Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

quote- Just in Kev, if you order before 1st November you'll be charged £3.00 per account rather than per box. After that, it's £3.00 per TiVo box. Hope this makes sense, Michael

Im on my phone, cant do link at mo.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Based on what is being discussed it would be a total of £9.50 per additional TiVo box (£6.50 additional box fee + £3 TiVo fee)

Maybe they want to get some extra revenue first before scrapping £3 per month for people on TV XL next year.

So, as per above, does it apply to everyone who currently have two boxes, or just those adding a second box after 31st October?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Yup. Anyone who already has multiple TiVos won't be affected, but as far as I understand it any new TiVo boxes ordered after 1st November will be for all customers

Thanks for the confirmation Ben.

Glad I got 2 boxes from the get-go. Now, just bring on multiroom streaming ASAP!

For all we know Maybe they want to get some extra revenue first before scrapping the £3 per month for tivo for people on TV XL next year. TV XL is currently £2.50 more than Sky's enterainment extra pack. That surely won't last long.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I find it very unusual for virgin media to change the Tivo £3 fee to per box in November. These things are usually done in April or October.
