When will VM send me a jiffy bag to return my items?

[jonboy080269]

I left virgin media ealier this year - June to be precise and I am left with:

1 * Cable modem.
1 * standard set top box
1 * hd v+ set top box.

Customer services told me that I will be sent jiffy bags to return all, but so far nothing has materialised.

Ideally if they do not send me any thing I would like to rip the hard disc out of the v+ box and use this in my pc, but I am not wanting to do this if they want the v+ box back.

How long do I need to wait for vm to send me a jiffy bag?

That'll be one expensive 120gb hard drive if you do, I think it's around £200+ if you don't return the box (and even then, it still remains Virginmedia property).

When I had to send my old modem back, it took them almost 2 months to send anything and then it wasn't a 'jiffy bag', just a large plastic envelope with a prepaid sticker on.

I THINK, actually, there is a legal "Time Limit" whereby if you have
requested items be collected, and they do NOT collect, the items
(legally) become yours ?!?

This was discussed elsewhere. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35118412-post19.html
