Do you think it's somebody being mischievous?
I noticed that the poster tripped himself up with something later in the thread... I won't post it, but it makes me think he could be telling porky pies

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I had suspicions when he quoted the ring back to get it ordered because of commission. I think that sounds more like Sky than VM.I can't recall anyone ever mentioning commission in the many years I've been on cable.
Maybe it would apply to the shops but that is for a different reason.

I think this could be that the poster has stated he had an email notifying him of 11th April offer where it was said the activation fee would be waivered for April.

If it's the same email we all got this was not stated anywhere.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I like this small review of the TIVO box but they have got the modem speed wrong.

Hmmm, do sales advisors get paid commission?

Yes they do as they get a bit extra for each item they sell ( that is why all sales advisors always try to get you to buy more ) P.S in any sales jobs.

Are you trying to say The Mirror got facts wrong? I'm sorry I can't believe that!

It is very hard to be funny when you have Self-deprecation

P.S Also to any MODS looking at this will you be able to delete my profile from this site as I am fed up of getting the **** taken out of me from muppets on here when all I am trying to do is help

From the start it is 10mb but I believe it was stated that it can be updated via firmware to 20mb no doubt a VM staff will know .
