Navman Sat Nav maps updates

Good Afternoon

does anyone know where I can get a Free Sat Nav Uk Map updates from?

I went on the A1 last week and it still tells me to go round the roundabouts that arent there anymore. I know Navman want around £70 for an update but there must be a free update somewhere.

Thankyou

    Have you tried the place you got your free sat nav from? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Don't think I'm being rude, but what gives you the right to expect data for free? This is a money saving forum, not a search engine to assist in digital theft.

    I feel that asking for free or even reduced cost maps is saving money.

    I feel shoplifting and theft is saving money too, but there is no place for discussing them here. :rotfl:

    I take it you're aware that Navman and/or the mapping company they use own the copyright to mapping data for their satnav units, and that distribution of that data is completely under their control?
  • Instead of paying £150 for detailed maps for my Garmin Edge 605 I download opensource maps from talkytoaster dot info I believe these maps also work on car satellite navigation systems and are routable.

    The maps are also updated every few weeks so are very up to date.
