare unit quite cheaply at a sale. Although an older model, the unit was still boxed, absolutely complete and appeared to be unused. It would not, however, switch on but, thinking it needed nothing more than charging, I took a chance and bought it.
I tried everything (As did my local store) but the unit simply would not switch on. Eventually, I contacted TomTom Customer Services and told them how the I had obtained the unit and that it was "NOT" under guarantee. Their service was exceptional. Firstly, they sent me a small package containing a cardboard box which, when assembled, fitted my TomTom unit perfectly and would clearly protect the unit whilst in the post. Secondly, the package also contained a Royal Mail "Special Delivery" envelope complete with address and tracking number. Postage and insurance were already paid by TomTom.
Within 24 hours of my posting the unit back to TomTom I received an email confirming receipt and within 7 days I got another unit back. TomTom had REPLACED my unit free of charge with a brand new and exactly the same model and ALL under guarantee!
So for those of you who are contemplating purchasing a TomTom satellite navigation system, I thought you might like to know about this company's follow-up customer services system. They are quite excellent and I hope this message is useful.

Great product, very easy to use with all the menus set out with ease of use in the car in mind. The widescreen is brilliant as have used smaller tom tom's before an can be hard to read when you are driving as well. The quality of the screen is superb as well.
The stand is a great design. Just clicks on and off very and is a lot smaller so its easier to store away.
All in all a great product and when I am lost in Spain I will be able to find my way :-)
 Painfully slow replanning September 1, 2010

This was intended to replace my aging Tomtom One. New features are brilliant but planning and re-planning is painfully slow - for example if you miss a turn - you are better of putting the hazard light on and stopping while the Tomtom takes its 30 secs to recalculate the route. My old Tomtom one is much much quicker.
I will be returning it.
Great - does the job - why only four stars? August 25, 2010

Bought the TomTom and then drove my car across four countries in Europe. Did the job nicely. I had to change the voice to a New Zealand character to get metric instructions.
PROS:
The extensive point of interest database is very good. Found a hidden beach and a nice market town in Holland by search out nearby POIs.
The mounting clip is very good and makes for quick removal of the device while leaving the suction cup in place.
Start up and shutdown is very fast and satellite acquisition was never an issue.
The advanced lane guidance is very clear and helps on the big motorways.
CONS:
My only criticism is the lack of the feature to navigate to a grid reference. Other models of TomTom have this feature but not this one - why? Some hotels are not in the database but I had GPS coordinates from [...] and was unable to input them. The only option was to navigate to a street and sometimes a street number is not supplied. Loses a star for this.
OVERALL: Very good value for money.

Having spent the last 4 years using Co-Pilot sat nav software on an XDA phone this move to a dedicated device was really welcome. I have to wear glasses for reading but not for driving so i find the larger screen size of the XL spares me the bother/ danger of having to put my glasses on whilst driving in busy urban traffic. The unit has coped well with trips accross the UK and France. I like the ability to swap voices and even change the car graphic so quickly. The internal memory size is too small to hold maps for all of Europe but the workaround of splitting the maps into 4 (overlapping) European regions and uploading when required will satisfy most people's needs as it will still hold maps for several countries at once. Great device, easy to use.
