The fact that the advertised 24 hour 6am to 6am period was ended early, resulting in a boxing match etc being cut off is certainly a case for the Advertising Standards Authority.
It has been suggested over in the 'Coming Soon to Virgin Media' thread that the freeview was done manually (because of the infrequency of these freeview periods, it wouldn't be worth investing in automated equipment) and the person responsible wanted to go to bed

This much, at least, is true.

I don't think that the terms & conditions referred to are technically correct. AFAIK, the freeview recordings are not deleted afterwards, but are made inaccessible to you until you resubscribe.
Resubscribe could be another feeview period, so, if it's any good to you, you could watch your recording then (or, of course, if you ever paid to subscribe to the channels).
