However, I had a call from Virgin today offering to give me (and install) a Vbox for free and also upgrade my Broadand speed at the same time. When questioned the guy insists it's totally free. The only catch I could see was that I will then be committed to staying with Virgin for a further year.
I can't help but think that there must be some other sort of catch I am missing. I can't see why Virgin would go out of their way to give me something for free. I said OK, but unfortunately, apart from the phone call, all I have is a generic email thanking me for wanting to upgrade - nothing in writing about the upgrade details or any contact number.
Has anyone else come across this offer?
What exactly is a Vbox? Is this just a normal non-pvr Virgin box? I was told it offers more channnels that Freesat. Does it offer on-demand TV/Movies or HD?
Any info much appreciated.

It's free... no catch except your new 12 month contract. You will get access to Catch Up TV VOD, and pay per view Movies and M tv pack. There is no HD on the standard V-Box, only V-HD and V+
