Virgin Media is giving away free iPads - but only for a limited time
The broadband provider isback with its free iPad deal for shoppers - here's everything you need to know about the Apple handout Virgin Media is back with one of it's most popular deals, which bags shoppers an Apple iPad for free. The catch being consumers will have to sign up to its package, but it drops the £200 price of the 65GB 9th Gen iPad model to £0, so we've rounded up the deal to see if it's worth buying. A standout offer for any UK consumers looking to upgrade their broadband and TV plans. Customers who pick Virgin's broadband and TV package will receive the 64GB Apple device at no extra cost - you can buy here. This deal is part of the provider's Mega Volt Package, a combined plan that includes internet access and television services. Subscribers will get high-speed broadband, mobile data, and a range of TV channels for a straightforward monthly fee. This comprehensive package, ideal for busy households, and is priced at £88.99 per month. Although customers will have to commit to an 18-month long contract. The 64GB iPad 9th Gen model, typically valued at £200, will then arrive as part of the plan for free - a deal not currently available elsewhere. This isn't the first time we've seen this offer; it's an upgrade from previous free bill credit deals, with the provider last promoting this deal in March. This isn't Apple's latest device (it's a 2021 model), it boasts a 10.2-inch screen, a robust processor for speed, and remains compatible with Apple's keyboard case and Apple Pencil. Meanwhile, Amazon's newer 10th Gen iPad deal is also worth considering - here. Alternatively, Sky Mobile doesn't offer a free device with its plans, but it does have the much more recent 2024 iPad Pro 13-inch M4 on a cost-splitting plan, now available for £34 a month. Returning to Virgin's enticing offer, here's a detailed breakdown of what customers receive with the bundle. Here's everything included in the Mega Volt package. What's included on the Mega Volt package? The plan includes Gigabit speed broadband. This includes Virgin Media's fastest broadband, Gig1 Fibre, offering customers an average download speed of 1130Mbps. This also comes with WiFi guarantee of 30Mbps in every room, if not shoppers will get a £100 refund. The TV part of the plan has more than 250 channels and includes a standard Netflix subscription. Sky Sports HD and Sky Cinema HD at no additional cost are included too. The Mega Volt package also comes with a 250GB O2 SIM which includes data roaming of up to 25GB, with 75 worldwide locations like the USA, Australia and 49 EY destinations on the list. At £88.99 per month on an 18-month contract, it's clear this isn't a small investment, particularly if you're only interested in the free iPad - in which case, it might not be worth it and we'd suggest shopping around. However, if you're in need of a new TV and broadband plan, the complimentary iPad is certainly a bonus.

Virgin Media has reintroduced one of its most popular deals from 2025, offering a free iPad to UK consumers who need a broadband upgrade. Customers who subscribe to one of the retailer's broadband plans will receive a 64GB Apple device at no extra cost, although this offer is only available on one plan. The free iPad is included in Virgin Media's Mega Volt Package, a combined plan that offers broadband and TV services.

Customers who commit to the monthly plan will receive a 64GB iPad 9th Gen model, typically priced at £200, completely free. This deal is not currently available anywhere else. The provider last offered this deal in March, as an improvement on its previous free bill credit deals, reports the Mirror. Although this isn't Apple's latest device, it's a 2021 model. It features a 10.2-inch screen, a decent processor for speed, and is compatible with Apple's keyboard case and Apple Pencil. At the same time, Amazon's newer 10th Gen iPad deal is worth a look at too. Alternatively there is Sky Mobile, which isn't offering any free device with its plans, but it's got the much newer 2024 iPad Pro 13-inch M4 on a cost splitting plan and it's now available for £34 a month. Virgin's attractive deal offers a comprehensive bundle for consumers. Here's what the Mega Volt package includes: Gigabit broadband: Virgin Media's fastest broadband, Gig1 Fibre, which provides customers with 1130Mbps average download speeds. WiFi guarantee: Virgin Media's market-leading WiFi guarantee is included at no extra cost (usually £8 per month), offering customers minimum download speeds of 30Mbps in every room or £100 back.

Mobile: A 250GB O2 SIM which includes data roaming (up to 25GB) in 75 worldwide including USA, Australia and 49 EU destinations at no extra cost. O2 Extra: Customers can choose a subscription service including Disney+, McAffee, Amazon Prime Video or Audible for six months at no extra cost. The Mega Volt plan combines both into one neat package. It provides internet speeds of 1130Mbps (Gig1 fibre broadband), over 230 TV channels, and access to Sky Sports and Sky Cinema HD. At £88.99 per month on an 18-month contract, it's not a small sum if you're only after a free iPad, so it might be worth shopping around. However, if you're in need of a new TV and broadband plan, the complimentary iPad is definitely a bonus.

Virgin Media is handing out Apple iPads for broadband users
Virgin Media is giving away free Apple iPads to shoppers Virgin Media has brought back one of its biggest deals of 2025 as it brings back its free iPad deal, a standout offer for any UK consumers in need of a broadband upgrade. Shoppers who sign up to one of the retailers broadband plans will get the 64GB Apple device completely for free, but it's only available on one plan. It's included on Virgin Media's Mega Volt Package, a combo plan that bundles broadband and TV into one offering high speeds, mobile data and TV channels all in one. An ideal plan for busy households, priced at £88.99 per month bill payers will now walk away with an iPad for £0. Shoppers who lock into the monthly plan will get the 64GB iPad 9th Gen model, usually worth £200, for free, an offer which isn't currently being offered anywhere else. It's not the first time we've seen this deal, as a step up from its older free bill credit deals, the provider last offered this deal back in March. This isn't Apple's flagship device, it's from 2021 to be exact. It comes with a 10.2-inch screen, has a decent processor for speed, and is still compatible with Apple's keyboard case and Apple Pencil - at the same time, Amazon's newer 10th Gen iPad deal is worth a look at too. Alternatively there is Sky Mobile, which isn't offering any free device with its plans, but it's got the much newer 2024 iPad Pro 13-inch M4 on a cost splitting plan. Now available for £34 a month. Back to Virgin's eye-catching deal and this is exactly what consumers get with the bundle. Below is a full list of what the Mega Volt package includes. The Mega Volt package includes: Gigabit broadband: Virgin Media's fastest broadband, Gig1 Fibre, which provides customers with 1130Mbps average download speeds. WiFi guarantee: Virgin Media's market-leading WiFi guarantee included at no extra cost (usually £8 per month), offering customers minimum download speeds of 30Mbps in every room or £100 back. TV: A huge variety of 240+ TV channels and subscription services including Netflix standard with ads, Sky Sports HD and Sky Cinema HD at no extra cost. Mobile: A 250GB O2 SIM which includes data roaming (up to 25GB) in 75 worldwide including USA, Australia and 49 EU destinations at no extra cost. O2 Extra: Customers can choose a subscription service including Disney+, McAffee, Amazon Prime Video or Audible for six months at no extra cost. The Mega Volt plan bundles both into one concise package. This comes with internet speeds of 1130Mbps (Gig1 fibre broadband) more than 230 TV channels, plus access to Sky Sports and Sky Cinema HD. It's no secret that at £88.99 per month - on an 18-month contract- this is a hefty price to pay if you're only on the look for a free iPad and arguably not worthwhile so we'd recommend looking around if that's the only reason. If you need a new TV and broadband plan the the £0 iPad is certainly a win.
