Just hours remain on Virgin Media's free 4K TV deal
Virgin Media has confirmed that its free 4K TV offer is coming to an end tonight - so be quick It's a rare occasion when you receive something free, but that's precisely what Virgin Media is currently offering. The telecoms behemoth has been gifting a free 4K TV over the past week to customers who opt for certain bundles. A 50-inch Hisense television is up for grabs, but Virgin has now confirmed this eye-catching giveaway will end tonight (July 9) at 11:59pm - so make sure shoppers act fast to claim the deal. If a free 4K TV tickles your fancy, it's straightforward to secure one. Virgin has confirmed that the television will be dispatched once you subscribe to plans such as the Bigger Combo bundle + Movies, Biggest Combo bundle, and Mega Volt bundle. Upon confirmation of the 24-month contract, the 50-inch TV - valued at over £240 - will be delivered right to your door. If a new telly isn't on the wishlist, shoppers can choose to have a £200 bill credit applied to their account instead. Here is a rundown of all the deals and what they include: Bigger Combo bundle + Movies Bigger Combo bundle + Sports Ideal for connected homes with four to six people and 10+ devices TV from everywhere, at home and on the go Biggest Combo bundle Great for super-connected homes with six to eight people and 10+ devices My Watchlist allows you to save shows from anywhere, all in one place Sky channels, Sky Sports HD and Sky Cinema HD Netflix standard with ads Mega Volt bundle Blazing-fast speed for busy households gaming and streaming at the same time WiFi guarantee TV from everywhere, at home and on the go Sky Cinema HD and Sky Sports HD Netflix standard with ads Like all providers, Virgin Media will hike prices during the contract term and at its conclusion, so it's wise to negotiate a better deal with them or be prepared to switch to a new offer. It's also crucial to verify that Virgin Media's cables are accessible in your area, as not every household can connect to this Internet Service Provider (ISP). Alternatively, while Sky doesn't have any free offers ongoing, it does have some cheaper alternatives. Sky's £35.99 Essential TV and Full Fibre 150 bundle is a great cheaper alternative. EE is also a good provider to consider for those who want just internet. The brand has some of the fastest speeds from £29.99 if TV is something that's not needed.

Virgin Media's free TV deal ends soon as countdown begins
Virgin Media is giving away 4K smart TVs worth £250 but the deal is due to end on Wednesday Virgin Media is urging customers to act now to avoid missing out on a free TV giveaway. The provider recently relaunched a popular deal offering new customers a free 50' Hisense Ultra HD Smart TV or £200 bill credit when they sign up for select TV and broadband bundles. However, Virgin has now started a countdown to the end of the deal at 11.59pm on Wednesday, July 9. One major difference to the latest deal is its eligibility across a range of plans; usually, Virgin's giveaways are only available with its most pricey packages, but the latest deal can be secured by those on a range of budgets. The most affordable option is the £44.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Movies, which provides access to more than 200 TV channels including Sky Cinema HD, plus 362Mbps fibre broadband. Sports fans may prefer the £65.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Sports as it replaces Sky Cinema with eight dedicated Sky Sports channels. There's also the option for a faster internet connection, with the £78.99 Biggest Combo bundle boosting the broadband to a speedy 516Mbps alongside more than 210 channels, as well as both Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and Netflix's Standard with ads plan. Virgin's all singing, all dancing package is the £84.99 Mega Volt bundle, which boasts more than 230 TV channels including Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and Netflix Standard with ads, plus a mega 1,130Mbps broadband. Members also receive an O2 SIM card with unlimited data, minutes and texts. New customers securing any one of these four packages can choose between the free Hisense TV or £200 deducted off their monthly bills. However, Virgin recently made a change to its TV and broadband plans that may be off putting for Brits who value flexibility. Previously, Virgin's plans ran for 18 months, but they have now been extended to last for 24, matching the minimum term of rivals like Sky. While Virgin does not charge a set-up fee with these plans, the same contract length makes the cheaper price point of Sky's £35 Essential TV and Full Fibre 150 Broadband bundle more appealing. While this plan includes roughly 100 channels less than Virgin and offers slower broadband, it may be a better option for those looking to keep costs down. It's also worth noting that, like most providers, Virgin plans to increase its monthly prices every April in an inflation-linked rise. Virgin has already confirmed members on the Bigger Combo bundle + Movies will pay £48.49 per month from April 2026 and £51.99 from April 2027. Here's a full breakdown of the eligible TV and broadband packages: Bigger Combo bundle + Movies – £44.99 per month 362Mbps average download speed 200+ TV channels Sky Cinema HD and Sky channels Bigger Combo bundle + Sports – £65.99 per month 362Mbps average download speed 200+ TV channels Eight Sky Sports channels, including Main Event and F1 Biggest Combo bundle – £78.99 per month 516Mbps average download speed 210+ TV channels Sky channels, Sky Sports HD and Sky Cinema HD Netflix Standard with ads Mega Volt bundle – £84.99 per month

Virgin Media hands out free 4K smart TVs in flash summer sale – but it's ending soon
Virgin Media is offering new customers a free 50" Hisense 4K TV with its TV and broadband bundles, but the deal is set to end in days Virgin Media is back with another giveaway, this time offering free smart TVs in a flash summer sale. The provider is gifting new customers a free 50" Hisense Ultra HD Smart TV or £200 bill credit when they secure one of its TV and broadband bundles by Wednesday, July 9. Typically, Virgin's giveaway deals are only available with its more expensive TV and broadband offerings, but the latest deal is much more affordable. The most budget-friendly bundle is the £44.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Movies, which comes with more than 200 TV channels including Sky Cinema HD, plus 363Mbps fibre broadband. For those who favour sports over films, Virgin's £65.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Sports includes the same 362Mbps broadband and more than 200 TV channels. However, it replaces Sky Cinema with eight dedicated Sky Sports channels. For those who crave even more speed, the £78.99 Biggest Combo bundle boosts that broadband to a swift 516Mbps and piles on more than 210 channels, complete with both Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and Netflix's Standard with ads plan. The final option is Virgin's Mega Volt bundle at £84.99 a month, which boasts all the bells and whistles, including more than 230 TV channels featuring Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and Netflix Standard with ads, plus mega 1, 130Mbps broadband. On top of all this, the bundle comes with an O2 SIM card with unlimited data, minutes and texts, reports the Express. Each of these four packages includes a choice of a free TV or £200 bill credit. Each contract runs for 24 months and include no set-up fee. To check service availability, customers will need to enter their postcode on Virgin's website. However, one caveat is that each of the bundles will experience a price increase from April 2026, followed by another rise in April 2027, so it's vital to do the maths and ensure one can comfortably manage the bills over the two-year contract. When compared to Sky's own TV and broadband plans, Virgin typically comes in pricier, but it also offers more bang for shoppers' bucks by providing faster broadband and more TV channels. Sky's options start with the £35 Essential TV and Full Fibre 150 bundle, which includes roughly 100 channels fewer than Virgin's TV package, although one of these is Sky Atlantic which Virgin does not offer. There's also Sky's ultimate TV and Full Fibre 300 Broadband deal, which has 35 extra channels compared to the Essential package. It starts at £42 a month for a 24-month contract. Here's a breakdown of the eligible free TV packages:. Bigger Combo bundle + Movies – £44.99 per month Ideal for connected homes with four to six people and 10+ devices TV from everywhere, at home and on the go Sky Cinema HD and Sky channels Bigger Combo bundle + Sports – £65.99 per month Ideal for connected homes with four to six people and 10+ devices TV from everywhere, at home and on the go Eight Sky Sports channels, including Main Event and F1 Biggest Combo bundle Great for super-connected homes with six to eight people and 10+ devices My Watchlist allows you to save shows from anywhere, all in one place Sky channels, Sky Sports HD and Sky Cinema HD Netflix standard with ads Mega Volt bundle Blazing-fast speed for busy households gaming and streaming at the same time WiFi guarantee TV from everywhere, at home and on the go Sky Cinema HD and Sky Sports HD Netflix standard with ads It's recommended to thoroughly read the terms and conditions for any potential price hikes post-contract to avoid an unexpected hefty bill. If the cost is due to surge in the 25th month, consumers should be able to cancel before this happens, but consider whether this potential inconvenience is worth the initial free TV.
