Virgin Media broadband deals: prices, speeds and price rises

Virgin Media broadband suits people who want fast speeds over its own cable and fibre network.

Its four packages advertise speeds from 132Mb to 2000Mb. They use cable or full fibre. Full fibre means a fibre cable runs all the way into your home. Its broadband also comes without a landline, so it suits homes that only need internet.

If you get Universal Credit or Pension Credit, look at its social tariff first. This is a cheaper plan for people on qualifying benefits, and the provider runs a DWP check to confirm you qualify.

Want TV too? Our second table shows its bundles, including Sport and Cinema options. Its deals are open to new customers in its network areas, so compare with rivals before you decide. Explore the cheapest broadband options to see the wider market.

Virgin Media broadband runs over its own cable and full fibre network. Advertised speeds in our table run from 132Mb to 2000Mb.

Full fibre means a fibre cable runs all the way into your home. Our table lists four Virgin Media packages, so you can compare them side by side.

Most rivals, including BT and Sky, sell broadband over the Openreach network. Virgin Media runs its own, so it is worth comparing with Sky broadband and other providers.

Availability depends on your address. Deals are open to new customers in Virgin Media network areas, and each price is confirmed by postcode. Check your postcode on Virgin Media's site first.

Your speed depends on your address, your router and your Wi-Fi. Sort the table by speed to find the package that fits how your household uses the internet.

Virgin Media broadband has a 24-month contract, no setup fee and no stated price rise in pounds. Installation is free, so there's nothing extra to pay to get connected.

Its broadband also includes Netflix Standard with Ads, Access to Priority from O2 and a WiFi guarantee. Virgin Media also offers a social tariff for people on qualifying benefits.

Don't judge a deal by its monthly price alone. Our tables rank every deal by real cost. That means each monthly payment, any stated rise and any setup fee, minus any reward card, averaged over the contract.
