The dog ate my remote
 

Hes always taken a fancy too it. And unfortuntley, five mins alone with it has resulted in near destruction. He carefully aimed for the top end. Resulting in damage to all the 'important' buttons and the sensor. Are these costly to replace?

I actually wouldn't be at all bothered giving you my one since i switched to sky :D , If its free by all means do it but i don't mind sending you my new one >.<

You ring and do not mention the dog, just say no to every test using the remote but yes to any involving using the TIVO box buttons and they will send a new one.

Won't they have to post the old remote back?

Re: The dog ate my remote
 

No.

Re: The dog ate my remote
 

Will they have to send the dog then?;)

Re: The dog ate my remote
 

you can also buy them for about £5 off Ebay, so there not that expensive to replace anyway :)

Thanks for all replies. Esspecially Pillz offer. Will give the Virgin call a go. If it dosent work, i did check out ebay. Any VM Tivo remote will pair up with my box and work?

VM also welcome to the dog at the moment!!

Why pay when you can get one for free.;)

Re: The dog ate my remote
 

Just think you have a two in one remote now. Just press the dog and he can change channels for you. What more would you want :D:D:D:D

Brillant! Spot on! Although my dog carefully choose the 'useful' end!!

Re: The dog ate my remote
 

I stood on mine, I was completely honest- no tests done just sent a new one out for free. I changed to tivo a week later so now have two for the tele upstairs instead :)
Yes I still lose the remote!

I suppose the shape is a bit like a bone :)
