New research from Virgin Media O2 reveals that almost a third (29%) of frustrated Brits have experienced running out of their monthly mobile data. Luckily, for those data hungry households who want more bang for their buck, Virgin Media O2 is offering a helping hand by giving customers who have services with both brands extra perks at no extra cost.

Plus, they’ll get Virgin Media’s market-leading WiFi guarantee included within their bundle – all at no extra cost.  

The research also showed that 78% of Brits would feel more confident in their broadband service if their provider offered a money back WiFi guarantee, enabling them to  game, stream and download in every room without fear of their broadband running slow. As part of Virgin Media O2’s ‘Volt’ offering, customers can save £8 per month and will get extra peace of mind with Virgin Media’s WiFi guarantee, which offers minimum download speeds of 30Mbps in every room or £100 credit back.    

Following Virgin Media and O2 joining forces in 2021, Virgin Media and O2 customers can supercharge their services and reap extra rewards simply by being customers of both brands.  

The company’s best of both offering, Volt, is available to new and existing customers who take services from both Virgin Media and O2. Available exclusively to households with ANY Virgin Media broadband package and an eligible O2 Pay Monthly mobile plan, customers can enjoy extra value without paying a penny more.

Those new to either Virgin Media or O2 will be able to upgrade to Volt when they add relevant services to their connectivity line-up. For example, if they already have Virgin Media, they just need to add an O2 Pay Monthly plan, while existing customers of both Virgin Media and O2 simply need to enrol via MyO2 to get their services supercharged – at no additional cost.
