Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Awesome news about the free install!

I joined the pre-reg list but never received the "dear dean" email

When I joined the pre-reg list I wasnt a Virgin Media customer, but I am now. Will I be able to get a Tivo box for £149.99 plus a free install in April?

Thanks

The whole tone of this thread has changed hugely since that annoucement earlier. Lets keep things happy people, it's a much nicer environment :)

Blows Sky's attempt at offering customers their 1TB box for £150 ;)

Yes you are correct Virgin and TIVO are working hard and keeping Sky on their toes , its interesting on Sky the last couple of days The Remind me Green button has been on more than ever for series , movies , sport etc Coincidence or not ?

That was a very wise move indeed I think. It seems a lot of people on here would have not bothered with Tivo because of the install charge. I already have the box, but I wouldn't have paid the extra. Good move from VM.

Lets hope this helps push Tivo out there to more of the masses.

I am also interested in the smaller box as I would like to replace our V+ in the bedroom as it keeps filling up with all the HD recordings I do on it!

You should be able to, although I am sure I will be corrected if I am talking nonsense!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Any word on whether we would lose our retention deals by signing up? Came up against that when I enquired about the 'free' upgrade to VIP30 from VIP20.

Is there a way I can be added to the mailing list at this stage? It seems to be an oversight that i'm not on there already as I did register. I emailed Virgin from the website helpform and they didnt know what I was talking about. Would seem unfair to miss out as I registered

Thanks

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

An instructional DVD would be a great idea with every install MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR TIVO SERVICE with Dean LOL

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

DF, do you know if we will be able to order more than one Tivo from the email link? I'd like to replace both my V+ boxes.

That makes a massive difference to me too.

I hope the priority will be on getting installation free boxes to as many of us customers as possible in April?

Am not usually fussy on price merely careful, but unwilling to be happy about a fee AND an installation charge.

I think you'd be directed to sales for that, rather than online.
