They did say they'd be in contact by the end of March.

I'm VIP and I got my ticket in the post last Friday.

That seems like 10 years away!

The posts from people saying they've had a call seems to be a lot less over the last few days. Are they making fewer calls and, if so, is it for a reason?

I stand corrected then

Yes I have read other VIP's in other threads dotted around here have had the email or the physical letter and I am one of those VIP's that have had nothing apart from the email to say we will be in touch end of March as I had pre-registered.

What the hell are they playing at as if lots here on the forums are missing out on this raffle, then who knows how many others have or have not been given the chance???

How many other VIPs have actually got an install date or had it installed? I am on VIP50 and had mine installed this morning.

I haven't really had a chance to play with it yet! I took the morning off for the installation and am now back at work so I'm itching to get back this evening for a play.

Although, that might be a good thing as the engineer said it can take hours for the box to fully update everything, the EPG etc, so it may run slowly to start with.

My first impressions though are pretty damn good!

Look forward to hearing your thoughts when you've had a play around.

well if they have said all pre registered customers will be contacted by the end of March. Does that not suggest that they plan on officially launching TiVo in April?

Agreed mate I think the wording suggests existing customers will be contacted through March myself.

Can someone answer me a question what is the TIVO price because I've seen XL customers on here saying they've got it for 149 and 3.00 a month but vmhd blog are saying XL customers 149 + 40 install .

BenJSmyth · 22-02-2011, 16:39

I paid Â£149 and no installation with the Â£3 extra per month. I'm on VIP50. They "plumbed in" our VHD box into another room at no extra charge so we now have Tivo downstairs, V+ in our main bedroom and VHD in one of the kids' room's. We do have to pay another Â£6.50 a month for the third box though. So VIP50 with Tivo, V+HD and VHD is as near as makes no difference, Â£110 a month.

Mobes · 22-02-2011, 17:03

Lots of info to trawl throuhg on here but I do have a question.

I appreciate i will have to pay (Â£149 is it?) for instillation. As i have a V+ box which costs me Â£10 a month (it's a second box) how much a month is it just to have the new Tivo Box?
