I'm currently on VIP20 and am giving this some serious thought, but was wondering what the best way to do it was. Should I do the upgrade to VIP50 now, and wait for Tivo; wait for the phone call and do it all at once; or wait for Tivo to be installed and do it later.
Are there any benefits to doing it the upgrade one way or another?
Cheers.

You may want to take a look at upgrading online. I looked last night and couldn't quite believe my eyes so I did it there and then.
Currently it says the follwoing under existing customers section under customer offers.
Select upgrade to faster broadband.
Then you will see
Upgrade to 50Mb broadband with free installation and activation
Boost your broadband speed to 50Mb, and we'll cover your installation and activation - worth £60.
You'd normally need to pay a £40 installation charge, and a £20 activation fee for Broadband XXL, but we'll cover both!
You'll get all this:
Up to 50Mb speed
Unlimited downloads1
Virgin Media Super Hub wireless router
and USB adaptor
Unlimited online backup & storage
100 free photo prints every month
So I filled in my details and booked in my date and time and that was it.
Need to make a call to make sure they bring another VHD box with them to replace the normal additional bix but as it's was completely free I thought I had nothing to lose apart from the extra couple of quid each month.
Also I get the Premium HD back for free so in total kind of turns out to be a saving over VIP20
