V HD : Upgrade or not !

[mike @ home]

Hi guys, at the mo I have the "V Box HD" what I'd like to know is what will it cost to upgrade to the 500GB TiVo Box.

btw, My pack is 10mb Broadband,
Free weekend calls home phone,
and I'm sure just the basic tv programs.

And one last question is: on the V box front I can see a "Blue Heart" what if any thing does that stand for

Thanks.

Don't know about your other question but TiVo is £5 a month more than whatever you are paying now, plus £49 one off for the 500GB box.

The heart shows your box has a return path connection so you can access on demand

Mike, check out the 'Collections' (http://store.virginmedia.com/bundles...llections.html) as you get TiVo included. You'd also get faster BB (min 30Mb) whichever Collection you choose and I'm guessing that the Classic or Essential Collections would be a similar price to what you are currently paying?

Hope this helps.

Hi Superblade, have had a look and the price starts from £25 a month BUT also says at the bottom of page " When you have a Virgin Phone line for £13.90 a month." now is that £25 a month all in or do I pay £13.90 on top of the £25

At the mo we are paying about £35 a month with phone calls !

Hi Mike,

It'll be £38.90 (£25 + £13.90 line rental). So you'll be paying an extra few quid but will get TiVo and faster BB for it. So I guess it's whether it is worth it for you.
