Otherwise there were additional costs involved above your TV subscription

The old app may not have streamed live TV, and it may have cost people more money if they exceeded a certain limit, but at least people had the option to use 3G.

You are doing a grand job in answering various peoples questions and gripes, but this still does not explain why VM did not add the option for 3G on this app. I do not know if you have the answer or not, but it is a seriously bad oversight from VM. If it could be used before, why not now?

I only use the app to record programs and as such the lack of 3G does not bother me, but it has clearly upset some people.
