1. Read the booklet accompanying your new TomTom GO Live 750 which says: "Get £10 to spend on accessories and services ... We'd like to offer you £10 to spend ... register at www.tomtom.com/10"
2. Go to www.tomtom.com/10 and see this:
and register.
3. Receive e-mail from TomTom which says this:
4. There's a step 4, sorry I should have mentioned. It's SCREAM. |

In the meantime, check what the GBP value is for 10 Euros. _________________ Dennis

www.xe.com says €10 = £8.36 ... but that's not really the point. I checked and double-checked the pound signs in the booklet and on the website (that one you can see for yourself above). They are promising me £10 not €10.
I shall indeed call TomTom in the morning (thanks to www.saynoto0870 I shall be calling them on 020 7387 5444 at no charge to me) and I'll let you know what they say. |

Are you on an unlimited call plan then?
Otherwise the "non geographical" 0845 number can be cheaper on BT than a normal 0207 London number (but for me on a Virgin package its a bit more). |

I was offered the £10 off after registering a Go540 and got £10.
Since the current level of discount they are offering "everybody" at present I wonder if they have reduced the £10 off to £8 off between making the offer and registering / redeeming?

If TomTom offered you £10 off then that is quite clearly what you should have got.
On the other hand during the recent £8 off voucher campaign they seemed quite happy to let you have the £8 off more than once as long as you placed more than one order. Very good value for the Active Dock for the x40/x50 series compared to www.dsldevelopments.com and their price for the same item. Especially if you also took advantage of the 8% cashback available on TomTom website purchases by starting your transaction at www.topcashback.co.uk So only just over £18 for the x40/x50 Active Dock delivered from Holland with UPS, although unfortunately the Brodit mount to attach the item to the car dashboard cannot be had for less than just over £14 each at www.mountonus.com

Well I'm the man who put the London 020 number alternative number for TomTom on the www.saynoto0870.com website so I am glad to have been of service.
And whilst the forum moderators are right to say that for those who do not have a call plan with BT covering the weekday daytime 0845 is a cheaper call to make this is not true with any other telecoms carrier other than BT and BT only artificially reduced their weekday daytime 0845 rate as a protective measure to stop Ofcom abolishing covert revenue share altogether on 0845 numbers as they did previously with 0870. Anyone with an inclusive minutes calling plan on a mobile will know to their cost that 0845 numbers are not part of their bundled minutes and often cost up to 20p per minute to call. |
