I'll just put this here while the main forum is up; I've registered on the back-up forum but nobody has "activated" my account so I can't comment!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Will the waiving of the £3 fee for VIP50/100 also apply for the smaller box ?

Obviously I don't get the emails for this, but some are going to be able to order online.

Is that what you got? If so there may not be an order code?

This was placed on another forum from an email:

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Email re Tivo for info:

Virgin Media TV powered by TiVo is here.

But before the TiVo boxes officially go on sale, you'll remember we promised you an exclusive chance to get one. And here it is.

Virgin Media customers go to the front of the queue.

With enough storage space for around 500 hours of standard TV, or around 100 hours of HD TV, demand is expected to be high when our 1TB TiVo box officially goes on sale. So to ensure you're first in line, make sure you call us and buy yours now.

An exclusive price for Virgin Media customers and an extra special offer.

We don't take entertainment lightly. That's why we're offering our VIP customers, with our up to 50Mb or up to 100Mb broadband, the opportunity to upgrade to TiVo for no additional monthly fee. It's normally £3.

Order our 1TB TiVo box now and it'll only cost £149.95 to activate your box. That's an exclusive customer-only price (to everyone else, it 's £199.95). And, because you were one of the first to pre-register, we won't charge you an installation fee either. So that's an extra £40 you can keep in your pocket.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I received my email this morning and after spending nearly 40 minutes on the phone (mostly on hold listening to that mind-numbing music) fixed my TiVo installation for Thursday morning. As a VIP 50 customer I paid £149.95 - which will go on my monthly bill - with free installation and no monthly sub. I get to keep my SA V+ box for the bedroom and will surrender my bog-standard Samsung V box. Very happy. Roll on Thursday!
