Virgin Media Student Broadband
Whether you're moving into halls or sharing a house with friends, Virgin Media's student broadband is designed to keep everyone connected throughout the academic year.
With dedicated 12-month contracts, unlimited data and some of the fastest widely available broadband speeds in the UK, it's a great choice for everything from online lectures and video calls to 4K streaming and competitive gaming.
Better still, student broadband offerings can still benefit from Volt boosts, with Priority from O2 offering perks and rewards just for being a customer!
M125
M125 is the entry-level student package, delivering average download speeds of 132Mbps and 20Mbps upload speeds. It's ideal for smaller student homes or flats where a handful of devices are connected throughout the day.
You'll have more than enough speed for browsing, coursework, HD streaming, video calls and social media, while still leaving room for housemates to stay online at the same time.
M500
If your household is constantly streaming, gaming and downloading large files, M500 offers a significant boost with average download speeds of 516Mbps and upload speeds of 52Mbps.
It's well suited to larger student houses where multiple people are online simultaneously, making it easy to enjoy smooth 4K streaming, fast downloads and low-latency gaming without worrying about the connection slowing down.
Gig1
For the busiest student households, Gig1 delivers average download speeds of around 1130Mbps and 104Mbps average upload speed.
Whether you're downloading huge course files, live streaming, backing up work to the cloud or competing online, Gig1 has the capacity to handle dozens of connected devices with ease.
It's Virgin Media's fastest student broadband package and is ideal for homes where everyone relies on a consistently fast connection.
Built for student life
Virgin Media's student broadband deals come with 12-month contracts, making them a practical fit for most university tenancies.
With no setup fee and unlimited data included as standard, it's easy to budget throughout the academic year without worrying about usage limits.
Priority, perks and add-ons
Students can also take advantage of Virgin Media Priority from O2, which gives customers access to exclusive rewards, competitions and offers throughout the year.
It's a nice extra that adds value beyond your broadband connection, with regular discounts and experiences plus exclusive 48-hour ticket presales to thousands of gigs nationwide available through the Priority app.
If broadband alone isn't enough, Virgin Media also offers the option to bundle your connection with TV services, giving you access to a huge range of entertainment, sport and movies in one package.
Combining your services under one provider can make managing your monthly bills that little bit easier while keeping your student home fully connected.
