I've used them around 20-30 times and usually just asking them to send locations to the car that I can't be bothered to look up on Google while I'm driving.

There is this thread below where we were trying to find the weirdest request.

So when giving them a lift, contact the Conceirge girlie.

Said 'could you please find me a Pole dancing club in Wolverhampton?

She said ' A Pole dancing club?'

Yes said I.

She then came back and said nearest one was Birmingham, bugger says I.




So then I asked if she could find a Lithuanian dancing club.

That way at least one of the temps would be happy



Well what else would you call a Polish night club

You didn't know the way back home to your wife??

I've generally used concierge only for Nav destinations when I'm running late or can't really find a location via normal searching. Great feature though.

Strange, did they say to keep on the phone?

Or did you / they hang up?

Never had any issues at all with them.

I called up to get my horoscope which a friendly chap gave me. I then asked if I was entering Uranus and the phone went dead...not sure why.

Always wanted to ask them, when the sat nav is programmed, "are we nearly there yet?"
