Virgin Media O2 entices new customers with sports deal

21 February 2023

As annual price rises kick in, some viewers may be considering a switch. Virgin Media O2 is offering a sweetener to all new customers, with access to all Sky and BT Sports channels.

Until 31st March, new Virgin Media customers in the UK can enjoy all Sky Sports and BT Sport channels as well as M500 broadband for £65 per month. The company says this works out £33 a month cheaper than Sky.  

Virgin Media’s Bigger + Sports bundle will give subscribers access to the climax of this year’s football season, plus the England v New Zealand test series on BT Sport, plus F1 coverage from Sky Sports F1.

The M500 Bigger + Sports bundle comes with M500 broadband which offers ultrafast average download speeds of 516Mbps, so families can enjoy streaming live sport on multiple devices throughout the home seamlessly using Virgin TV Go.

UHD access to Sky Sports is available for an extra £7 a month. Since the beginning of February, Virgin Media offers subscribers three Sky Sports UHD feeds.
