Improved out of bundle data charges coming
 
http://m.virginmedia.com/30p

We’re making some changes to our mobile web charges.

At the moment, if you’re using the mobile web outside your tariff allowance, you’ll pay 30p a day for unlimited use. Our unlimited mobile web access is subject to a fair use allowance of 25 Megabytes (MB) per day. If you go over that 25MB, you pay £2 per extra MB.

25MB as a rough guide is equivalent to browsing over 1000 mobile web pages, or about 50 game or ringtone downloads.

On 27th September our pricing is changing. From then on, if you use more than 25MB of mobile web in a day, you’ll only pay a one off charge of £1.69. That means you’ll never spend more than £1.99 a day browsing the mobile web.


This change only affects Pay by Direct Debit customers and Pay Monthly customers if your bill refers to your monthly package as 'Virgin' if you are a contract customer or 'V' if you are a Blackberry or Liberty Sim customer. If you've received an SMS from us about this change then the change is likely to affect you!

I notice from the http://m.virginmedia.com/30p link the date seems to have slipped to 15th November from the initially announced date of 27th September still showing in the http://www.virginmobilepeople.com/30p/ link. Shame, I was planning to take advantage of it this weekend. Anyone been caught out by the date change?

The date hasn't changed.

They are moving another set of customers over on the 15th November.

If you notice the last paragraph on the m.virginmedia.com site is different:

This change only affects Pay Monthly customers if your bill refers to your monthly package as 'PM_V ' if you are a contract customer. If you've received an SMS from us about this change then the change is likely to affect you!

oh good, so presumably as I received the text when initially announced in September it should already apply to me?
