    Hi There,

    I am a Virgin Media customer and have subscribed to their mobile phone tarriff exclusive to cable customers - £10 per month for 300 xnet anytime minutes and 300 text messages (The best deal on the market).

    When I took the offer out three months ago you could only apply for two of these sim cards with the exclusive £10 tarriff.

    I recently phoned them this morning to see if I could acquire another two of these sim cards but was told that the 2 per household rule still applies.

    Does anyone know why this rule still applies? They are basically turning down an extra £20 per month.

    Your thoughts please....

    they dont have any way to tie accounts to the ntl account, i doubt they would complain if you just called them up and ordered 2 more sims, they might be able to track it to your address but if you just say that they belong to a different householder (lodger etc) they should be fine.

    basicly dont tell them and they should put it through no probs.

    does the £10 a month just go onto your NTL bill? or is it completely seperate?

    My parents are with Telewest, but i'm not. I would be interested in taking out this deal, but would I be allowed since technically I personally do not have a VM account?

    i've got virgin tv, broadband, phone but they seem to be failing me from their virgin phone deal? it is kind of annoying when they are already getting from me money for the tv phonr broadband directly from my account, but they are not happy to give me deal for mobile as well.


    what can i do?
