What to consider when comparing broadband deals?
When it comes to comparing broadband deals and finding the best option for you, consider the following:
Price of your broadband deal
You know what to check. Does your ideal broadband fit your monthly budget? Are there any upfront costs such as a setup fee? If you’re considering the more affordable options, does cheap broadband really meet your needs and offer the best value for money?
Internet speeds
Casual browsing and smaller households will generally need less internet speed. Larger households and more heavy internet users will need an internet deal with more speed (we do offer the UK’s fastest widely available broadband). Whatever your needs, we have broadband deals to suit you.
Broadband contract length
Just so you know, most of our broadband deals come on standard 18-month contracts, or 24-month contracts. Exempt from this is our Essential broadband for low-income families, student broadband packages with flexible rolling contracts, and a few other deals.
Broadband usage
If you’re a large household and frequently download music and films, you may need more data, than other households. The good news is that all our broadband deals come with unlimited downloads.
Broadband packages
It’s most likely that if you’re purchasing broadband you’ll also be interested in landline, TV and SIMs. It’s worth looking at our broadband, TV and phone deals as they bring the most value.

Whether you go for our QuickStart self-installation kit or opt for an engineer visit, you’ll need to be at home for your Virgin Media services to be setup.
- With our QuickStart self-install kit, the clue is in the name! This is a fast and easy way to get your home broadband setup, with no drilling or technical know-how needed. Plus, if your home is set up for QuickStart this saves you booking a £30 installation appointment.
- Only if QuickStart is unavailable to you will your installation appointment come at no extra cost. This involves sending an engineer round to get you up and running. You'll be able to choose the installation day and timeslot when you place your order so you can choose a time that’s suitable for you.
No, Virgin Media broadband doesn’t need a phone line (it uses more modern cables). That’s why we can do you a broadband only deal.
It’s worth considering bundling your broadband deal with additional services like landline and TV so you can get the most value from your package. This can also mean less hassle, with all your services being under one provider.
At Virgin Media, we have a range of broadband, TV and phone deals for you to choose from, including our supercharged bundles that come with exclusive Volt benefits.
