Virgin Mobile Coverage?

egfcomps

Hi,

I am looking for a new phone on a cheap tariff, I am currently with o2 but they haven't offered me anything good enough to encourage me to stay with them.

I have looked at virgin mobile, as I already have TV, Broadband, landline with them.

But what is the coverage like with them, the deals are good but thats on a 24 month contract and if I cant use the phone it's not much use.

Also does anyone know if I can get a better deal by going into one of their shops and haggling? Or am I entitled to a discount cause I already have my tv/broadband package with them??

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Virgin use T mobile I believe so you can check the coverage on their site.

I've been with virgin mobile for over years, coverage is perfect, i travel a lot with work, I had a 10 quid a month sim only deal for 300 mins and 300 texts, reluctanct to let it go but have just bought the iphone on 3. Virgin don't do iphone or i would have stayed with them

I went in store and took a contract with Virgin for a smartphone, all showed great signal where I live on the computers for 3G and 2G. It was wrong but the shop did a no quibble cancellation. They had said that they did this when I took the offer.

Literally the following day they took the handset back in used condition (stickers all taken off etc) and within 5 mins I was outside the shop to look around again.

Great service, shame the signal didnt match the suggestion on their site in my area.
