Thinking of getting rid of VM TV
Hello,
I currently have M+, vivid 150 broadband and evenings and weekend phone, for which I pay £62.05 per month. I am not on a contract.
I haven't used the TiVo box for some time and in fact it has been switched off for most of that time. I tried switching it on the other day and got a message saying I had to call vm to reconnect it. at this point I thought "do I need it?"
Can anyone give me an idea of how much I would pay if I got rid of the vm tv and kept the broadband and phone?
thanks in advance

VM's costing is a magical thing, lose one thing, pay more. The only way is to ask them I've found.

Re: Thinking of getting rid of VM TV
Not really what you were asking, but if you leave the TiVo switched on it'll probably reactivate itself in a few hours automatically.

Like wise.
I am on TV TiVo land line (which I pay annually) BB 100 MB/s, I wanted drop the TV and TiVo and keep BB 100 MB/s and landline but it would cost more.

The minimum TV service is free with the phone, it is for me anyway!

If you have a mobile with unlimited minutes, you can do what we did.
Cancel the TV, cancel the phone, we kept only BB (@50 - more than enough for a house with 2 people, neither of whom game or do anything like netflix).
cost 32.25
