SIM-only deals for existing customers

Existing Virgin Media customers can get the Virgin Mobile unlimited plan for €15 per month for 12 months, saving €120.

The plan comes with unlimited calls, texts and data, so it should work well for heavy users.

This is a SIM-only, 30-day bill-pay contract, so you won’t be tied into any long contracts if you sign up.

If you don’t think you need an unlimited plan, you could opt for Virgin Mobile’s 5GB plan instead.

This plan is also a SIM-only, 30-day bill-pay contract and comes with 500 minutes, 500 texts and 5GB of data - and you’ll get this full allowance when roaming, too.

SIM-only deals for new customers

The table below shows Virgin Mobile’s SIM-only deals for new customers.

If you’re choosing one of these plans, you’ll need to consider whether a set allocation of minutes, texts and data works for you, or if you’d prefer an unlimited deal.

Why choose Virgin Mobile?

• Virgin Mobile has two distinct SIM-only plans, to suit light and heavy users.
• With ‘Roam like at Home’, you can get the exact same allowance on calls and texts while roaming in the EU as you have at home. With the Virgin Mobile’s unlimited plan, you’ll get 13.6GB of data, while with the 5GB plan, you’ll get the same allowance in the EU as you do at home.
• Customers can manage their account quickly and easily online with My Virgin Media.
• Customers can get an International Add-On - which includes 350 international minutes a month to The USA, Canada and 44 EU and other European destinations - for just €5 per month.
• If you like, you can move to a cheaper plan, or add more minutes, texts and data, at any stage - and the change will take affect on your next billing date.
• Switching is super easy - and you can even bring your current mobile number with you! Once you receive your SIM, you can register or sign in to your My Virgin Media account to move your number to your new Virgin Mobile SIM.

Virgin Mobile’s network coverage

Virgin Mobile is a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), which means that rather than having its own network, it uses one that’s already established to provide its customers with network service.

Virgin Mobile runs off Three’s network (which merged with O2 in 2015). Virgin Mobile says that, with this network, it has 99.6% population coverage (97.2% coverage for 3G data and 86.8% for 4G data services).

What this means in practice is that if you - or people in your local area - have good reception from Three, Virgin Mobile should work well for you, too.
