Box sets
A simple question, but one I was unable to answer when my son asked last evening
Are box sets free to watch on VM TV (access via Tivo)?
All the blurb just talks about "access" and "bingeing". We have what they now call "Full House" TV.

Re: Box sets
Yes. Box Sets are included in Full House TV.
All the content in Box Sets will show as 'subscribed' when you're on Full House TV. On lower TV packs, anything not included shows up as 'Upgrade to watch'.
The pay per access content is Virgin Movies, Live Events and Adult PPN content. All of these make it clear before you access it how much the cost is, and if you have purchase control switched on, will make you enter your TV PIN.

Re: Box sets
I'm not sure if this relates directly to Boxed Sets or not, but why when using All4 can I access more content from my iPhone than seems to be available on the V6 box ?

Yes, it is a separate 'catch-up only' version of All4 you get on VM, without the advertisements.
The full All4 service has much more content, but the unskippable cmmercial breaks will drive you mad. Unless you like adverts, that is!

Re: Box sets
OK thanks OB, as I thought. There's no FF button either so I have to be very, very patient and mute tham !

I tried to skip the unskippable ads once and ended up having to play them twice! Didn't watch them, though. Went out to get another bottle of wine!
