Er yes, they added both the TiVo fee and the HD fee into VIP 50 and kept the price the same

I just upgraded to vip50. With the v+ and additional v-hd plus my extra 2 v-hd boxes it now comes to Â£112 a month. is this a good price? the lady also advised that if i want the 1tb Tivo added it would only cost me Â£59.95 which i might get next month.

so you have four boxes?

If that is with 4 boxes then that sounds about right per month.

Thats a good price as I just upgraded to 4 sky+hd boxes 3x1tb and 1 500gb and I will be paying a total of Â£68 to sky with some Â£30 in discounts and then I pay Â£35 to vm for 50mb.

So I'm paying Â£105 with the discounts else it would be Â£135(the full price for my sky package is Â£90). But I guess all my boxes are PVR's and I get all HD on all boxes. Plus Skygo eventually on my ipad and a laptop or iphone.

EDIT!

Infact the guys deal is amazing, building it on the Virginmedia website is Â£133 plus you need 3 extra premium HD packs so thats another Â£21 his package should cost Â£154 a month. Even at full price the sky version has more HD more channels and is Â£20 less ad gives you 4 PVR'S

Yes its SKYWORLD on all boxes which includes every sky channels available.But as I posted in the Sky forum I get 50% loyalty on my skyworld which saves me Â£26 a month. With sky multiroom you now match EXACTLY whats on the main box HD included.

That's a cracking deal, as new customers would have to pay over Â£130 for that.

Well negotiated, that person.

It seems a cracking deal but the multiroomHD sub would add Â£30 and thats being dropped in 6 weeks so they really havent give me much there, The 12 months free hd and 50% skyworld was a "come back" offer after I left them in December.

So even a new customer would only pay Â£90 from September but you would still need broadband. Hence my hybrid VM and Sky package really does offer the best for not the cheapest, but a good price even after my discounts end.

thats a crackin deal youve negotiated as i think my other 3 boxes wont be hd activated. not really a big deal as i watch my hd on the big telly downstairs. the good thing about virgin's VIP of course is no upfront payments. so if you post on their forum you get a discount? thats a good incentive

I meant I made a post on the sky section of this forum lol. You dont get a discount for posting.

But your package would cost over Â£130.
