I expect that would disable all the TiVo side and probably the recording facility.

Just had a pop up on the tv appear saying about the offer. I registered my details on the website given and the thank you message said "Hi Phil"??? My name is not Phil...

I will have to remember that if anyone phones me, asking to speak to Phil, to say yes I am Phil... ;)

The TiVo may be able to run as a v+

If you flip the card over, under the terms and conditions it says: (b) If you do not wish to keep your TiVo service, certain functionality on your TiVo box will be disabled.:monkey:

You would have to continue to pay some sort of subscription as otherwise as with the V+ you would lose the recording capability.

So if you don't want to pay the £3 a month after the free TIVO for a year deal ends, you would have to have a V+ Box reinstalled to be able to record?
Hope there won't be a charge to do this.

I would say it would be simpler to keep the TiVo and pay the subscription, now no one can say the £3 is not worth it because they do not have a TiVo which is unlike any other PVR out there and you would probably think it is a bargain after 12 months if you were one of the lucky 1000.

from whats been posted previously ... once you have a tivo box you cant then have it replaced with an older V+ box .. so after a year (if your a raffle winner) and you wish to keep recording then you need to keep subscribed ...

of course that could all change over the 12 months ... problem is no one is sure yet exactly what is going to happen

this will ensure you get VM marketing emails.

Ok thanks. I was on about postal mail as that is how the lottery tickets for Tivo were being delivered it seems. I guess there is no way of opting out of Virgin contacting you by post then?
The email address is correct and still not got one via email either :(
