Not sour grapes but a series of unfortunate events lol...Let me explain.

Ok I signed upto VM after being offered 6 months half price. So I choose VIP50, Which is "around" £100a month so at half price I think it will be "around" £50 a month. Its not its "around" £70.

When I signed up I mention my main reason to join is Tivo I'm told go with vip50 and its a simple swap out for the tivo box on release. No mention of the £189 +£40 install + £3 extra subs.

Now I understand new products carry a price but if I knew that Tivo was going to cost that much I wouldnt of joined VM. Again if I knew VIP50 was not going to be half price I wouldnt of chose it.

The loss of HD channels was a pain but mehh I could cope. Virginmedias service has been faultless in the 2 months I had it and the 50meg BB is excellent. But its over kill for me.

I thought I was joining at £50 a month with a view to getting tivo. What happended was I joined at £76 a month with another £180 for tivo plus £40 to get it installed plus another £3 to use it lol. So just a massive missunderstanding which is now resolved. I may keep the bb though just at a lower speed.
