I will NOT be paying the best part of £200 when I have already paid for boxes I do not own. I should get the amount I've previously paid for 2 V+ boxes taken off that figure IMO.

When my contract is up in May they can offer me TiVo at a better price or I move to Sky for my tv and have a 1TB box that I own and can sell on when my contract expires.

Big fail IMO VM, £150 for XL customers and £100 for VIP's with no install would be far fairer and would see a bigger take up.

Disappointed with this shoddy offer from Virgin.

Thanks for registering to be in the running to get one of 1000 TiVo boxes, to enjoy on us for a year.

As much as we’d have loved you to win one, sadly you weren’t successful in securing a free TiVo box in our prize draw.

If you’d like to upgrade to our supercharged TV service, just sit tight. We're launching in April so we’ll be in touch in the coming weeks with an exclusive offer, just for our customers.

So what does that mean...

I'm gonna take this VM TiVO box offer, shine it up real nice, turn that sumbitch sideways, and stick it straight up VIRGIN MEDIA'S CANDY ASS!

Sorry couldnt resist :D

Why do you say that? A Sky 1TB HD nox is £249 and Tivo has way more functionality. I don't understand your logic.

Why should you get money off. With VM your stb is covered for replacements if it ever breaks down, whereas after a year with Sky they would charge you for the visit and the cost of the repair or new STB.

No the article just says a lower spec box will be available soon, but the 1TB TiVo is still our flagship device.

Just picked a copy up in the office.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Sky's 1TB is flying off the shelves at that price either...... Instead people are happy to take the free option.

Has anyone had the long awaited email from VM about TiVo today?
