I think that it is when it is done online they have set a date to get the orders processed and also to get the engineers booked and also advise the customers of the date? Just my thoughts.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Had my email this afternoon, Ordered Tivo decided to keep both of the other V+ boxes after being told it would be 3.50 less than what I am paying now. Install booked for 13th May but told to phone tomorrow for earlier date, but not to worried V+ will be fine until then anyway. Very impressed with VM only on phone for 5 minutes.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I got the email on Monday morning, rang after lunch and got an install date for yesterday, it took a while to get it all set up but now it's working well and is 5% full. Looking forward to having it start recording things it thinks I might like! But already it's so much easier to find stuff and get it to record, I'm glad I didn't wait for the 500GB as I think I'm going to need all the storage I can get.

As some people have mentioned I don't think the SD upscaling is quite as good as the V+ but the HD is if anything better, and that's what I'll be watching as often as possible.

The call centre experience was no problem at all, as always it's not where in the world they're placed but how well the operators are trained and individual personalities too.

Hope everyone who's waiting gets theirs soon, it's good fun and I'm looking forward to more improvements and especially the iPad app!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I can't help wondering how many emails are stuck in the Spam folder. If you think you are missing an email, log into webmail and check.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Received my offer Email today. How is the £149.95 activation fee paid? Is it paid upfront when I call them, taken on the day of install or is it put on the bill?
