    Only Virgin that I know of allow this. However, the cost is barely less than having a package of both broadband and phone together..

    As a new customer how do I get better deals than the ones displayed on their website?

    Am I eligible for retention deals as a new customer?

    Any codes/cashback with virgin?

    How can they RETAIN you if you aren't yet a customer?

    Retention deals are for people who are out of the minimum term and decide to cancel.

    New customer deals are always available, but they are generally made on packages of several services together.

    I challenge you to find any provider offering broadband alone significantly cheaper than when packaged with telephone...
