Are you ready to be moved?
We’ve unleashed VIVID – our next generation optical fibre.
VIVID is a whole new way to experience the internet. It travels at the speed of your life, up to 200Mbps, so you can see more, do more and have more fun. All brought to you by the magic in our cables, DOCSIS® 3.
No 1 does it better
Get ready, something ultrafast is coming your way. According to Ofcom’s report published in February 2015, we’ve officially got the fastest average broadband download speeds widely available in the UK#. And it’s all thanks to our whizzy fibre optic cables. What’s more, it’s our sixth year running with that title. Not bad hey?
Unlimited downloads! No hidden charges
If you love to download stuff, then you’re going to love this. With us you can download to your heart’s content because when we say unlimited, we mean it. And unlike other providers we won’t charge you a penny more.
Winning speeds – how’s this for the trophy cabinet?
No matter what you’re up to online, we think our broadband is second to none. But you don’t have to take our word for it. We picked up three titles at the 2015 uSwitch.com Broadband Awards – Best Broadband Provider, Best Customer Rated Broadband and Fastest Broadband.
DOCSIS® 3 technology is the magic in our cables
Our specially designed cables are powered by DOCSIS 3 technology that shoots straight from the cabinet in the street into your house. These cables give you a better broadband experience than other widely available providers who use copper cables to reach your home. So you can juggle loads of data-hungry devices with a consistent stream of up to 200Mbps to your home.
Storm-proof viewing on Virgin TV
We don’t care what the weatherman says when the weatherman says it’s raining. You’ll never hear us complaining. Because Virgin TV comes to your home via a cable powered by DOCSIS 3 technology, so extreme weather won’t play havoc with your TV picture.
