Virgin Media plans to launch the "
UK's cheapest ever" bundled
Mobile Broadband package on Monday. Both new and existing customers will be able buy the mobile service from as little as £5 per month when taken with the operators XL (20Mbps), L (10Mbps) cable broadband or Virgin.net ADSL 'Bundle 1' (8Mbps) services.
The monthly cost increases to £10 per month for customers on
Virgin Medias M (2Mbps) cable broadband package, Virgin.net's ADSL 'Bundle 2' (8Mbps) or the basic ADSL service:
Graeme Oxby,
Virgin Medias Managing Director for Mobile said:
Our 1GB mobile broadband is great for people who need home broadband but also want access to the internet on the move. The bundle is exceptional value and offers complete peace of mind, not only because it comes from genuine broadband experts but also because it offers the safety net of considerably cheaper rates if customers go over the monthly data allowance.
The mobile broadband package comes with a 12 month contract and 1GB of monthly data allowance, with usage over the allowance being charged at 1.46 pence per MB. However customers will still need to stump up £25 for the USB Modem (Dongle).
