My TV cable box with the Virgin extra V+ service can record programs. And normally it does it fine. But recently it has suddenly deleted a whole string of recordings at once, everything on it. When rebooted, it has "recovered content" files listed, but these files won't play. It has happened several times.
Not great, so I called Support. After much checking and waiting, I was told that "there's no fix for that". Apparently not even getting a new box would help. And there was no light on the horizon either. I would simply have to sit back and accept my recorded fave TV programs disappearing periodically. Or, I guess, get Sky TV instead. But I don't think they do broadband.
Wow, that has to be the worst ending of a Support call I've ever had! "There's no fix for that"... seriously?

Why not suggest that to Richard Branson as a new slogan for Virgin?
Could you link it to a backup device, or maybe replace it with something like Tivo?
