Complaint about Bangalore in Waze facebook page

Post by AlanOfTheBerg
Sorry for English. Post from "Sajan Ds" in https://www.facebook.com/WazeApp about problems in Bangalore:

"Waze, Help. Its not showing correct roads in bangalore. Its always re-directing me in the other direction away from the destination."

and

"I am sorry but its the same thing since last 2 months. I am using blackberry curve 9300"

If a local Area Manager could contact this person and get details, that'd be great.

Thanks for the response. If there's nothing which can be done, well, that is just the way it is. I appreciate any actions you are able to take. Maybe we get this person onto the forums and see if they want to be an editor? :)

EDIT: I did send him a message on fb directing him to the website here.

Thank you! Become an area manager yourself and locked segments will not matter. :)

Hi I am not sure about Area Manager of Banglore, I will try to search for one and send him/her PM on Forum and best we can do is hope that he/she sees it...

The major problem in India is no Initiative like advertisements from WAZE side... so very few people...
so many Area managers are leaving the editing cause not much users/update request.

So, my first forum post. I am from bangalore & joined waze just a few weeks back. I could help here.

Waze is definitely usable and I advertised it to some of my friends. I did find waze routing a bit weird sometimes. When I attempted a few edits on badly created junctions I found that segments were locked. I don't know how to contact the area manager or unlock these segments. Of course, the multi-week delay in showing my updates is painful as well but I am keeping myself updated with the status/infra changes and hope for faster updates...

Yes, I'll read a bit more about area manager, use waze for a few more weeks & then make the request for area manager. :)
