Did you ask for a price without TiVo but with TV M?

You would think it would be extra, wouldn't you, but I was surprised to find that it was cheaper!
I had XL TV XL BB and XL Phone and two Tivos.
I rang up to cancel TV completely and just have XL Phone and XL BB and to pay the line rental up font.
The price they quoted for XL Phone and XL BB was cheaper than the price advertised on the VM website for those services and I accepted that price. Then the CS agent said that if I kept one Tivo with M TV, they could reduce the price by a further £5 for six months and then by 50 pence for a further 12 months.
I guess that since I already had a Tivo installed, it wasn't costing them to leave it in my home and they were hoping I would see a show only available on a higher TV package and up my TV package to be able to watch it.
Also, I suppose it's possible that they want to keep as many TV subscribers for end of year sales figures.
