Thanks for that. I wonder what they do if, like me, you already have a second box rented monthly for £15?

Re: Where Is HDTV From ntl.....when?
 

Here is your answer

Existing customers can avoid the £75 one-off hit by opting to retain their existing set top box and connect it to a second TV elsewhere in their house, taking out a ‘second box’ subscription of £5 a month.

You still pay the £10 a month for the TV Drive and the 2nd box becomes £5 a month.

Re: Where Is HDTV From ntl.....when?
 

Not quite. I already have two STBs at the moment. The TVDrive will replace the main STB and the old STB then becomes a second box or in my case a third box.

Does this mean I will have two extra STBs or will they simply remove the existing second STB and replace it with the old main STB?

If the former is the case I will have one extra STB at £15 per month and another extra STB at £5 per month.

If the latter is true, I will save £10 on my existing second STB which will offset the TVDrive cost and be charged £5 per month on the second STB so I'll be paying the same monthly charge.

Dioes that make sense?

I don't know how it will work with already having 2 STBs.

Re: [Merged] Where is HD from NTL? When?
 

Ah - good to see that the marketing department people haven't figured that situation into their planning then for customers who already have 2 STB's.

In theory though, wouldn't it be simple enough to be treated the same way as keeping the original box, only it would be the second box moving not the master perhaps, because we're going to be in the same boat as ntluser with 2 STBs in the house and no spare drops off the master network connection on the brown dropbox outside.:confused:

All the same, it is good to have confirmation of the pricing structure for the TV Drive at last - shame there's going to be a restriction of one per house on ex CWC side of the network initially.
