Navigate to POI issue

Hi,

when I use the "navigate to POI" menu and select "POI near you" and then select "Police station" it shows the nearest ones as being a "commissariat" about 89 miles away ? Can anyone tell me how to rectify this issue so that I get local ones shown.

Thanks

Well, I was going to suggest you go get yourself a decent set of POIs! However, I did the navigate to police station myself on my new GO920 and was surprised to get very local ones (albeit, not my local one in Keynsham!!).

From the wording you used, I'm guessing you're using a TomTom device, but you haven't said which model and especially have not said how long you've had it, which map version you've got and what software version you have. It may help to get answers if you provide that information.

Isn't there a sticky / FAQ on this?? Seems to be a daily question.....

Well there's a "sticky" topic here: Solution To Missing Uk 'help Me' Pois And Guides, Wink

but the topics about it on here tend to get a bit buried.

Andy thank you. I have downloaded the file from the link and it works somewhat however it does not find them all by any stretch of the imagination. The database on here seems far more comprehensive but alas you can't use those to navigate to.

Cheers again
