Broadband - No minimum Contract

Hello all,

We are due to move early next year and will be moving somewhere were we will be unable to take our broadband supply with us. My contract with Virgin is due to run out in November, is there any where I can get broadband on lower than a 12 month contract? We'll only need it until Feb/March time.

    Continue with Virgin for those extra 3-4 months.

    will i not be asked to sign up for a further 12 months? or does it just turn into a rolling contract after your initial 12 months have passed?

    It goes to a rolling contract, once you have satisfied the minimum term. You'll only have to commit to another minimum term if you take up a new special offer.


    However, you will still have to give the requisite amount of notice, when you wish to leave.

    You may well be offered a discounted rate in return for a new minimum term. But you're under no obligation to accept it.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
