.... cheers.

Fixerman, I know. But if you take vm bb on its own, it's more expensive than taking it in a bundle. So the question for me is, who do I have the bundle with?

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

I have Sky Fibre upto 38mb and it's been excellent , it really depends what you do on the Internet and how many use it in your house. If faster speeds are available at your address Sky Fibre Max offers upto 76mb for £15.

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

I would need at least enough speed for a couple of Netflix/Amazon streams on at least 2 tvs and internet/web browsing on 2 or 3 devices in the evening.

Nervous about if I can do that lot on a 38mb service.... and I'm looking to go HDR next year too once all the standards have been finalised.

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

To be fair Netflix in HD tops out at less than 6mb , I've used Netflix UHD with someone else in the house streaming Netflix on an ipad and someone browsing without any issues hence my reluctance to pay anymore.

...thanks, good to know.

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Reading on the Sky community forum most of the problems with Q connectivity comes from people with other BB providers ,BT and Virgin hubs being the most mentioned

Apparently, it's in the terms & conditions :(

The correct sequence and timescale of events has already been fully explained to you.

Life isn't always as simple as you believe it to be.

Yup, that's my problem too, you've hit the nail on the head.

What happens if the new TiVo comes out after the window to cancel because of the price rise has expired??

What if it's too expensive or also suffers from performance issues??

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Don't worry too much Richard, at the rate VM are going there's a price rise every 4 to 6 months anyway so plenty of opportunities to leave your contract early if you wish

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Aye, that's true 😂😂😂

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Every cloud has a silver lining. :) Hopefully this will be the last price rise for a year except Sky premiums.

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

The office of the CEO have now acknowledged that there is a "widespread problem" with the TiVo.

It is felt likely that the new TiVo will come out after the window to cancel has expired.

This can only strengthen any case that customers bring regarding the product not being fit for purpose.

I may ask Trading Standards for their view upon a product that broadly works, but not as well as reasonably expected.

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Good grief if you are unhappy with the service VM is providing you can always leave and use another provider using the price rise as your reason instead or pointlessly banging on about bailiffs and not fit for purpose tivos ,get over yourself and ditch them or don't ditch them :rolleyes:

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

In the words of the former PM "for heavens sake just go"

Use the contract to get out, don't look back if you want to stay then accept it for what it is, you don't "have to have it" but same time the contract break is not an excuse to hold on to see if new one comes out these are two separate situation price rise and TiVo performance

Re: Breaking your contract with VM.
 

Where did you get the information that the CEO had acknowledged that there is a major problem with the TV service?
