Upgrading to Tivo in 12 month contract
 
Hi

I have been a VM customer for several years, having M TV, M phone and L Broadband. I have just recently upgraded my package to XL TV with additional V+HD boxes.

When Tivo is released, would I be able to upgrade to it whilst still in the 12 month contract for XL TV or would I have to wait until the 12 months are up?

Thanks.

In my experience you can upgrade at any time ,it just means taking a new contract for a set period

Thanks everyone for your responses.

One other question... will it be possible to just upgrade one of the V+HD boxes to Tivo and leave the other one in place?

No it will be full price just as it would be if replacing 2 standard vboxes with 2 V+ vboxes.

Upgrading to Tivo apparently resets your contract to a new 12 month period for ALL the services. 6 months into my 12 month contract and having Tivo fitted tomorrow. However at no point was I told that I would be signing up to a new 12 month contract, first I heard of is when the new contract dropped through my door today. 1 whole day before the install!!!!!

Is this correct?
