Would those 300 texts be free to overseas countries too?

No, UK only, in common with other mobile networks.

Shame, as i have 1000 free texts a month on 02 pay & go and can only send overseas texts for as little as 10pence each.

Say I took out a Virgin Mobile Contract for £25 - Same tarrif as the NTL:Virgin deal. Could I ring up the next day after I got the contract saying 'I bought this contract and could I get the NTL deal with it?' Would that work? :)

Look at this :

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for your email to Virgin Mobile about getting set up with the £10 a month SIM card offer.

To get set up you'll need to make sure you're set up with ntl.Telewest for your TV, phone and broadband. Once you're sure this is all set up you'll need to contact our Sales team on 0845 6000 600 to get your £10 a month Virgin Mobile SIM card.

The offer is for a SIM card only, however you can combine this with a free Lobster 575 in either black or pink if you're using the ntl.Telewest triple play offer of 3 for £30 offer. If not you can still buy the Lobster 575 at a reduced rate of £29.99.

We hope this helps. If there's anything else we can help you with, just reply to this email.

How did we do? If you'd like to give us some feedback, just click on the link below and fill in our online questionnaire. You might like to have your original email handy to read while you're doing it. We promise to use your answers to make our service the best it can be.

Click here to complete the survey.

Kind regards,

Victoria Cooper
Virgin Mobile

Get a free Lobster 575! :)

but can we get 2 deals per household or is it just the one ?

Ok - here's the rub.
£10 is SIM only.
The only phone on offer is a Lobster which is dual band - and not much use to me when travelling to the US/Canada as I do.
Any other phone would cost the same as the PAYG charge - which means the potential savings are more than wiped out.

I dunno, but that's an email from a Virgin representative i think. We'll have to wait and see.

One slightly annoying thing is they are saying that the £10 offer is only available to NTL:Telewest customers and is half the usual £20 price. However, anybody can also currently get the same tariff for £15:

Plus, for the £15 per month you also get free ADSL broadband for a year!
