Hi

Since the merger with NTL/Telewest, Virgin Media seem to be concentrating on the broadband and TV aspect of the quadplay services, not that i'm complaining :D

Does anyone know if Virgin Mobile are doing any other special offers to Virgin Media customers (other than the £10 SIM with 300mins and 300txts).

Anyone with any info much appreciated
Thanks

there's 5 people in the house, 2 are already on the current £10 offer, which is the max uptake for 1 household.
The other 3 members are nearing the end of their contracts and like the sound of Virgin now, and so i was just wondering if they had any more deals going like their current one

instead of having 300 mins 300 texts, have more mins/ less texts or vice versa/ have a credit system! 900 credits [say], 1 min = 2 credits and 1 text = 1 credit.

In my house no one uses texts so it would be a waste! Some other households might text more!

There should be some sort of family plan. Each member of your household has their own phone but they all share the minutes and texts every month.

If you are desperate for that, T-mobile do that already (called Flext)

i think that would end up getting complicated between family members. having said that, is that provided by any network ?

Not in the UK but in America and Canada they have these packages. It would be really useful for me.

Yes, but IMO virgin should offer something similar... or maybe more mins/less texts bundle, coz we are thinking whether we should get £10pm 300 mins 300 texts virgin, or £15pm three network for 500 mins 100 texts i think it is...
only downside to virgin is those wasted texts...:rolleyes: could be better utilised as mins!

I was planning to get the £10 sim for 300 mins + 300 texts, but the present deal no good, so i will wait for a better deal in the future.
