I rung to tell them some of the positions for cameras local to me were up the creek - seemed to be missing from the DB.

One was already there, the other wasn't.

Not heard a thing...

Yes I have reported them.
I see a pattern emerging - someones beaten you to it ?

So if this happens enough times someone on here eventually must receive something.
Anyone got any contacts to follow this up ?

Cheers

Mark

Ok , this is what you do. You tell them a new camera has been put up. THIS IS NOT TRUE.give very precise details as to where it is.
Then when they say someone else has "Reported" it make a note of who you have spoken to. Then tell them the truth and go to all the Motering media ,unless they give you a nice cheque.

Could this work??

Reported two, never got a call back. They called back pretty sharpish when I wanted an upgrade.

I would also agree with Jack, of 4 Cameras I reported, two brand new, two had been there a year, only ever got a call back on one. Interesting that the two cameras which were a year old must have been notified to them since I last uploaded the database...........THE NIGHT before I reported them !!!!!!!

something is afoot methinks !!!

Me as well - I've spotted 6 in the last 7 weeks (10500 miles!). Seems I've been beaten to all of them.

Good theory Stephen , but how do you explain the absence in their database of two cameras that had been installed for a year, and still it would appear I was pipped at the post !!!!!
