Last updated: Friday 6 November 2026
Has Virgin Media launched Black Friday broadband deals for 2026? Virgin Media’s broadband page carries “Black Friday deals are here” banners for “lowest ever prices on selected bundles”, and as listed on 6 November 2026, broadband only starts at £21.99 a month for M250 and M350, with M500 at £24.99 and Gig1 at £26.99 on 24-month terms. Virgin Media’s broadband page also advertises switching credit of up to £300, but its separate terms page shows up to £200, so the amount is not confirmed. This SwitchSquid Black Friday guide compares those broadband-only prices, explains the switching credit, and links to three Virgin Media plans. If you buy through the links on this page, we may earn a commission; it does not change your price.

Switching credit for leaving a contract early
As listed on Virgin Media’s broadband page on 6 November 2026, switching new customers can claim account credit equal to early termination fees, up to £300 (whichever is lower), within 60 days of activation and with proof of a final bill. Student, 30-day rolling and Essential broadband contracts are excluded, and there is no cash alternative.
Important: Virgin Media’s separate switching-credit terms page showed “Up to £200 Switching Credit” on 6 November 2026, for orders placed between 6 November 2025 and 10 December 2025. The two Virgin Media pages give different amounts and neither explains the difference, so do not count on £300. Check the credit amount with Virgin Media before you order or pay an exit fee.
Virgin Media Gig1 broadband for £26.99 a month
- £26.99 a month for Gig1 Fibre Broadband on a 24-month minimum term, as listed on 6 November 2026
- Average download speed about 1136Mbps, broadband only
- Main limitation: £40.24 a month after the 24-month term, and you need Virgin Media coverage; compare M500 at £24.99 if gigabit is not essential
Which plan fits before Black Friday shopping peaks?
Most homes will not need Gig2. M350 at £21.99 is the practical pick for families; M500 at £24.99 suits heavier use; Gig1 at £26.99 is the small step up when you want gigabit. If you are leaving another provider early, read the switching-credit rules and keep proof of your final bill.

Shoppers comparing Black Friday broadband should also weigh Openreach full fibre where it is available at the same address. A cheaper full fibre alternative can beat Virgin Media on price even when Virgin’s M350 sits at £21.99, especially if you do not need Virgin’s TV stack. Run both postcode checks before you commit to a 24-month term.
Our pick
For most postcodes that can take Virgin Media, M350 at £21.99 as listed on 6 November 2026 is the Black Friday-season value to beat. Take Gig1 only if you will use the speed. Confirm any switching credit in the basket rather than assuming £300 will apply.
Virgin Media M500 broadband for £24.99 a month
- £24.99 a month for M500 Fibre Broadband on a 24-month minimum term, as listed on 6 November 2026
- Strong mid-high tier for busy households
- Main limitation: £37.94 a month after the 24-month term, and coverage varies by address
How Virgin Media’s November offer sits in Black Friday season
Black Friday 2026 falls on 27 November. Virgin Media listed these broadband-only prices on 6 November 2026, so use them as the benchmark when you compare Black Friday broadband offers. If your basket shows a different monthly price for your postcode, the basket price is the one you will pay.
This page focuses on Virgin Media’s cable and nexfibre footprints and the switching credit Virgin Media lists for new customers moving from another provider.
Broadband only versus phone and TV add-ons
The three purchase buttons on this page open Virgin Media’s M350, Gig1 and M500 plan pages. If you want a landline, Virgin Media’s broadband-only page also listed M350 broadband with Virgin Phone (Weekend Chatter) at £24.99 a month on 6 November 2026, then £37.94 after the minimum term, compared with £21.99 for M350 broadband only. Compare both baskets if you need a home phone.
For television, Virgin Media’s TV page on 6 November 2026 listed Broadband + Flex TV from £28.99 and Entertainment from £31.99, with higher Cinema and Sport tiers. Those figures sit above broadband only, as you would expect when channels are included. If you want a mobile SIM with broadband, compare Virgin Media’s Volt bundles separately.
Speed tiers in plain English
M125 suits light browsing and streaming for one or two people. M250 and M350, both £21.99 as listed on 6 November 2026, add headroom for more devices. M500 at £24.99 is the busy-household tier. Gig1 at £26.99 is for large downloads and many concurrent streams. Gig2 at £49.99 is only relevant where Virgin Media’s full fibre footprint is available at your address.
Headline download speed is not the whole story. Wi-Fi placement, mesh kits and the age of your devices often matter more day to day than jumping from M350 to Gig1. Put the router in an open central spot before you pay for a higher tier you will not use.

FAQ
Are these official Virgin Media Black Friday deals?
Virgin Media’s broadband page carries “Black Friday deals are here” banners and says its “lowest ever prices” apply to selected bundles. It does not say which broadband-only plans count, so this guide shows the plan prices Virgin Media listed on 6 November 2026. Confirm the price in your basket before you order.
What is the cheapest Virgin Media broadband plan here?
As listed on 6 November 2026, M250 and M350 broadband only at £21.99 a month were the lowest broadband-only prices, with M125 higher at £23.99. Both are on a 24-month minimum term, then £34.49 a month, according to Virgin Media’s offer terms.
