I think that they are still been sent out today and tomorrow?

No email for me either. Pre reg on the 1st and got an email saying thanks for registering my interest.

Got another on the 16th of Feb saying 'TV magic is only weeks away'

Then the last one I got was a 'Sorry your not one of the lucky ones' on the 18th March.

I'm an XL TV, XL BB & L Phone customer??

Am I the only one on VIP50 that hasn't received the email yet? I received all the other emails so was sure I would have been contacted by now. How long should I wait before I contact VM?

I got mine today as a Triple XL customer so they must be doing it by package so I would assume that you will be getting yours tomorrow

I got that recorded message also! It seems bizarre that a competitor is advertised on holding time on VM telephone system. Maybe some of the Staffers can report this to those who arrange such things.

Yes something about BT Talk talk continue to hold and then it goes garbles and keeps repeating itself.

Noticed this for last few weeks now when i rang them about something on my bill the other week, I would have thought this would have been rectified by now.

The call centre assumed (correctly) I'd want to keep the V+ and had arranged it that way before I even asked.

Got my email......

Phoned the 0800 number to arrange installation and got a nice suprise. I'm on XL BB, XL TV and XL Phone with Sky Movies and Movies HD with 2 V+ and 2 Vbox.

By the time they had finished, I'm now on a "new package" called "Tivo VIP 100" with movies, sports, premium hd etc for Â£149 and then Â£7 less a month than i was already paying.

No monthly Tivo charge and free install with an install of Monday PM.

I'm a great believer in if it seems too good to be true it prob is so afterwards i phoned up retentions just to check it was all correct and it is.

So looks like as well as 100mb being available in my area 2 months earlier than the pdf reckons, there are some new packages in the offing as well.

Phil (Soon to be happy Tivo user)

Forgot to mention, only pre-requisite it would seem, was i had to change over to direct debit.

They could be trying subliminal messaging to try and get you to change you mind, i think that is why some have said that they have been put on hold a lot of times

Begize · 12-04-2011, 19:31

Got my email today. I did pre-reg and enter the competition, but got a "Dean" email, followed by another last week saying I would get details this.

All done online, install ordered for Saturday 23rd April AM

Now all I've got to do is watch what's left on the V+ before then...

VirginMediaPhil · 12-04-2011, 19:55

Still haven't got mine.
