Hi all. Contracts almost up and am thinking about moving over to Virgin (from Vodafone) as they have some great deals on atm. I never really see them mentioned much on here and was just wondering what opinions are about them.

Cheers
Shaun

    I have a Virgin contract and have had no problems if I dont use the alloted minutes and texts I dont pay for them. The only issue I have is when I turn my phone on I get about 5 messages telling me to be carefull when dialing, even though I havent made any calls since turning it on!

    Like any mobile contract, check the signal strength in your area. Mine was great at my old place. Rubbish at my new place. Have had no problems whatsoever with virginmobile :)

  • Changed to virgin just over a week ago, very straightforward, no problems so far, and an excellent deal into the bargain!

    I've been with virgin for several years now and never had any problems. Just changed my package as well - again, very straight forward.

    Been with them on a rolling SIM-only basis for years so I have a great deal and like that I can leave without penalty any time. Never had any problems.

    Virgin use the T-Mobile network so the coverage is good.
