£165 cashback on Virgin Media

lichung

I am planning to take the 10mb cable with line rental offer which is overall cheaper
the only thing is virgin charges £40 for installation for 10mb..........
they seem to have a "Connect a friend" scheme that can waive the installation charge

is it possible to do a quidco cashback and "connect a friend" together?

I went through quidco twice, ordered the tv package in my own name and then ordered broadband using my mothers name.

Are they both for the same address? I can't see them paying out twice if they are. Although if they do that's one hell of a deal.

If you work it out, taking the 10mb bb and a phone line works out more expensive than bb alone. I don't think you can use the connect a friend option online. You can select self install for £20 if you already have virgin/ntl/telewest plumbed in to your property.

Yes both for the same address, for all Virgin know, it could be student accommodation. Both have tracked so far so i'm happy

Hi

If you are allready a vigin media subscriber ( well my brother is). I've have never been their customer hence I'm New. I want to have the following offer:

Sky Sports 1 & 2, with top TV package from £23 a month.

My household allready has phone, tv and internet. Hence I wouldn't need the phone line.

Hence would it work out as follows:

£23*12 = £276 - £165 Cashback Final Amount = £111

So will have all the top TV package 160 channels and also sky sports 1 and sports 2 all for 111 on a 12months contract.

Is this calculation correct...???

Many thanks

p.s They won't need to do installation as allready have it with on the household.

i know the bb deal is cheaper but I need a landline though

I've got through to the stage of selecting the date of installation but there is no option for self install....... a bit of a headache

Did anyone's deal track overnight?

Just asking because last week I took up the £65 cashback (where it tracked an hour later at midnight) but then cancelled within the cooling off period and applied again yesterday, however there was no track today.

It's a great deal - 9 month student contract at £20/month - 165 = £15 for broadband for the year.

No it wouldn't work out like that, to pay £23 for the tv package you'll also have to take out a phone line @ £11.99 a month, it doesn't matter that the household already has one.

So £23 + £11.99 = £34.99 per month, add to that sky sports 1+2 which are £14.50 each you're total is £63.99 a month. You'll still have to pay for install which you can get for £20 if you self install.

You'd be better off having the Tv only @ £29 per month, sky sports collection @ £22.50 per month. Total is £51.50 per month. Add £20 for self install and your annual cost is £618 - £165 quidco = £453 devide by 12 = £37.75 pm

Both have tracked not long after order and this morning they had also validated.
