ISP Virgin Media Cuts Standalone UK Ultrafast Broadband Prices
The Cyber Monday discounts on Virgin Media‘s bundles may be coming to an end but the ISP has today launched a new range of discounts across their standalone ultrafast broadband (100Mbps+) packages, which sharply reduce their monthly prices for the first 12 months of service and add free setup (normally £35).
All new customers can expect to receive a Hub 3.0 wireless router (Hub 4.0 on 1Gig), a 12 month minimum contract term, unlimited usage, access to Virgin’s UK network of WiFi hotspots, internet security / parental controls and email.
Otherwise the new discounts should be available to order until 22nd December 2019. We also note that the provider has removed their 50Mbps broadband-only tier (M50) from public display (still available as a bundle with phone, TV etc.), although it wouldn’t be the first time they’ve hidden that only to add it back again later.

Uh I did?
I don’t like Virgin Media anymore finished now. I have Sky Q is better watched Sky Atlantic available service now
Same sky being installed in 2 weeks.
Slower internet but hopefully more reliable and like you sky Atlantic was a big draw.
VM wanted to give more faster speeds to stay. But speed of package was not the problem is was the speed being received and the ability to hold a connection.
U can get Sky Atlantic on NowTV with entertainment pass £15 for 2 months
@Ashley – so it was the speed then.. otherwise your sentences make no sense!
Mark Jackson – why is M100, M200 and M350 reduced upload speed from 10 to 6 for M100, from 20 to 12 for M200 and from 36 to 21 for M350?
Been asking virgin this question, one advisor say this is correct 6,12 and 21 uploads but other advisor say no this should be 10,20 and 36 uploads. Who tell the truth?
It’s a bit silly but so far the 10:1 download to upload speed boost has only been applied to existing customers, while their packages for new customers are still being sold with the older tiers.
I have just subscribed and my contract states that the I will get 35mbps upload on the M350 package
I will find out soon when it’s installed
@Alexander
You will – we all got it on 350 a week or so before 500 came out.
@Holly
Awesome.
