TV packages
Watch Virgin TV 360 on your telly, online and on the go. Any TV package you choose, you can add even more live sports, kids shows and channels you love.
What is TV On Demand?
Ever streamed or downloaded a programme or film that wasn’t being shown on live TV? That’s watching TV using an On Demand service. You can pick what you want to watch and when you want to watch it. Here are the ways you can watch On Demand with us:
Free On Demand TV
Easily browse hundreds of series and films on our 360 box, with apps like BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4, My5 and many more. Plus, with the Virgin TV Go app, you can take all the best telly with you by downloading your favourite films and TV programmes onto your mobile, tablet or computer.
Paid On Demand TV
Pay to watch additional TV services through either your TV subscription or apps, like Amazon Prime. Buy or rent entertainment from the Virgin Media Store simply by signing into the app on the 360 box. If that wasn’t easy enough, existing Netflix customers can now add this to their Virgin Media bill.
How do I choose a TV package?
Survey, shopping list, spending cap – the three essentials you need to choose the right TV provider and package for you.
1. Assess your household’s viewing habits
Before deciding on a suitable TV package, it’s important to consider what everyone in your household likes to watch. Conducting mini-interviews can be useful if you want to understand everyone’s preferred features and channels.
Consider asking questions such as:
- What are your favourite shows, movies or live sports – and why?
- Do you watch any of those on Netflix, Amazon or YouTube?
- Do you like to watch the latest TV and movie releases as soon as they’re available?
- Do you prefer watching the TV or would you like to stream on your mobile or tablet?
- Do you want access to kids’ channels?
2. Find the most satisfying service you can
With your notes from earlier, create a shopping list of must-haves and nice-to-have features and services, for your TV package. TV boxes vary by provider, so be prepared for light research to find the right one.
For example, streaming. If you want to watch Netflix on your telly, you’ll need a box like the Virgin TV 360 box that comes with the app built in. You’ll also want to consider multi-room TV services and the option to include HD channels, both of which are available with Virgin Media.
3. Shop with a budget in mind
Have a clear upper limit – know the most you’re prepared to pay monthly, so you can sort the affordable TV packages from the unrealistic.
