You'd be best speaking to CS in the morning, also did you get the CS Guy's name as you can quote who you spoke to.

If you phone between 8am and 8pm you get connected to India, phone in the morning after 8am and you'll be connected to the UK.

Just sign up for the god damn Tivo vip package. You have 30 days to cancel.

Its not like your buying a frigging house, as you state you're already a Vip customer adding a Tivo(excluding activation) may cost perhaps an extra £20 a month? A fiver a week?

No but then I think sky is excellent, But I can see the appeal of Tivo and how its a really good addition to VM.

Infact even as a "sky lover" I feel annoyed that Sky are so petty as to stop sky channels appearing on Tivos epg. But then I also think VM should let Sky have access to the broadband network.

Why do you think Sky should have access to Virgins Fiber optic broadband network because as far as l am concerned Virgin or the name they were under before which was NTL/TELEWEST built their own network with their own money while Sky has piggybacked BT broadband network.

I think he was referring to the fact that Sky Channels are not allowed to be shown in the mini-tv window at the top right of the menus.

If he did mean the EPG, then all that is missing is Atlantic and SSHD3&4.

Not sure as I don't have Tivo but I think its only when in full screen EPG with the mini tv

I doubt it effects enjoyment of any flims/TV shows you enjoy.

This is due to change due to a deal in the deal that has been done? They will be shown in the mini window.

Hahahahahaha. Your comparing not having Sky channels in a miniguide to handing over the keys to Virgin media's prized asset. VM got the channels when Sky were sold VMtv so Sky have no leverage over Virgin for at least 10 years. Letting Sky at Virgin's broadband network would be like Steve Jobs giving the iPhone and iPad brands to Microsoft then shooting himself in the head.
