Be patient there are probably a lot of people to call and they only started yesterday.

I got a ring at home whilst I was at work yesterday. They told wife they would ring back but nothing today. they have my mobile too.

Total anti climax as usual with VM.

If it makes you feel better, I signed up for my staff TiVo the day it was launched on our intranet and still haven't heard anything...

Well someone can have my place in the queue if the stories so far are true ...

I wont pay Â£149 (with or without the Â£40 activationto be added) if they insist on payment there and then by card over the phone. Had this battle with them before when trying to upgrade to 50mb bb when they insisted it had to be paid in advance by cc and i said no way was i giving anyone my card details over the phone.

I can live without if needs must ... after all its just TV not a life changing experience.

all IMHO of course so dont flame me

The V+ used to cost this much so it makes this box look a bargain.

Yes I agree seems value to me let's not forget Sky+HD was Â£299 when it launched and the Sky+HD 1TB box is still over 200 pounds now.

Can't the price be added to your bill over a few months.

Tough to expect people to find Â£200 just like that

That's what I'm hoping or the very least payment via you bill.

How does that work. I got my V+ boxes before there was a charge for them. I pay for them monthly (one included in my VIP and the other as an upgrade from the second V box so pay a bit extra per month). I saw later that customers paid a fee for the box, but never paid much attention. For those customers that 'bought' the box, is it still under service contract (ie they fix/replace etc) or is it like buying a Sky box?

Just wondering how it worked with the V+ so I know what to expect with the TiVo when the time comes.

No Vbox is bought as they at all times remain the property of Virginmedia which is why engineer visits are free for the whole term of your contract unlike SKY.
