Virgin Media is offering complimentary smart TVs in a sudden sale ahead of the conclusion of the FIFA World Cup today. The company introduced a new promotion just before kick-off on June 11, allowing customers to receive a no-cost £250 LG Smart TV.
To take advantage of this offer, individuals can sign up for one of four Virgin TV and broadband packages, each featuring numerous channels, free Netflix, and the possibility of adding Sky Sports and Cinema coverage. The available packages are Virgin’s Cinema, Sports, Cinema + Sports, or Max Volt bundles.
Upon seizing this opportunity, customers can opt for a 43” LG Ultra HD smart TV valued at £249.99 or receive a £125 bill credit, which essentially covers several weeks of service. However, customers must claim the deal by 11.59 pm on Wednesday, May 27.
Virgin’s eligible TV packages provide over 200 channels and a complimentary Netflix subscription. The £44.99 Cinema bundle also includes full Sky Cinema access and 362Mbps fiber broadband. For sports enthusiasts, the £54.99 Sport bundle replaces Sky Cinema with complete Sky Sports coverage.
Customers can combine both packages with the £64.99 Sport + Cinema bundle, which also boosts broadband speed to 512Mbps. The ultimate option is the £76.99 Max Volt bundle, offering more than 230 TV channels, including Sky Cinema and Sky Sports, Netflix, 1,130Mbps broadband, and an unlimited O2 SIM.
Customers switching to one of Virgin’s Cinema, Sports, Cinema + Sports, or Max Volt TV bundles by May 27 will receive a free 43″ LG smart TV or £125 bill credit.
Virgin Media has introduced the One Touch Switch scheme for new customers, streamlining the switching process without requiring direct contact with their current provider. Instead, Virgin initiates the switch on the customer’s behalf.
It is important to note that Virgin’s monthly prices increase by £4 annually in April, a factor customers should consider before committing to one of the 24-month contracts. Sky is also launching a competing sale before the World Cup, offering reduced prices on their Glass smart TVs, starting as low as £4.50 per month.
In comparison, Sky Glass Air starts at £4.50 per month, while the more advanced Sky Glass Gen 2 begins at £11 per month. Additionally, Amazon has unveiled its revamped Fire TV range, including the new Ember Artline model, which is significantly discounted and designed to compete with Samsung’s The Frame TV.
Customers who have signed up for Virgin Media’s TV and broadband packages have left numerous positive reviews for the brand. Many customers have praised Virgin for its fast broadband speeds and excellent value.
Overall, Virgin Media customers have expressed satisfaction with their experience, praising the ease of use, number of channels, broadband speed, and affordability.
