Re: V+ box when already on XL tv?

Can I just clarify the options if I'm currently on TV L?
Upgrade to XL and get V+ - £49 'service charge' & £11.50/month increase
Stay on L and get V+ (no VBox) - £99 charge & £5/month
Stay on L and get V+, keep V box - £49 charge & £5/m V+ & £5/m V box

Are those right, any other options?
Also is there any bundle price for Ph L, BB L, TV L (or XL) & V+?

Not to be pedantic but what does 'perdantic' mean?

No - Upgrade to XL tv for £11.50 more, Get V+ for £49 with £0 as long as you keep your existing STB for £5 a month

or £150 install if you don't keep the STB

Quote:

No - if you don't keep the STB you have to pay £150 and then £5 a month

Quote:

No - to get the £49 price you have to upgrade to XL tv - otherwise it is £99

Phone L, BB L, TV and V+ is £43.45 + £5 for existing STB

Phone L, BB L, TV XL and V+ is £49.45 + £5 for existing STB

Re: V+ box when already on XL tv?

When my VM V+ Box was installed 3 weeks ago I expected to have to keep the original VM Box, and pay £5 a month, but the Fitter said NO and that he must return it to HQ, he, of course, fitted the card, which I had for about 6 years, to the new one.

I'm not sure how you can say it with a straight face - it could just as easily say

£49 V+ offer is available to all - as long as existing customers have Richard Branson tattooed on their back

It's just a totally irrational prejudice against customers (since existing customers = allll customers), and it's in total conflict with VM claims to treat new/exisiting customers EQUALLY

It's totally indefensible position

Re: V+ box when already on XL tv?

I have xl tv and today I rang VM to enquire about getting my 1st V plus box. All I have to pay is a 49 pound installation fee and thats it. apparantly it will make my bills cheaper by 3 pounds a month. although this now means i have tied myself to a new 12 month contract.

Re: V+ box when already on XL tv?

Yup. The rules have now been changed. The first HD box on the account now costs the same whether you keep your existing STB or not

Re: V+ box when already on XL tv?

How much does it cost for a 2nd V+ to replace an additional V Box?
