Virgin hands out free 4K TVs to Brits beating this deadline
Virgin's latest TV giveaway ends on Wednesday.
Virgin Media is back with one of its TV giveaways, but the clock is ticking before the deal ends on Wednesday. Last week, the provider kicked off a seven-day 'lightning deal' where customers can sign up for certain TV and broadband bundles and get a free 4K smart TV.
However, the deal is entering its final hours and is due to expire at 11.59pm on Wednesday (August 13). Shoppers who sign up to one of four 24-month Virgin packages before the deadline will receive a 50" Toshiba Ultra HD TV worth £259.99.
Customers can choose a £145 bill credit instead if they prefer, with Virgin also waiving the £35 setup fee. This isn't the first time Virgin has run the deal, but this time it comes alongside the brand's Summer of Sports sale, which means as there's also discounts of up to £336 up for grabs.
This comes just in time for the start of the new Premier League season, which gets underway on Friday. The eligible packages include Virgin's Bigger Combo bundle + Sports and Biggest Combo bundle, both of which come packed with hundreds of TV channels, super-fast fibre broadband and Sky Sports access.
These are the perfect plans for sports fans, providing eight dedicated Sky Sports channels including Main Event, Premier League, Football, Golf and F1. Moreover, Virgin is offering a TNT Sports add-on for £5 per month for three months, a significant drop from the usual £25, providing access to additional Premier League and UEFA Champions League matches.

Virgin Media Get the deal here
Virgin Media is giving away a free 50" Toshiba smart TV or £145 bill credit to customers securing one of its TV and broadband bundles.
However, there is a catch to Virgin's plans, as the provider will hike its prices each April during the 24-month term in an inflation-linked change similar to rivals like Sky and BT. For example, the Bigger Combo bundle + Sports will rise to £58.49 from April 2026 and £61.99 from April 2027.
The free TV comes with the following packages:
Bigger Combo bundle + Movies – £44.99 200+ TV channels, Sky Cinema HD, 362Mbps broadband
Free 50' TV or £145 bill credit
Bigger Combo bundle + Sports – £54.99 (was £65.99) 200+ TV channels, Sky Sports HD, 516Mbps broadband
Free 50' TV or £145 bill credit
£264 discount
Biggest Combo bundle – £64.99 (was £78.99) 210+ TV channels, Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD, Netflix Standard with Ads, 516Mbps broadband
Free 50' TV or £145 bill credit
£336 discount
Mega Volt bundle – £79.99 (was £84.99) 230+ TV channels, Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD, Netflix Standard with Ads, 1,130Mbps broadband, O2 SIM card with unlimited data, calls and texts
Free 50' TV or £145 bill credit
£120 discount
In other news, Sky is offering its own Sky Sports plan for £20 per month for new customers, which works out at roughly 66p per day over 30 days. This introductory price can be added on to an existing Sky TV package, while those without a membership can snap up the £35 Essential TV and Sky Sports bundle.
This comes as the brand increases its Premier League coverage from 128 games to at least 215 from the 2025/26 season. Sky claims this represents 80% of all televised games, but keep in mind football fans can catch each fixture with both Sky and Virgin's sports packages.

Man Utd files: Red Devils chiefs give up on Carlos Baleba transfer as all eyes turn to Viktor Gyokeres vs Benjamin Sesko
VIKTOR GYOKERES will be playing at Old Trafford on Sunday – and many expected it would be his permanent home this summer. Ever since Ruben Amorim's appointment was confirmed at Manchester United back in the autumn, the Swede was linked to the Red Devils. 8 8 And that only heated up as the Portuguese boss struggled to get goals from his team over the final months of last season. Amorim's admiration for his former Sporting Lisbon striker has always been clear – but United's interest in him never really got off the ground. Word came back early on that Gyokeres had set his heart on a move to Arsenal this summer so United switched their attention elsewhere. Amorim insists he is delighted to have landed Benjamin Sesko – who he believes will be United's main forward for many years to come. The United boss has had just five working days to bond with Sesko, who has only played against the under-21s in a United shirt, so a start against Arteta's Gunners might be too big an ask. But with Rasmus Hojlund on the verge of joining AC Milan on loan and Mason Mount playing as a false No9 last time out - Sesko might have to be deployed instantly. Opponents Arsenal tracked 6ft 5in Sesko for a very long time, a move seeming nailed on amid the Sporting-Gyokeres transfer saga. In the end, the North London club got Gyokeres over the line. The strikers offer a similar profile, with Arsenal's new star a more traditional, powerful target man, while Sesko combines physicality with greater mobility. The Sweden international has scored over 100 goals for club and country over the past two seasons - more than Sesko has yet managed in his career. Wayne Rooney reveals gang of masked thugs turned up at his home after row with Sir Alex Ferguson over Man Utd exit But he is 27. A signing for the here and the now who has already shown what he's capable of with a glancing header in Arsenal's rampant 3-0 pre-season win over Athletic Club. Sesko's goal output might not be as impressive as Gyokeres', but his 39 goals for RB Leipzig in all competitions over the past two seasons means he's Europe's highest goalscorer of players under 23 in that time. 8 CARL IT QUITS ANOTHER player who Amorim admires is Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba – who has been linked with a switch to Old Trafford over recent weeks. However there is an acceptance at United that the Cameroon will not be moving to them this summer. The asking price from the Seagulls is simply too hot for the Red Devils, who have splashed out more than £200million on their forward line this summer. Baleba is believed to fancy the move though – so watch this space in 12 months time. 8 SESK ON FIRE BENJAMIN SESKO'S agent has confirmed he held talks with several other clubs before sealing the dream switch to Manchester United. Newcastle's interest was well documented – while there were reports in Spain that Barcelona were keen on the £74million Slovenian. Now Elvis Basanovic – whose Pro Transfer Agency have guided him through out his career – has spoken about a hectic few weeks. But he admits all their efforts will be worthwhile when he sets foot on the Old Trafford turf for the first time this weekend. Basanovic said: 'It's been a tough summer. The story dragged on for a long time, including talks with other clubs. 'There was a lot of work, travel, stress and little sleep but in the end, it was worth it for something extraordinary. 'I couldn't wait to see Benjamin walk into the Theatre of Dreams.' The agent hopes Sesko's story will inspire other young players from their tiny nation to aim for the very top. He added: 'Benjamin proved that even from small Slovenia, you can achieve big things. 'I hope other young players there will dream big, work hard and realise amazing goals.' 8 SIGN OF THE TIMES RUBEN AMORIM'S new signings have captured the imagination of their supporters this summer. Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko hope to add the goals and a bit of excitement that were sadly lacking last year. Meanwhile popular club captain and talisman Bruno Fernandes has chosen to stay despite strong interest from Saudi Arabia in May. Yet club legend Rio Ferdinand revealed it was a different name that supporters wanted on their backs during the tour of North America this summer. Former skipper and centre back Harry Maguire was the most popular name – according to Rio, who interviewed the England defender this week. 8 THIS IS THE ONE UNITED are doing all they can to improve the atmosphere at the Theatre of Dreams this summer. Not surprisingly, given the lack of excitement and goals, things were a little flat for Prem games last season. Now The Red Army fan group have requested the music is turned off 15 minutes before kick off to allow supporters to crank up the noise. The same request has been made for the minutes after a home win – when regulars are currently treated to 'Glory Glory Man United'. The Old Trafford faithful have been given the chance to fill in a survey to make their feelings known on the matter ahead of the curtain raiser against Arsenal. Organisers have made it clear they still want two traditional pre-match favourites to remain – no matter what the outcome. 'Country Roads' by John Denver and Stone Roses Classic 'This is the One' will continue to be played no matter what is decided. 8 CASA AMOR STAFF who survived Sir Jim Ratcliffe's wave of redundancies were given metal WATER BOTTLES with the club's new motto sprayed across: 'BADGE, BRAVERY, SPIRIT' to take home with them this week. United's twist on Love Island bottles served as a reminder of chief executive Omar Berrada's newly set core values relayed during a big group meeting at Carrington on Monday. That meeting served as a chance for directors Jason Wilcox and Marc Armstrong, as well as Amorim, to give an overview of how the summer has gone. Wilcox, United's director of football, applauded latest signing Benjamin Sesko during his speech, praising 'Benji' for showing tremendous desire to join the club. He claimed the 22-year-old striker rejected further offers of a higher salary from fellow suitors Newcastle, even after he had agreed personal terms at Old Trafford - a point rejected by people at St James Park. On the topic of wanting United above all else, Amorim grabbed the opportunity to thank skipper Bruno Fernandes for returning down a 'big money move to Saudi Arabia'. This is the first time United have started a season with the manager and football structure both chosen by Ratcliffe's Ineos regime. 8

Liverpool v Bournemouth: Premier League season opener
Update: Date: 2025-08-15T18:30:13.000Z Title: These two clubs are on the verge of doing some business with each other … Content: Premier League updates from 8pm BST at Anfield Match previews | Reds sign Leoni | Email Scott here Scott Murray Fri 15 Aug 2025 20.30 CEST First published on Fri 15 Aug 2025 19.30 CEST 8.30pm CEST 20:30 … but that's not the only news of Liverpool in the market today. 8.24pm CEST 20:24 Season previews. Time for one last look before the first ball is kicked in anger. 8.06pm CEST 20:06 Slot continues: 'We have lost many players and brought in many … even yesterday we brought in one who is not available yet … we have lost a few very good players … the ones we brought in are special as well … in general [in pre-season] we don't concede more chances, but the ones we do concede have led to goals.' Updated at 8.26pm CEST 8.00pm CEST 20:00 Arne Slot speaks to Sky Sports, and first addresses the impact on his squad of this tragic summer. 'The players are far better than I expected five or six weeks ago … in that moment in time, you feel will it ever be possible to play again? … but they have conducted themselves so, so, so well … on both sides they were great, as a human being, but they also understood they have to be professional football players again … so we had to work hard, and that's what we started doing.' Updated at 8.25pm CEST 7.54pm CEST 19:54 Liverpool name four Premier League debutants this evening. Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez all start, as they did at Wembley against Crystal Palace last weekend in the Community Shield. Bournemouth aren't far behind them in that regard. They've got three new players in their line-up tonight: goalkeeper Đorđe Petrović, left-back Adrien Truffert and central defender Bafodé Diakité all make their competitive debuts for the Cherries. 7.49pm CEST 19:49 Liverpool: Alisson, Frimpong, Konate, van Dijk, Kerkez, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo, Mamardashvili, Gomez, Endo, Chiesa, Jones, Elliott, Robertson, Nyoni, Ngumoha. Bournemouth: Petrovic, Smith, Diakite, Senesi, Truffert, Adams, Scott, Brooks, Tavernier, Semenyo, Dennis, Araujo, Soler, Junior Kroupi, Hill, Traore, Billing, Winterburn, Rees-Dottin. Referee: Anthony Taylor (Cheshire). Updated at 8.07pm CEST 7.45pm CEST 19:45 Diogo Jota is pictured on the cover of this evening's match programme. Arne Slot pays tribute to Liverpool's No20 and his brother André Silva in his notes, which confirm that Jota's wife Rute Cardoso, his children and family will be at Anfield this evening. There will be a moment of silence before kick-off, the players will wear black armbands, and Liverpool will wear a Forever 20 emblem on their shirts and jackets. We know that this will be a very emotional occasion, given it is the first league game we have played since we lost Diogo and André. As I have said previously, the tributes that have been paid throughout the football world, and especially within the LFC community, have been truly special, and I know that tonight we will come together to honour them once more. I believe that Diogo's wife, his children and his family will be in attendance and it is important that, as a club, we show that they will always have our love and support as they deal with this most tragic of situations. We are there for them always.' Updated at 7.45pm CEST 7.30pm CEST 19:30 Almost exactly one year ago – 363 days, to be precise – Liverpool found themselves struggling during their season opener at Portman Road. Newly promoted Ipswich Town had been the better team in the first half, and with nearly an hour on the clock, the score remained goalless. But then Trent Alexander-Arnold curled in from the right, finding his team-mate who ... ... flashed a header wide from six yards, when it was surely easier to score. Ah well. No matter, though! That team-mate, an indefatigable bundle of joyous energy, selfless commitment, Fowleresque skill, and straight-up fun, wasn't to be disheartened. He simply came at Ipswich again, 60 seconds later, entering the box to meet a Mohamed Salah pass by calmly and adroitly whipping a firm sidefoot into the corner. The first goal of the Arne Slot era, a crucial momentum-shifter, and the first step towards Premier League glory. Diogo Jota took Liverpool to victory. Better than Figo, don't you know? A year is a long time by any reasonable measure, but with another season opener upon us, all of that feels particularly distant now. Anfield, staging its first competitive fixture since the tragic passing of Diogo and his brother André Silva, will remember, grieve and celebrate those beautiful, beloved boys tonight with a special Kop mosaic in their honour. Then a game of football will take place. Kick-off will be at 8pm UK time, and Jota is forever Liverpool's number 20.

‘I'm unhappy.. it's coming from our building' – David Moyes slams Everton MOLE after information leaked ahead of opener
DAVID MOYES hit out at an Everton mole for leaking news of Jarrad Branthwaite's injury before the season opener against Leeds. Moyes' Toffees kick off their new campaign at Elland Road on Monday. 1 And they face a tough task against Daniel Farke's newly promoted side after struggling for signings. But Everton's mission will be even harder after star defender Branthwaite was ruled out of the Leeds trip with a hamstring injury. The news came out ahead of Moyes' press conference on Friday. And he made no secret of his disdain for Everton's mole while confirming Branthwaite's absence. Slamming the leak while addressing the severity of the injury, Moyes said: 'I wouldn't give that information away anyway. 'But I'm sure that the insider at the club will give it out. 'We have got to find out who it is, who is giving the news out. 'I am unhappy with it; all managers don't like it. 'It is certainly coming from within our building, and it is up to us to put a stop to it, and we will do.' Meanwhile, new signing Jack Grealish could be thrust into the starting XI against Leeds. Premier League Star Doucoure Set for Saudi Switch! The winger joined on a season-long loan deal from Manchester City. And Moyes hinted Grealish could play from the off. He added: 'Grealish looks the same, big calves. 'You need to turn up and find out whether he starts. That's what everyone needs to do. 'I think Jack can play in several positions, I think he can play midfield as well. 'He doesn't give the ball away very often, but my aim is to get Jack in positions where he will get goals and assists for us. 'It's a big challenge for Jack as well. I'm looking forward to see how he responds to it.'
