Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I`ve just had a look at my online billing, it says there is a technical hitch but across the top it says
ou're getting close to your credit limit of GBP180.00. To avoid any restrictions on your services, please make a payment of £150.14 now.
Now this is obvious that this is the tivo installation fee but I thought that credit limits were going to be increased for this ?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

One thing l do like and l like many things about the tivo is being able to set recordings online for tivo.

Did your bill include the £40 installer fee as mine has and it should be credited back?

I had this stop problem until yesterday when suddenly it performed as you would expect. Pressing stop actually stopped the recording. I really think you have to give the TiVo at least a week to settle in.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Just checked my online bill. Seems ok. An extra £149.99 plus £4.45 (i assume thats a month and a bit tivo fee?)

Tried online recording, iphone dosent recongise i have a tivo. Online seems ok, says to "remember tivo needs to be on", i assume it just means powered, ok to be in standby?

There are no interactive services available on TiVo at present!

Thanks for that John , I had an email from Sky about it and thought I'd put the TIVO search to the test as I beleived it was a 21 day search

The wish list is a good feature meaning you'll not miss it anyway

For V+ users The Chicago Code starts on Thursday 12th May at 9pm on Sky1 HD.

Just wait until VM and TIVO have all the mobile apps available , you'll wonder how you ever managed without it.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

It's there for when it will work. You'd rather they miss it off now and give you a new remote with one on later?

Check out this thread over at the TiVommunity site:

http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb...d.php?t=468512

Reminders will appear soon, and Sky have allowed Virgin to show their channels whilst in the guide, as well as other stuff like the channel name being shown on the right of the screen whilst looking in the backwards guide.

Seems to be a lot going on at it is all for the good. Just a shame about the dates for the red button though?
