Call the thinking of leaving option again. You might be able to negotiate a different package with them again or at least give best advice on activating the new package.
Also at the least you should get a (free) technician visit to install the coax cabling and V6 to the site next to your TV. Be aware that the V6 "MUST" also be connected to the Hub - this is best done by Cat5e/6 ethernet cabling whenever practical (is your Hub near where you want the V6?) or wifi if the signal is strong there.
Oh and you can relax - you wont bump in to Game of Thrones after all as its on Sky Atlantic which VM doesnt carry.
