I'd guess 199+40 and 3/month?

Yep I heard that.... also only open to XL subs too. Or existing customers may be £149 activation + £40 installation + £3pm

Well i'm an XL customer but two hundred quids a bit steep when I already paid quite a bit for the V+..

I think if I was to shell out 2 hundred quid it would more likely be for an Ipad on the recently announced subsidised package as good as this box looks...

Some one I know is on staff account 20 meg bb phone and v+ box for About £10 a month even tho thy have not worked for them for 7 years lol wonder how much staff discount will be

The most irritating promo video I have seen in a long time.

Maybe you won't be charged if you paid for V+?

I loved my tivo.

The season pass was infinitely better than sky's, like someone said, it actually worked

I've still got it somewhere, i may stick it in BST

V+ charge is for install, you are not buying the kit, it's rented so unlikely.

Yep, I've had the box for 18 Months but renewed the contract when I moved in August, I can see a lot of faults*cough* developing on this one!

"Later this year"? It's December 1st today, they haven't got long to meet THAT deadline!

Yeah the V+ boxes are not the most reliable. However I'll bet they will still keep the V+ as well so they collect the 200 + the fifty odd quid activation also forcing you to go XL if you're not already. Of course my contracts just started so I'm at a real disadvantage. :-(

It all depends on the financial incentive they have to supply the TiVo over the V+. I actually do have some issues with my Sammy V+, the SC has better build quality but is getting a bit long in the teeth!

OK just registered interest and was told for existing customers the charge will be £149 for the box +£40 install so £189.. watched the demo (what a fit bird!!) and was told it will actually be early 2011 when the rollout starts.
I understand you have to be on the XL TV package to have the Tivo..

nice......

That sounds okay - also signed up for more info. We're on the XL tv package so if there's no additional monthly payment - bonus.
