Well the problem is my dad surprised me with the Lifetime service on my TiVo box. The problem with that is. It's for the box and not the customer. Meaning the service can't be transferred. I'll still look into it though.
That's usually correct but this is a special offer. Usually, lifetime service is non-transferable but in this case, you're essentially transferring it for a fee to the new box through their upgrade program. I'm not entirely sure if the old one is deactivated or not but I do know that a Series 2 box with lifetime service is eligible for this deal because I have one myself and got an email specifically stating that it was.
