Well spotted! Somebody else agrees with your observation.

Apparently Fifa 12 will have optional commentary as downloadable content. When your wife or girlfriend wants a go, Andy Gray tells them to put the controller down, get in the kitchen and cook dinner..

Hello..

Wondering, how long it will take for all the V+ customers to get set up... I have telephone, broadband but only the very basic TV package as I currently have sky...

I was about to upgrade to HD with sky when I heard Tivo was coming to Virgin.. Starting to wish I hadn't heard about it because I think the wait is going to bug me...

Also does anyone know if I was to upgrade my TV with virgin now, would that...

1. Put me under contract with that box... Could I still upgrade when Tivo is available?..also would it..

2. Move me up the priority list?...

I tried calling Virgin, but I've forgot my password and didn't have it to hand. I said I was just wanted information and it wasn't actually related to my account, but she insisted I needed to have the password. I didn't expect this service from their sales department...

Thanks

It's not as bad as having 2 tuners on the V+ though, TiVo will go and find repeats of stuff that clashes and record that instead (AFAK), well that's what I keep telling myself!!

1. not for the box, no. you would be contracted for the tv service, so upgrading is not a problem in contract.

2. VM XL TV customers are the first to get TiVo, so yes.

DPA has to be taken seriously, you could have been anyone trying to upgrade your account.

They could have done DPA with your date of birth, method of payment and what bank, so no idea why they were like that with you.
