Beyond the £50 —
why Virgin's worth the switch.
Virgin Media has been named the UK's most reliable broadband provider two years running, and the Volt bundle (with O2) layers in mobile, free WiFi pods and roaming benefits worth up to £692 a year. Here's what you actually get.
Gig1 fibre, up to 1.1Gbps
Virgin's full-fat tier averages 1,136Mbps — over 9× the UK fibre average. M125 starts at £23.99/month with average speeds of 132Mbps.
UK's most reliable network
Named "Most Reliable Broadband Provider" by Uswitch in 2025 and 2026. Built on Virgin's own dedicated cable network — not Openreach.
Free perks if you've got an O2 SIM
Pair Virgin broadband with any O2 Pay Monthly plan and unlock: speed boost to the next tier, double mobile data, WiFi guarantee with up to 3 free pods, and roaming in 75 countries.
Up to £250 toward exit fees
If you're tied into another provider, Virgin pays up to £250 of your early termination fees — separately from the £50 referral. Submit your final bill within 60 days of activation.
What you'll actually pay.
The actual questions you'll have.
Once your service has been installed and you're past Virgin's 14-day cooling-off period, Aklamio confirms the reward — usually 60 days after install. You then log into your Aklamio account and withdraw the £50 to your bank account via BACS or to PayPal. Most people see the money in their account within five working days of requesting withdrawal. In some cases Aklamio can take up to 9 weeks if there are extra checks.
Yes — Aklamio is Virgin Media's official refer-a-friend partner, listed on Virgin's own help pages. The link sends you straight to Aklamio's portal, which forwards to Virgin's real checkout. You're never asked for payment by anyone except Virgin Media, and the cashback is paid by Aklamio after Virgin confirms your service is live.
Yes — the £50 Aklamio cashback usually stacks with Virgin's standard new-customer promotions, including the up to £250 switching credit for early termination fees from your previous provider. So you can potentially pocket £50 cash from Aklamio and up to £250 bill credit from Virgin. Read Virgin's offer terms before ordering to confirm.
The £50 doesn't pay out. Aklamio waits until your 14-day customer satisfaction guarantee period has expired before confirming the reward, so you need to stay with Virgin past that window. After 14 days you're free to do whatever — keep the service, switch later — and the £50 still pays out at the 60-day mark.
All of Virgin's main consumer packages: superfast fibre broadband (M125 through Gig1), digital TV bundles, home phone, and Volt bundles when paired with O2. Mobile-only Virgin Mobile referrals pay £25, not £50. Excluded: Mates Rates, My Rates, Tribe, Partner Rates, 30-day rolling contracts, Essential broadband social tariffs, and any upgrade or extension to an existing Virgin contract.
Just start your application via the red button on this page. The Aklamio link tracks your referral automatically — you enter your email so Aklamio can match the eventual payout to you, then you're forwarded to Virgin's normal checkout. If you'd rather order over the phone, Virgin's telesales accept the referral code RQWFQWKO at the point of sale.
Volt is the bundle you get when your household has both Virgin Media broadband and an O2 Pay Monthly mobile plan. At no extra cost you get: a free broadband speed boost to the next tier (up to 1Gbps), double mobile data on every eligible O2 plan in the household, a WiFi guarantee with up to 3 free WiFi pods if needed, and free roaming in 75 countries via O2 Travel Inclusive Zone. If you (or anyone in your home) is already on O2 Pay Monthly, Volt is the no-brainer pick.
Don't switch without the £50.
Same Virgin Media, same packages, same prices — plus £50 cash to your bank account that you'd otherwise leave on the table.
