Virgin Media has launched a new sale event with its “lowest ever” prices on a range of TV and broadband bundles
Virgin Media is giving Sky a run for its money, launching some enticing new deals that tout the “lowest ever” prices. Subscribers can currently snap up savings of over £460 on select bundles.
The top-notch Biggest Combo bundle, now at a reduced rate of just £64.99 a month from the previous £91, includes perks like Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, Netflix, and swift 350Mbps internet speeds.
During this sale, Virgin pledges an 18-month period of discounted delight. Those not keen on Sky Cinema but eager for sports can opt for the Bigger Combo bundle + Sports HD, which has dipped from £71 to £59.99 per month, tallying a total save of £198 across the contract, as reported by The Express.

This particular package comes with all Sky sports channels, a TV 360 Box, and gear-crunching 362Mbps broadband. A heads-up for cost-conscious customers anticipate a modest price hike in 2025 due to annual increases, and don’t forget to haggle at the end of your term, or you’ll be socked with a steep rise to £150 monthly after the initial 18 months end. It’s worth comparing these numbers to what Sky’s slinging in their latest offer.
A quick look at Sky’s current deals reveals that you can bag a Stream box with Netflix, Sky Sports and Entertainment for just £58 per month. This deal is £1.99 cheaper than Virgin’s offering, but it does come with slower download speeds and doesn’t include a landline with free weekend calls.
If you decide to add 500Mbps and Sky Cinema to your package, the monthly cost jumps to £74 – nearly £10 more than Virgin’s Biggest Combo bundle. It’s also worth mentioning that unlike Virgin’s 360 box, Sky Stream doesn’t have an internal hard drive, instead storing content on the cloud.
You can check out our full review of the Sky Stream box here, but in short, this compact device offers a hassle-free TV watching experience, with easy access to services like Netflix and Disney+.
The box comes with a back-lit remote, personalised recommendations and can be installed by yourself, eliminating the need for an engineer visit. As we mention above a suitable alternative would be Sky’s TV packages, or shoppers could look at EE’s TV and broadband sale.
