[QUOTE="RichardCoulter, post: 1101274, member: 387551"] Yes, you lose the triple play discount. Usually (but not always) it's also cheaper to take a landline with BB. You might be able to benefit from the free weekend calls to landlines & virgin mobile numbers. The trouble with the latter is that, with number porting, it's difficult to tell which are Virgin Mobile numbers! You can currently change the V6 to disable the eco setting: If you want to change when your Virgin TV V6 box goes into standby, you can do so. To change your default setting: [LIST=1] [*]Press [B]Home [/B]on your remote [*]Select [B]Help & Settings[/B] [*]Select [B]Settings[/B] [*]Select [B]Devices[/B] [*]Select [B]Power Saving Settings[/B] [/LIST] The power saving settings you can choose are: [LIST] [*][B]Always On[/B] - Your Virgin TV V6 box won't power down, no matter how long you haven't used it. If you want to turn it off, press the [B]On/Standby[/B] button on your remote [*][B]Connected Low Power[/B] - Your Virgin TV V6 box will power down if you don't use it for 4 hours - you'll still be able to watch your recordings in another room, use the Virgin TV app as normal, and Suggestions will still record [*][B]Eco Low Power[/B] – Your Virgin TV V6 box will completely power down if you don't use it for 4 hours - if you still want to watch your recordings in another room, use the Virgin TV app as normal, and Suggestions to record when your box is powered down, you can select Connected Low Power mode instead [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
