Re: Is the TiVo charge now £3 per month on all TV packs?

But then Virgin make back the waiving of the install fee over the 18 month contract because that new customer has gone from paying £0 a month to (in your example)£23.40

So Virgin gain £371.25 in extra rental over the contract period by waiving the £49.95 installation fee. So part of that then covers the cost of the TiVo box
