Ok gents I have managed to get my C3 Aircross to activate the real time traffic.
Get in car and turn on ignition, I didn't start engine as in garage.
Once screen has booted select the Nav display
At top press the two pages symbol, called messages icon.
Select connection services
If activated it will say available.
If not press the globe symbol.
If activated doesn't appear go to Citroen Services store.
To get there open My Citroen App.
On mobile phone now
Press car symbol, right of top line.
Connected Services box, touch find out more.
Nav services touch find out more.
NaV services touch find out more.
Real time traffic page appears
Scroll down page
Touch Service activation.
Read the info that appears
Note IF YOU HAVE THE RED SOS BUTTON goto 1), otherwise goto 2)
1) select the guide applicable to your car.
Print off for easy ref.
Follow the steps as shown.

2) Read the lower section, activation via Smart phone.

I followed the procedure I have red SOS BUTTON, and my screen now shows Tom Tom in bottom right of Nav screen. The message page says activated and available. I did have to allow the share data.
Hope this helps

Update. When I start the car and out on the Nav screen irrespective of whether I put in a route the TomTom legend appears in the bottom right of screen, not always instantly but it appears. It gives the impression that it doesn't always interrogate the host.

Can I suggest that now might be a good time to establish if the V5c has the correct details?
