I have now written a letter to Clifton A Pemble. I'm normally quite a calm person but this whole scenery with Garmin has really wound me up. Probably won't reply but got to be worth a try. |

Thanks Anita however the data was on the card when sent to Garmin, I'm 100% certain as I checked it on my sat nav before posting. At no time have I ever deleted any files from the card and can't have ... |

It's a bit of a long shot but I don't suppose you would know the name and address of anyone with authority at Garmin UK whom I could write a letter to explaining the situation. Many thanks. |

Just spent almost 1 hour on phone with Garmin this morning, they have tried using map unlock codes but still not working, they can't help me. Now off to Halfords prepared for battle. |

Just tried the SD map card in my work mates Nuvi 2597 and it works with no issues, beginning to think there may be something wrong with my device. |
