Help with issues around returning old tv box
I was hoping a forum team member could help me, please. I'm getting nowhere with the live chat.
My elderly father has recently received a new 360 box, but is very anxious about returning the old box.
The old box is a CISCO CT8620 (I think a Tivo) box. It doesn't fit in the packaging that the new box came in. There were no instructions about how to return it. Someone on live chat told me it had to be returned and would send a 'kit' but nothing arrived.
My poor dad has had to buy a box that will fit the thing, but we've still got no information on what to do with it next.
If a member of the forum team could please DM me, I'd be really grateful. My dad is looking after my mother with Alzheimer's and I would like to at least remove one worry from his life!
Many thanks.
Hi Ekdp,
According to https://www.virginmedia.com/help/return-or-recycle-equipment the old tivo boxes don't need returning, however you can use the following online webform to request packaging
/virgin-media-return-or-recycle-equipment/request-returns-pack
You can also use the following link to print out your own returns label and use your own packaging.

After clicking Create a new label. you will be prompted for your email address. Once you receive the email you will be able to print out a returns label which includes a barcode. You can then parcel up your equipment and drop it off at the nearest Collect + store. Enclose a covering note with your account number and details of the returned equipment including serial numbers.
Make sure you receive a tracking receipt and keep it safe.
** Use either or both of the following links to find your nearest store (they have different shops listed)

You can also return your equipment via an O2 store if you have a local one. If you do take that route then make a note of your account number along with the serial numbers of any equipment you are returning and give that to the O2 staff, retaining a copy yourself and possibly get them to sign for it/and or take a photo.
