Can I combine social tariff's from 2 providers ?

Options

Hi

 

I'm at looking at sorting a disabled family member's broadband, TV & home phone out.

There with Virgin Media at the moment and I've just figured out I can transfer them to a social tariff getting broadband & stream for £20 a month with a rolling 30-day contract.

However, there is no inclusion of  a phone line in any of the available social packages.

After some checking I discovered that BT would provide a phone line for £10 a month in a similar capacity.

I don't think there would be any issue with my relation accessing these discounts, but I'm unsure whether they could get both at the same time.

Virgin Media don't offer a discounted phone, BT don't offer a TV package, both together could be a possibility.

I've read all I can find and can't see anything that says it's not allowed.

Anybody got any insight into this ?

 

 Thanks to all who comment.

    In theory it should be possible if eligible as they use separate networks.

    BT do provide tv though so you may want to look at those packages too
