    Simply go to 'My licenses' in the options setting when you run 'Maps' on your phone and enter your License code. This code will give you FULL UK navigation for 12 months, but the Uk and ROI are normally sold as one region so should be fine.

    I have purchased it fine using paypal.

    Phone compatibility

    Does it work with the New Ovi Maps?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    Ordered anyway for the sake of 5 pound, Did they email you the code or ship it to you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,441 ✭✭✭✭jesus_thats_gre


    Wondering the same :) ordered it anyway too :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,883 ✭✭✭pa990


    got it as well

    I presumed it would be txt'd to me. Hence why they needed the phone number.
    I put my phone number in as 003538xxxxxxxx

    Here's hoping that it arrives.. by text or email


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan

    Ordered this too, wonder if it'll be any use. Don't really use the gps on my 5800, i do the odd time i suppose, but for 6/7 quid it's a good deal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    For anyone who hasnt updated the New ovi Maps 3.0 on 5800 is fantastic and hopefully this code will work with it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,297 ✭✭✭Ri_Nollaig


    i have the nokia n78, maps do come in handy so have jumped on this!
    thanks a million Davy.

    Downloading the maps are free. Its the voice guide that nokia make you pay for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    Does it work with the New Ovi Maps?

    Yes, codes are transferred and usable using maps 2.0 or 3.0. Even if you change phones, the new phone can still use the remainder of the 12 navigation subscription.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,691 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Dan did you get the code yet, I got the same email as you..

    thanks Davy..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    No Code Yet, and Yes Map or Free but its actually Navigation your playing for not just voice......I've been using thr 7 day trail and overly impressed with 3.0.. And thanks for the Info on 3.0 :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 259 ✭✭alanucc


    Out of stock!

    Sorry for the slight diversion but I was thinking of getting the 5800 soon... I understood that you could use the GPS in some manner without a subscription? That the subscription is for voice directions?

    Yup... that an the nav. i hve teh 5800.
    you can use everything else, but it won't calculate a route or give you directions (and on Maps3, which is out now, you won't get the 3d BUildings either!)

    It will be posted afaik.

    Not sure as of yet, if i hear anything from them i will post.

    This is a subscription for voice navigation like a stand alone gps eg garmin, navman. Without the subscription, the maps program is just a map on the phone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,691 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Quick question lads, I've just the standard Nokia Maps application that came with my e71, should I be downloading a different program to get the best out of this licence key when it arrives...

    Voice guided proper navigation would be nice, is that what I bought?

    Yes, the code is for voice navigation.


    Yes i would recommend downloading Maps 3.0. I prefer it since i updated from version 2. You do not need to do it now, you can do it at any time, even after you enter the code into the phone.

    Download it here: http://europe.nokia.com/explore-services/maps/download-maps


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,992 ✭✭✭Johnny Storm


    THANKS Davy! Have you actually received this?
    On my phone Nokia Maps 3 says 12 months of "Drive Europe" is €59.99

    I just ordered this.

    Just after I ordered I noticed UK only - D'oh! I was hoping to use it on holidays (edit: in France).

    Also FWIW some bad comments about "PrePayMania" here: http://www.ciao.co.uk/Reviews/Prepaymania_co_uk__6861980

    I haven't received it yet no, i just ordered a few minutes before posting it here. When i do, or if i get a mail from them i will let you know.

    This code isnt drive europe, its for uk, but uk is never sold on its own, its always sold as uk and roi thats why i posted it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,992 ✭✭✭Johnny Storm


    Cool! Thanks again, Davy.

    They arent sending you mapping software. You have to download that yourself


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    I ordered this yesterday and nothing but the standard mail:
    "Your order will be shipped pending credit card approval."

    Can anyone that has ordered please confirm whether they received a follow up mail saying shipped. Is the license key posted by letter or email?

    Im guessing its just an automatically generated email, and the code is just sent via standard post, what do you expect for a fiver ;)

    I certainly hope not. Mine was sent on friday, and often can take 5-7 days to arrive from the uk so i will wait till then before i go on the hunt.

    I received my code card this morning in a big brown envelope.

    Entered the code and got to choose which Sub I wanted - Drive Europe, Drive America, Drive India etc etc.

    Works fine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,691 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    I got mine as well, struggling to update the maps on my e71, Nokia Maps updater dosen't find the phone, I've tried running as administrator but still no luck, picks it up fine in pc suite, any ideas, I want to update the maps before entering the code..tks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48 gmailer


    Lads, got mine delivered today and i updated it by going into the phone and selecting the "my licenses"
    entered the code and it came up what region i wanted like, usa or europe.
    selected drive europe and happy days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 557 ✭✭✭Squeaksoutloud


    Was just looking at it half an hour ago and it said limited stock. When I went back in my browser and was about to buy it it said 'Out of Stock'. Aaaargh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,864 ✭✭✭MunsterCycling


    Been out of stock for days, I'd say you just missed the part where it said it.

    update to the most current version of the map loader program, and connect the phone using mass memory rather than pc suite.

    And you can enter the code now and upgrade to 3.0 later.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,825 ✭✭✭Gambler


    Just an FYI - I used the contact us form to see when they expect to have more in stock and to see if they would still be at a discounted price when they are back and this is the reply I got:

    "It is unlikely that they will be coming back in stock.
    Regards"
