Oh, not so cheap after all;

ISPreview quote "UPDATE 3rd July 2017

As reported last week, the 50Mbps package has now returned to Virgin Media’s website. The prices mentioned earlier (plus the usual £20 one-off setup fee) still appear to be correct for a 12 month term, although we note that the standalone option becomes £32.25 per month when you take a 30 day contract (this also increases the setup fee from £20 to £65).

Oddly the £29 per month broadband and phone bundle becomes £40 per month after the initial 12 month contract period (the 30 day contract alternative also charges £40 per month +£65 setup for the package), which is strange because that’s the exact same post-contract price as VM’s 100Mbps package."

Wonder if this is for new customers only. Limited time?
