Re: PVR release dates

Testing is already in progress in Teeside & Glasgow, but its a staff test/trial to work out all the bugs.

Re: PVR release dates

I got the release dates of MEG (NTL Intranet).

Testers I'll get some more details, might need a few account details and I'll submit you guys. Can't do loads though, work will get suspicious.

Re: PVR release dates

Customers in Glasgow and Teesside areas can now order TVDrive. Just call Customer Care on 150 from an ntl phone or 0845 454 0000 (or Sales on 0800 183 1234)!

Sorry, but ntl customers outside the Glasgow and Teesside areas cannot currently order TVDrive. TVDrive should be coming to the remaining ex-ntl areas over the next few months.

What a surprise, London is left to rot yet again.

I guess that the PVR is next years 'Coming Soon' (oh, how I've missed that one since Interactive was released!) for those of us who live in the capital city.

I wonder if we'll get it before or after VOD (which incidentally, we're going to have by Summer 2006 according to NTL's highly accurate and bang up to date web site).

Well done NTL, you really know how to make us all feel wanted.

You're not the only one. I live a few miles (literally - I can walk it in 45 minutes) to the Bromley super head end, and we don't get it until next year..
