Virgin Media rivals BT with a very tempting reason to switch broadband

If your monthly broadband bill is hurting your bank balance then now could be a good time to make some changes. Virgin Media has just unleashed a duo of deals that are offering the chance to bag half-price internet access for six months. That means prices start from as little as £21 per month for speeds of over 100Mbps per second.

That’s very cheap as most UK Internet Service Providers (ISPs) charge over £25 for basic 60Mbps downloads. Along with that £21 per month deal, Virgin is also offering faster 264Mbps downloads for just £24 per month.

At that rate, you’d be able to download a full HD movie in around three minutes which is over three times faster than the average UK speed.

Along with these half-price discounts, there is also a chunky discount on Virgin’s ultimate Gig 1 service which now costs just £45 per month – that’s around £20 cheaper than Virgin’s standard price.

Those signing up for this option will be able to whizz a full HD movie to their TVs in under 40 seconds!

If any of that sounds tempting here are full details.

These are clearly good discounts but it’s worth remembering that some BT customers can also get access to the web for half the usual price.

Right now there’s the option to grab BT’s Full Fibre 100, Full Fibre 500 and Full Fibre 900 and pay less for three months.

These discounts mean things start from as little as £17.99 per month and some of the offers even include 12 months of free access to Xbox Games Pass Ultimate.

Here are all the deals from BT.
