Hi

Does anyone know how much is the data limit on this offer? http://store.virginmedia .com/virgin-media-mobile/pay-as-you-go/mobile-pay-as-you-go.html

It doesn't state the requirements to get this 12 months data, except maybe using on of their phones? Too good to be true?

Otherwise, their simply8 tariff for VM customers seems decent.

    you get 1GB per month, you get a voucher with the phone that you activate and that will give you the 1GB per month which would normally cost £5 to buy each month http://www.virginmobile.com/vm/genericContent.do?contentId=our.promotions.footer.sm191

    You have to buy one of the phones listed with the offer.

    "Save £60 with twelve months free data or BlackBerry® services
    Offer ends 30th September 2012 or while stocks last. The phone box will contain a voucher for 12 months Mobile Web that must be activated before 30 April 2013. Follow the instructions on the voucher to activate. 1GB Mobile Web is subject to a fair use policy and allowance of 1GB per month (the "Bundle"). UK use only. The Bundle will be added to your account within 48 hours after the voucher is activated and then on the same date for a further 11 months. Each Bundle is valid for one month or until used. If you exceed the Bundle allowance, you will be charged at our standard rate for daily Mobile Web for the Pay As You Go tariff that you are on."

  • Did anyone get this working? I have the card, but it only has a 9 digit number on it, not 10 as it should be.
  • I would keep trying. You only have until April 2013 to use it.
