What to expect from the Virgin Media Black Friday sale
There are likely to be huge savings to be found in Virgin Media’s Black Friday sale, including all-inclusive bundles and mobile deals.
Virgin is usually one of the first major internet/TV providers to launch its Black Friday sale – so it’s definitely one to watch.
It is also worth keeping an eye on Sky and BT for new deals too – so you’re able to compare before spending your money.
Does Virgin Experience Days do Black Friday?
Absolutely, we’re expecting to see big discounts on Virgin Experience Days this Black Friday.
Last year, deals included money off spa breaks, afternoon tea and racing car rides – check out our preview to the Virgin Experience Black Friday 2021 event to find out more.

Virgin Atlantic has not yet announced its Black Friday event, but we certainly expect the airline to take part.

Virgin Media’s Black Friday Bundle Deals
Ultimate Oomph Bundle

- Virgin Media Ultimate Oomph Bundle – buy here
This is Virgin’s ultimate, all-inclusive bundle.
It offers lightning fast M500 Fibre Broadband, amazing TV and never-ending mobile data.
Included in the Oomph Bundle are all Sky Cinema and Sky Sports channels in HD, BT Sport Collection (including a 4K Ultra HD channel), and over 250 TV channels.
Virgin also offers two V6 boxes as part of this bundle, so customers can enjoy Multi-room services.
For Black Friday 2020, the Ultimate Oomph Bundle was priced at £77.99 a month for 18 months, then £139 a month.
For context, Sky’s all-inclusive package currently costs £68 and offers over 100 channels, including Sky Sports and Cinema.
However, you don’t get BT Sport with Sky’s offer, and Virgin’s internet speeds are considerably quicker.
The company’s mobile deals are also separated from broadband and TV, so you’ll have to pay extra to get a SIM and/or a new phone.
Bigger Bundle

If you already have a satisfying mobile data plan and are just looking for a TV and Broadband deal, the Bigger Bundle may be the one for you.
The bundle offers over 210 TV channels including BT Sport in 4K Ultra HD, as well as M200 Fibre broadband and inclusive weekend calls.
A Virgin TV V6 box is also included to easily pause, rewind and record programs.
The Black Friday price last year for the Bigger Bundle was £44.99 a month for 18 months, then £88 a month.
The Bigger Bundle still has more channels than Sky’s best all-inclusive package, and costs almost £20 less.
