I read several reviews on buying refurbished TomTom's. Some said you get a coupon included for a free update and others said that they just called TomTom and they reluctantly allowed them to get the most current map update. I bought a refurbished one as a gift for my sister because I loved my TomTom GPS.
Beware! The refurb unit did not come with a coupon code and when I called TomTom they absolutely would not give me an update. I even talked to the main supervisor and even when I explained that I loved my TomTom and recommended their GPS unit to everyone, he would not budge. I even sent him a webpage from "[...]" which said that every refurbished unit comes with a coupon code for a free update. He said that website is not affiliated with TomTom and they are not responsible for their misinformation. He said he could not make an exception, even as a matter of good customer relations.
Bottom line is that TomTom offers a very good GPS product that I would still recommend to anyone. Just beware of buying a refurb. The unit worked and looked new but if having the most current map update is important, be prepared to spend the $80 or so to get it. Also, hopefully you will not need to count on TomTom to do the right thing if you need customer service.Get more detail about TomTom GO 630 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator (Factory Refurbished).
