This Black Friday through to Cyber Monday, Virgin Media is offering Sky Sports for just €1 per month for 6 months to new customers signing up to a number of different tripleplay bundles. Read on for all the details.
From today until the end of Monday the 27th of November, any new customer signing up to a tripleplay bundle including the Full House TV package will be eligible to add Sky Sports onto their package for just €1 per month for 6 months. Check out the plan details below:
Full House TV, 240Mb & Anytime Mobile
What do you get?
With this tripleplay deal from Virgin Media, when you sign up you’ll get unlimited 240Mb/s broadband, 100 TV channels, anytime calls to Irish landlines, calls to international landlines and calls to Irish mobiles included in your plan.
If sign up between now and Monday, you can add Sky Sports in standard definition for €1 per month for 6 months, or you can get it in HD for €6 per month for 6 months.
How much does it cost?
This deal comes with an introductory discounted price. For the first 6 months, you’ll pay €69 per month. After this period, the price will rise to €94 per month. (This price excludes Sky Sports options).
How long is the contract?
12 months.
Full House TV, 360Mb & Mobile World
What do you get?
With this tripleplay deal, when you sign up you’ll get unlimited 360Mb/s broadband, 100 TV channels, anytime calls to Irish mobiles and landlines as well as calls to international landlines and mobiles included in your plan.
As with the previous deal, if sign up between now and Monday, you can add Sky Sports in standard definition for €1 per month for 6 months, or you can get it in HD for €6 per month for 6 months.
How much does it cost?
This deal is also discounted for the first 6 months. Initially, you’ll pay €74 per month and then the price will rise to €99 per month for the second half of your contract. (This price excludes Sky Sports options).
How long is the contract?
12 months.
Are there any catches?
Yes, unfortunately, there is a minor catch. Some customers might wonder if they can cancel their Sky Sports package after the €1 offer period ends. The answer is yes, but with a stipulation; customers will be allowed to cancel their Sky Sports premium but they are required to keep it for a minimum of 30 days after the offer period ends. Only then can they cancel. What this means is that customers will essentially be required to pay for one month of Sky Sports at standard pricing, which amounts to an extra €40.
Is this a good deal?
This deal should be great news for sports fans, especially for Premier League enthusiasts, as we head into the busy Christmas season with some great matches lined up.
December 10th looks particularly good as fans can settle down for Liverpool v Everton, closely followed by Manchester United v Manchester City.
There are also some great fixtures to be enjoyed over the Christmas holidays including Liverpool v Swansea City on St. Stephen’s Day, Newcastle United v Manchester City on the 27th of December and Crystal Palace v Arsenal on the 28th.
