Services
Virgin Mobile sells pay as you go and contract airtime as well as mobile phones.
The company also provides mobile broadband services with speeds of up to 7.2Mbit/s and allowances of 1 and 3GB depending on the chosen package, provided through the EE 3G network. The service includes a Huawei E160 USB modem dongle painted black with a silver Virgin Mobile logo.
Mobile phone and broadband services are also marketed through Virgin Media and its high street stores.
Since early October 2011, Virgin Mobile customers have been able to use the Orange UK network where there is no signal from T-Mobile UK. This followed the merger in 2010 of T-Mobile UK and Orange UK to form EE. The merger led to some areas losing signal after T-Mobile decommissioned areas which already had Orange coverage.
