Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

I have phoned twice now, both times i have been told we will phone you back, and you guessed it they never phoned back. So going to sign up with the 3g one tomorrow instead.

Either they're getting really cheap capacity from T-Mobile (or whoever the real network operator behind their virtual network is), or it's a loss-leader.

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

Well I notice it's limited - 1GB compared to the other offers, and since it's only available to L and XL broadband users at £5 - I guess the reasoning is it will be used as top-up facilities not full download as it were.

A good price, and if my train company didn't offer free WiFi I would have gone for the offer!

Update

Tried again twice today and was passed from one person to another. The outcome is i have now ordered a new 3g data stick which will arrive tomorrow. 3 were more than happy to take my order and more important for them MY MONEY.

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

what a complete farce.... they c**ked up my order, lost my bank details then setting it up was just as bad, they told me i was on payg even tho i gave them dd details 3 separate times, they couldnt even get registering and getting adult access to sites authorised.. needless to say i have cancelled my contract, asked for a refund and now get my mobile bb from vodafone at 7.50 per month with free usb modem, it was registered and working right away, and i get 3gig per month.

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

virgin have got an offer on now that it's still £5 per month but giving you a free usb modem
can i get this offer as an exsisting VM vip lol!!! customer

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

Nope as you have to sign up for L or XL BB as part of the offer ;)

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

Before anyone complains, remember that you have to pay at least £15/£30 for the Broadband install.

It's no different than if you take out more than one cable service at the same time. You only pay one set up/install fee.

Take them about seperately and you pay for each install

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

oh well virgin lose out again then, as i had the choice between them and t-mobile but t-mobile will be cheaper as there giving a free modem and concidering there on the same network i will probably get the same service :)

Re: Virgin cuts MOBILE broadband to a fiver
 

The free modem with T-mobile is only avalaible if you sign up to a 24 month contract. Otherwise you have to pay for it.

And the monthly price for the 3Gb option is exactly the same at £15 a month
