Garmin are tops again

[+third-degree-witch]

Garmin amaze me again..The internal speaker on my Nuvi decided to expire so off it went for repair. A few days later brand new Nuvi delivered,including EVERYTHING i already have...mounts etc etc. Top class service,especially as they had replaced my Vista C with a brand new one a few weeks ago !.As i happen to know a certain someone at Garmin reads this forum............Thanks Garmin,very impressed

I'll also add my impressed thanks to Garmin for returning me a brand spanking new etrex to replace my one with a missing page button and loose rubber band. I'll now be able to contribute to threads about waas/egnos.

 

Thanks Garmin.

Does anyone with a Nuvi know if there is an easy way to get the microphone jack off the back of the unit so it fits in its little carry case? Only had mine a few days and I have to use a fair bit of force to get it off - I'm worried I might break it. (I have read the manual!)

Not sure as I only have the nuvi 300 which doesnt have a microphone, but if by microphone jack you mean the bit that sits on the ball joint, there should be a tab on the bottom that you press

Yes that's the bit. Pressing the tab doesn't seem to release it. I wonder if its just because its new and needs loosening up a bit. Its a minor irritation though. Otherwise a brilliant gadget and chuffed to bits that I can use it as a blue tooth hands free for my phone

On the few occasions I have dealt with Garmin, I have been really badly let down by long queues on the phone, which often end up being cut off before talking to people, and a 4 week+ turnaround time for replying to emails.

 

I did manage to get my faulty GPSmap60 replaced, but it took far too much time and aggrevation. I can honestly say from my experince, Garmin have only shown terrible customer service.

 

I am glad however that others have had a better experience than I in dealings with them.

Good old Garmin again! My faithful etrex, which had a couple of faults and some cosmetic damage, went off to Garmin last Thursday, and yesterday I received a brand spanking new one in the post, no charge. You gotta love 'em.

 

Incidentally, can now dismantle Nuvi satisfactorily - I was having a senior moment
