Description of the package


This package concerns people who live in a non-cable area. One very special thing about Virgin is that none of the connections proposed by the Internet Service Provider have a limited usage. In a nutshell, cable and non-cable broadband bundles allow you to download as many files as you want, without having to worry about a potential extra fee (Be careful, however, there is a fair use policy). The speed is up to 1 meg which is not exactly what we can call a "fast lane", but this package has all the qualities of basic and robust Broadband.


DSL or cable ?

The eligibility of your phone line will determine whether this package is available for you through adsl. If not, you might still be able to join Virgin Media with one of its cable (Size M, L or XL) packages. They are provided through fiber optic cables, which means that you avoid paying for a phone bill. However, you'll have to pay a £25.00 connection charge.


Unlimited Broadband (Plan Three) is quite a good deal. It is cheap, and the modem is free, which makes you avoid paying an extra cost. If you use your telephone a lot, and if you want to save even more money, you can choose the special bundle "Unlimited Broadband and Talk (Bundle Three)" which includes the same Broadband package but adds free evening and week-end calls (Some other Virgin Phone packages are available) to a basic Broadband package.
