Dear Matthew,

We are sorry you was not selected for a free TiVO on us for a year. However we have some great news

What is it I wonder...

...You can now BUY one at £149 per box with £40 install and £3 per month....

Forget that - I'l stick with a V+

...We hope you will love the TiVO...

Hang on I havent agreed to have one yet

...And we hope you buy 2 boxes so we can rob more of your money...

Ok, ok they may not say it like that

...Thanks, The Virgin Media Team.


I hope VM's grammar is better than that

It means that you've not been using TiVo enough and have to give it to someone who needs it more. I'll PM my address so you can post the TiVo box to me....

Earlier on the thread people were saying it's likely the new standby mode that's come with the code drop - the red light for standby and the green light for online as with the V+ boxes.

Re: TiVo

The red light means the box is in standby.
The green light means the modem connection is active.
