Virgin Media: fibre broadband, Volt bundles and TV packages compared

Shopping at Virgin Media? See all current Virgin Media discount codes and deals, checked regularly.

Virgin Media runs its own cable fibre network across much of the UK, so it doesn't rely on Openreach lines like most rival broadband providers. That matters if you want fast download speeds without paying for a full fibre upgrade, because Virgin's cheapest tier already averages 132Mbps and the top tier reaches 2Gbps. Since the merger with O2 the two brands are sold together too, and if you have both you get extra perks under the Volt name.

It suits households with several people streaming, gaming or working from home at once, and anyone who wants broadband and TV on one bill. If your street isn't on the Virgin network you won't be able to order, so the first step on every page is a postcode check. Most deals are on 24-month contracts, and each page shows both the price for the first two years and the price from month 25, which is worth reading before you sign.

What's worth a look

Here are six deals from Virgin Media's own pages, from entry-level broadband to a full sports bundle.

For most homes the M125 Fibre Broadband deal is plenty for streaming and video calls, at £23.99 a month for 24 months. If you're upgrading, Gig1 Fibre Broadband is the one to compare against: it averages 1136Mbps, includes Netflix Standard with Ads and WiFi Max, and costs £29.99 a month. The M500 tier also qualifies for the Netflix plan, at £27.99 a month. Sports fans should look at the Sport bundle, which pairs M500 broadband with Mega TV, Sky Sports HD and Netflix for £54.99 a month on the sports page.

Flex TV is the option for anyone wary of a long TV contract. You take 24-month broadband, but the TV side is a rolling 30-day service costing £5 a month on top of broadband, and you can switch subscriptions such as Netflix or Sky Cinema on and off each month.

Current offers

• Gig1 Fibre Broadband from £29.99 a month, with Netflix Standard with Ads included.
• M125 Fibre Broadband from £23.99 a month.
• Volt: M250 broadband with an O2 SIM from £28.99 a month, with a speed boost and double O2 data.
• Entertainment TV and broadband bundle with Netflix, from £32.99 a month (the TV page currently lists the Entertainment bundle from £34.99, so check your postcode for your price).
• Sport bundle with Sky Sports HD, Netflix and broadband, from £52.99 a month (shown at £54.99 on M500 on the sports page today).

How to save more

• Check whether Volt applies. If anyone in your home is on O2 Pay Monthly, Volt deals add a broadband speed boost up to 1Gbps, double O2 data and the WiFi guarantee at no extra cost.
• Compare the price from month 25, not only the headline. For example, Gig1 rises from £29.99 to £43.69 a month after the first two years, so put a reminder in your diary to renegotiate or switch.
• Don't pay for speed you won't use. M350 is currently cheaper per month than M250 broadband only, so look at the whole speed table rather than assuming the lowest tier is the cheapest.
