Tivo not restored after being cut off....
 
Hi all,

I was cut off today for not paying my bill (bank ballsed up, several times etc but thats by the by)
Reason I am posting is because my internet, phone and upstairs "normal" V+ box were all restored to full service within 2 hours, and all at the same time, yet my TIVO box has not been, and is still displaying the message "Account Closed" .

Any ideas? :S is this normal?

Happened to me once. I was on holiday spending recklessly and didn't have enough to cover the Direct Debit. When I got home everything was cut off. I called and payed by debit card. I seem to remember TiVo taking ages to come back on. I'm sure it was as much as 8 hours!

ok thanks, cheers Chad. Guess i'll just have to be patient then.... not a virtue i possess unfortunately!!

Why the hell does the most advanced piece of kit take the longest to come back on?! ah well.... :sleep:

Go to Help&Settings -> Settings -> Network, and tell it to connect to the Virgin Media Service
