What to consider when comparing broadband deals?
When it comes to comparing broadband deals and finding the best option for you, consider the following:
Price of your broadband deal
You know what to check. Does your ideal broadband fit your monthly budget? Are there any upfront costs such as a setup fee? If you’re considering the more affordable options, does cheap broadband really meet your needs and offer the best value for money?
Internet speeds
Casual browsing and smaller households will generally need less internet speed. Larger households and more heavy internet users will need an internet deal with more speed. Whatever your needs, we have broadband deals to suit you.
Broadband contract length
Just so you know, most of our broadband deals come on standard 18-month contracts, or 24-month contracts. Exempt from this is our Essential broadband for low-income families, student broadband packages with flexible rolling contracts, and a few other deals.
Broadband usage
If you’re a large household and frequently download music and films, you may need more data, than other households. The good news is that all our broadband deals come with unlimited downloads.
Broadband packages
If you fancy TV, take a look at our two-in-one broadband and TV deals that combine our superfast fibre with 200+ channels. Or if you prefer to pick and mix your entertainment each month, why not add our flexible TV service to one of our broadband only packages? Flex includes over 150 channels and gives you 10% bill credit back when you add entertainment subscriptions, like Netflix or Sky Cinema, to your package.

When you sign up to Virgin Media there are two possible ways you can get installed: QuickStart self-install kit & engineer visit. Regardless of install type you’ll need to be at home for your Virgin Media services to be setup.
If your home is set up for Quick start an engineer won't be needed and it is a fast and easy way to get your home broadband setup, with no drilling or technical know-how needed.
If QuickStart is unavailable we’ll send an engineer round at no extra cost to get you up and running. Additional charges apply for non-standard installation. You'll be able to choose the installation day and timeslot when you place your order so you can choose a time that’s suitable for you.
**If QuickStart is available to you but you choose instead to have an engineer installation , you’ll need to pay £30 for standard installation.
And just so you know, our broadband services also come with an activation fee of £35 (although discounts may apply from time to time).
Broadband deals that include home phone plans have line rental included in the price. If you choose a broadband only deal line rental won’t be charged and there’s no extra cost for our other broadband deals.

It’s quick and easy to switch broadband providers and move to Virgin Media. There’s no need to tell your current provider or give them 30 days’ notice, and you can switch at any time to one of our best broadband deals though if you do so before your minimum term is up, you might be charged early disconnection fees.
Simply choose your preferred bundle across all our broadband, tv and phone deals. Once chosen, you can start your broadband switch, firstly just check if you're eligible using our postcode checker. Then you’ll be asked to give us some details, including your current broadband provider, surname, address, account number and the services you want to switch. We’ll use these to find your account with your current provider. If we can’t do this, you’ll need to contact your current provider to check your details or disconnect from them yourself.
Your current provider will send you some important info, including details of any early disconnection fees, which you should read before you agree to switch broadband providers.
Using our switching service, your connection won’t be interrupted, and you won’t have to pay for two providers while we get things sorted.

This depends on the type of installation you need. Our QuickStart self-installation kit can arrive in just four days, while an engineer visit – where we might need to install cables – will take longer. It can also take up to 10 days to transfer your phone number across.
Once you decide to switch broadband providers, you’ll be offered the next available installation date when you place your order with us.
This'll depend on where you are in the process. You can place an order with us using our switching service, but you might need to get in touch with your current provider to make sure you won’t lose access to your services too early.
No, you can reschedule your installation worry-free – we'll take care of everything with your current provider and make sure you aren't left without services while you switch.
