Virgin Media mobile phone deals & offers on contract

Virgin Media is the rebranding of NTL:Telewest, the outcome of a merger between NTL and Telewest. The new arm of the Virgin empire combined television, internet, mobile and landline phone services into one simple service. Virgin Media offers internet broadband as well as owning a large number of television channels and also operates its own mobile phone network operating through T-Mobile´s infrastructure.

Virgin is a large company with its fingers in many pies but primarily focusing on travel, entertainment and lifestyle. While Virgin Media´s mobile service operates through T-Mobile they do offer a differing service to the latter company.

The Virgin Media website is not specifically oriented to phones but encompasses the four major areas of interest to the business venture as well as being a hub for other online content such as news, sport updates and general entertainment gossip.

Like the phone stores for network providers O2 and Orange, the Virgin Media website only offers deals for phones on the Virgin Media network. Because of this it is the ideal place to look for a new phone if you want to belong to this network but not if you would prefer to be or stay on one of Virgin Media´s rival networks. Coming straight from the provider itself you can be sure to find the best deals for Virgin Media phones on their website, and also some many great deals for Pay As You Go phones. Virgin Media do not offer sim-free handsets although they do sell standalone sim cards to place in a phone you may already own. Due to its large business size Virgin Media is able to offer some very competitively priced tariffs for their phones and also have a great selection of new and older handsets on offer. As well as selling phones Virgin Media also sell a wide range of mobile phone accessories and also provide insurance for phones purchased.
