Tom Tom Maps
So I'm going on a trip to western europe and tried to bring my tom tom over there. I've tried buying and downloading the map through the official site, however it declines every credit card I use. I have no problems using those cards elsewhere so I'm pretty sure its a problem with the site. Is there a place where I can download and put it on my GPS as this is my last resort.
Model is TOMTOM Go930
Thanks

As far as I know, it's a problem with their site. Friend of mine tried to get European maps, but her card failed to go through. After much hassle, The result was Visa not knowing why TomTom declined her credit card, and TomTom not knowing what the problem was.
This might be a longshot, but does BB or FS carry TomTom prepaid cards? I know Garmin has them. You could give that a shot.
Another alternative would be to get some cracked maps and "jailbreak" your gps. But, I have no idea what that entails.

I don't believe there are prepaid tomtom cards. Doesn't the 930 have both USA and Europe maps? My 920 did.

After doing a quick google search, it should come with Europe maps.. I never made a backup so I'm probably going to give their customer service a call tomorrow.
