[Smilie]

I saw this broadband offer
£29.00 for 1st 12months (20mb)

and in ths small print/legal stuff it says:

Broadband offer - Offer ends midnight 31.08.07. You must take broadband services for 12 months. £25 installation charge applies. This offer is available to new and existing Virgin Media broadband customers taking Broadband for the first time. If you wish to change any part of your package, Virgin Media's standard rates will apply.

I'm guessing that you already have broadband, so it would appear the answer is no. Although there's no harm in ringing up and trying.

Youve been on 20Mb for years?! Wierd...

This offer is available to new and existing Virgin Media broadband customers taking Broadband for the first time. I am a bit confused over this bit...if you are taking their broadband for the first time, how can you be an existing customer?

Should it have said "existing Virgin Media customers"?

Some customers only have telephone or television package.
That's what it means when it says taking broadband for the first time.

No it doesn't, they cocked it up. It clearly says "existing VM broadband customers". If you only have tv or phone they you are NOT a broadband customer.

You're quite right hokker999, I obviously misread it too.
