Unlimited Broadband - March 2008
Virgin Media
The big news this month is that Virgin Media have slashed the price of their unlimited 2Mb connection to just £4.50 a month if you take out a phone line with them.
At this price many people will consider joining Virgin in addition to having an ADSL connection. Use the Virgin connection for all your big downloads, and get a cheap 'capped', 8Mb ADSL package for general surfing, online gaming etc. View an unlimited broadband comparison table here.
Virgin have also cut the price of their 4Mb to £17, and their 10Mb connection to £29 a month. If you order Virgin online they give you a £10 discount too.
Of course, if you're thinking about getting Virgin, you can get digital TV with an HD set-top box for an extra £25 a month. If you like this way of thinking then it's worth checking out this Virgin vs Sky comparison page, as Sky can work out cheaper for certain configurations, and they offer unlimited broadband too.
