Tips for scoring the best broadband deals this Black Friday

Black Friday usually falls on the day after Thanksgiving. In 2025, that’ll be on Friday, 28th November, followed by Cyber Monday on the 1st December for another day jam-packed with exclusive offers.

We often release our broadband deals just before Black Friday itself, and it wouldn’t be unusual for the event to continue over the weekend into Cyber Monday.

Our Black Friday broadband deals are live for a limited time this November, so go and grab big savings on broadband, TV and more while you can!

We don’t want to spoil the surprise, but savings on our Black Friday deals can typically go up to £150 or even £200 on selected broadband, TV and phone bundles. 

But you'll have to wait until November when we announce our deals. When the time comes, be sure to check out our special offers on our Black Friday Deals page to see how much you could save. Just don’t take too long to bag a bargain, or you could miss out!

Here are some great tips on how to make sure you get the right Black Friday deal and save a fortune:

1. Research broadband packages ahead of time

Familiarise yourself with our broadband speeds and any extras you're hoping to see in the sale, such as our TV and broadband packages, and phone plans. Also, talk to the people you live with who can help you pin down what to look for: fast speeds for gaming, streaming, or video calls if working from home, for example.

Take notes on everything, from what activities they do online to what they feel like watching, so you’ll know exactly what to look for

2. Make a shopping list

Once you’ve done your research, note down your must-haves and set a realistic budget. Without a shopping list, it's easy to get distracted and buy something you don't reedit will also make it easier to compare deals and spot real savings. 

3. Bookmark our Black Friday page for the big day

Why not save our Black Friday Broadband deals page and set a reminder to come back in November, so you can jump on the deals on time. The offers will show you the before and after prices to help you compare deals and see how much you can save.

That really depends on what you’re looking for!  

• M125 broadband: great for smaller households who browse, shop or scroll on social media. Average download speed: up to 132Mbps. 

• M350 or M500 broadband: ideal for larger families, home workers, gamers and streamers. 

• Gigabit broadband: Up to 1,130 Mbps is our fastest broadband perfect for smart homes, busier households with multiple devices and is great for 8K streaming and cloud gaming. 

In the meantime, have a look at our broadband speed options, ranging from 132 Mbps to 1,130 Mbps with our gigabit broadband.

That’ll depend on where you live. Our broadband services are available in a wide range of locations across the country, and we're continuously improving our coverage in the UK year by year.

Use our helpful broadband postcode checker to see if we’re in your area and what services you can get. It’ll quickly show you what Virgin Media services are available at your address, so you can see exactly what's available before the Black Friday deals go live.

It's quick and easy to switch to Virgin Media, no matter your provider. Thanks to One Touch Switching, there’s no need to tell your current provider or give them 30 days’ notice, and you can make the switch whenever you’d like.

If you’re with another internet provider and our Virgin Media Black Friday deals are on your mind, check if you’re still in contract with your current provider. If you are, there might be a charge if you end your current contract early.

Our Black Friday broadband deals will be waiting for in November! But before you decide which broadband package is the one for you, here are a couple of things to consider.

Here are some tips for buying broadband this Black Friday that’ll help you grab the best deal for you:

1. Think about your need for speed

Our broadband speeds are superfast, but how do you know which one is going to be right for your household? If you like to stream TV and films in 4K Ultra HD,  you’ll also need a faster speed. Speeds like M350 and above are great for downloading large files, video calls, and gaming online – especially if you’re streaming your gameplay! 

2. Know your options

Before you jump into one of our Black Friday deals, take a moment to browse all of our broadband packages and deals. Whether you’re a casual browser, a streaming enthusiast, or an online gamer, there’ll be a broadband package that suits your needs.

3. Think about bundle deals

Want to save even more? Our Broadband and TV deals can be a great way to save money, but you have to be smart about it. Before jumping in, think about what you’re actually looking for:

• Superfast speeds? 

• Extra sports or premium entertainment channels? 

• A complete broadband and TV package? 

4. Shop early

If you’re aiming to score the best deals, it’s wise to shop early. Black Friday can lead to some amazing offers, but popular packages can sell out quickly. Start checking out options a bit ahead of time so you know what’s available and can act fast when the deals drop. Having a game plan means you won’t be left scrambling at the last minute!

5. Be ready to switch

Loyalty doesn’t always pay off. If one of our broadband deals fits your needs, don’t hesitate to switch providers! Just make sure to check if there are any exit fees for breaking your current contract.

You don’t have to wait for Black Friday to save. 

We’ve got great broadband and TV deals available all year-round. 

While you wait for our Black Friday deals, check out all of our broadband deals to see if there's a package that suits your needs at a good price.
