“Broadband only” means getting the internet into your home without relying on a landline. That means either opting for Virgin Media’s ultrafast service, which uses its own cables to reach your home, or going for a full fibre broadband deal, also known as fibre to the premises (FTTP).
These options do not require a traditional landline, like ADSL or standard fibre broadband, which uses copper wires from your nearest street cabinet to complete the journey into your property. Sadly, if you want one of these deals, you’ll still need a landline. The good news is that you can choose deals that do not have a phone package attached, meaning you don’t have to pay for calls.
If you want a phone deal, then you should look into bundling your broadband with a phone package. And to save further, check out broadband and TV deals and triple-play bundles, too. Great if you love watching lots of movies or live sport - and it's generally cheaper to combine your services, rather than buying each as a standalone service, with average savings falling between 17 and 34% according to the Ofcom Pricing Trends Report 2023.
