Why? It’s Freeview Play and it’s free TV!
In the UK we’re in the middle of a cost of living crisis and the bad news is TV providers like Virgin could be making it even worse by increasing their prices.
Virgin Media have recently announced they’ll be raising their prices for their current customers by an eye watering 13.8% on average. This price hike will come into effect from the 1st April 2023, unfortunately this is not an April Fools’ joke.
There may be some good news for Virgin customers as they’re one of the few providers which allow their customers to switch or cancel their contract if they’re going to be affected by this price rise.
So what are your options?
Out of the frying pan…
Maybe you’re thinking of a Virgin Media Cancellation so as to move to another supplier such as Sky or BT but, with the current rate of inflation, all of the big TV providers will be raising their prices.
Are there any better deals to be found? We think there’s a much better and more cost effective solution. Ditch your TV contract, keep your broadband contract and make the most of the free TV available in the UK thanks to Freeview Play TV.
