Mobile Broadband from just £5 per month

Mobile Broadband from just £5 per month

Hot on the heels of having recently announced its first ever mobile broadband offering, from Monday 3 November, broadband expert Virgin Media launches the UK's cheapest ever bundled mobile broadband package.

From as little as £5 per month, new and existing Virgin Media broadband customers on cable or ADSL services can stay connected to the internet on the go by simply plugging Virgin Media's new 1GB USB modem into a laptop. 

    * Monthly cost is £5 per month for customers on Virgin Media's XL (20Mb) or L (10Mb) cable broadband packages, or Virgin Media's ADSL 'Bundle 1' (Up to 8Mb Unlimited Broadband and Talk Anytime)
    * Monthly cost is £10 per month for customers on Virgin Media's M (2Mb) cable broadband package or Virgin Media's ADSL 'Bundle 2' (Up to 8Mb Unlimited Broadband and Talk Evenings and Weekends) or the basic ADSL up to 8Mb Unlimited Broadband service
    * The Virgin Media 1GB USB modem has a one-off cost of £25
    * Included data allowance per month is 1GB
    * Monthly usage over the 1GB allowance is charged at 1.46 pence per MB

These bundled packages from Virgin Media are available on a 12 month contract and include enough monthly mobile data allowance for over 10,000 plain text emails or around 700 emails, plus 33 hours of web surfing, 66 music tracks and 33 two minute videos.

Graeme Oxby, Virgin Media's Managing Director for Mobile said: "Our 1GB mobile broadband is great for people who need home broadband but also want access to the internet on the move. The bundle is exceptional value and offers complete peace of mind, not only because it comes from genuine broadband experts but also because it offers the safety net of considerably cheaper rates if customers go over the monthly data allowance."

Mobile Broadband is available on 0800 052 3344 at virginmedia.com/shrunk or in any Virgin Media or zavvi store. An online data calculator is also available at virginmobile.com.
