If we were a new XL TV customer we'd get it for free.:mad:

Accordin to the website if you are on XL TV you only pay for the activation and the is no monthly charge, call tomorrow morning and speak to another agent unless Benmcr can shed any light on this.

Yeah, I may have to point this out to her. I think she's had her tablets changed once already.

Staying down with my mother in Cornwall as she's about to go in for a cataract op (tomorrow) so I took her over to St Ives for the day. Had the great pleasure of driving the B3306 on the rugged north coast from St Just and back, considered to be one of the most scenic routes in the UK. Even in winter the views were simply majestic. :)

and you are correct about the no monthly fee.The only fly in the ointment is that the activation/installation fee for an existing customer seems to be £69.99.

I pointed out that the VM website is rather misleading over this point.

Would be nice if others pointed out this fact too.Hint,hint.

Wow something worth watching on 3 channels at the same time, that is a happy thought...
