I originally thought that they were only moving existing V+ boxes to another part of the house when a TiVo was ordered.

It does seem odd that they are supplying boxes that they want to eventually phase out.

Perhaps they have a huge stock of them!

I also have a feeling that all those took advantage of the offer to have their V+ relocated who, for the first time, experienced and became used to pay TV in the bedroom may be in for extra charges long term.

When the time comes for the V+ to be switched off, VM can legitimately say that it is a free service that is coming to an end, but that a (chargeable) extra TiVo can be made available at a cost.
