At present we have five verified Specs@50mph there - that's only a couple or so in each direction for now, so not many warnings. If you can see them on your device, they should be warning you - check you have set warnings for Specs@50.
We also have a number of reports of Specs for which we are awaiting a verifier to check them - with Specs, we invariably get a multitude of submissions, many of which are poorly located duplicates (not incompetence, just difficult to hit the button at the right place when moving). Have you yourself tried reporting any? - I know you've already got free lifetime membership, but every additional report helps.

Do you get any warnings for any of the 5 verified cams in the database? |

If you feel safe to make a couple of screen taps while driving, one of these techniques will pinpoint them very accurately.

If they are on the database, they are considered "live" There's no way that camera warnings can be switched on or off for individual cameras.
Can we establish a couple of things?
First when you say you can see they are on there, do you mean you can see them on the submission map?
Can you also see them on your TomTom when you go to "Browse map"?
Can you see ANY SPECS cameras in "Browse map"?
In other words, is it just the WARNING that you are missing, or are those cameras not on your device at all?
Secondly, have you tried setting up an "advance planning" route from the M1 just before J32 to J33 and checked what happens as you go past each of the five current camera locations?are these the

OK, I have been up and down that stretch of the M1 this morning unfortunatly the way I saved the positions are just as favorites and they dont show me coordinates as I would have thought, anyway, 5 out of the six specs are on the submissions page. they do not show up on the unit thus no warning.
M1 north bound the missing spec is at the junction where the M18 meets the M1 with cameras facing onto M1 & M18.  |
