If you move the V+ to the bedroom yourself and swap it theres nothing else to do is there? It's just works, HD and all.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Installed!!

Nice guy came to install it, first one he had ever done. Start to finish for install and relocation (replacement) of V+ was about 50 minutes, not bad.

Now it's tinker time!!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Had my install about 10:30 yesterday after booking on Monday.

Greeted at the door with a handshake. He had only been on the training 2 weeks ago and only just fitted his the night before.
Showed him the original Tivo and peanut which he was suprised looked still so alike.
Then we got talking about Tivo's stuff and he didn't know about the better Iplayer but lack of proper red button, no box office channel, channel up and down to move change page on EPG.
These were not a fault in anyway as he was a nice chap and actually joked that he had my number so if he got questioned about anything on his future installs would give me a ring.
Before he left he called about swapping my Premium HD channels to the Tivo box from the V+ which was now upstairs replacing the original V box. He said should be done in a few mins but here is my number if it is not done.

Left it an hour or so and was still not on Tivo but was on V+.
Called Stuart the engineer back and he said leave it with me will call you back.
As he did maybe 30 mins later and said this time he had gone through to the Tivo team and they had sorted it. I checked while he was on the line and it was done.
I said thanks very much and he said enjoy your Tivo.

That sort of service is something you don't get a lot of today unfortunately. Three Thumbs Up!!!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I got the email Monday but was out of the country until late last night. Phoned up today and I have to say, top service from the lady on the phone. Without prompting, she told me they would take out the old V-box, leave the V+ and transfer the Sky HD channels to the Tivo box. She summarised the prices, the 12 month contract, everything.

The best bit after my whinging earlier this week about not being able to contact VM until the end of the week and what installation date I would get? It's coming Tuesday morning!! I guess Tivo hasn't hit the South Herts area in a big way
