A guy who my mum worked with ages ago came into the shop today and he now works for telewest. He told her that if you are a telewest customer you can get an exclusive virgin mobile deal
300 minutes any network
300 texts
£10 a month
He said it starts on 26th Sept so we will see!
He also wrote down some information on this piece of paper and mentioned a code number which is "326" anyone know anything about this?

I am not saying you are lying but on forums it is common for many assertions to be made and so now without evidence very little is treated as fact but one can give opinions.
However if it indeed does turn out to be true and it is reasonably plausible except I wouldn't have thought these deals would be across ntl and telewest customers and would be released in a marketing blizzard with all the other offers.
like - speed increase i.e 4meg becomes 10 and 10 becomes 20, that was so called suppose to happen this month
line rental was to be lowered - now someone says wait till october
new code drop - supposed to be down last month, now should be tomorrow around 6:00am
virgin deal as stated in this forum on 26th - strange to launch it on a tuesday, why not fully launch on 14th feb when they get the go ahead.
voip service - wont even go there
so u see all hype

also does not state weather its just a sim deal or phone deal, those that dont have a mobile in the first place aint going to cough up money for a brand new mobile to wack in a sim chip, yes i know there is cheaper ones but if they get another network its also unblocking the phone etc
The Customer Relations guy was very polite and chatty,
he also told me about the Virgin Mobile deal.
1. £10 a month (monthly contract NOT any longer)
2. 300 anytime mins (landline or Mobile)
3. Available to any exsisting customer
4. Free Sim card (You can choose to buy a handset if you wish)
5. Launches officially 1st of October but you can sign up from the 26th.
6. you call telewst to do it, they pass a code on to virgin
then you qualify for the deal

it's probably a cheaper version of the sim only deal you can get already[albeit with a 12 month contract...for £15 you get 300+300 and you get your virgin broadband free through bt....fiver discount and no contract is good! taking this instead of the landline is cheaper than their talk anywhere packages. i wonder if they've realised this?
if you're interested in a cheap line through virgin you could get a cheap cashback deal. last time i checked on e2save it was about a year of 200+300 for 30 quid in total after all the cashbacks...some nasty phone but you could always sell it and break even, get the year for free.
but yeah, lets see what comes out of this. :cool:
Not any more it isn't
It is if you're on Pay as You Go though, cracking deal.
well that depends... :rolleyes:
high street deals (I use the term deals loosely) are for mobile only minutes
all of the o2 online deals cover 0845/0870
Never quite worked out the appeal of pay as you go deals, but yes absolutely...
I can assure you that I am not telling porkies, I was suprised to see that someone had beaten me to posting
the info, as the Customer Relations Guy seemed very sincere, and only mentioned the "deal" during the conversation regarding my services, I managed to get a price reduction of £26 on my telewest services, he asked
if I had a Mobile phone and who it was with.
You can take this with a pinch of salt too if you wish but
the same guy also told me that Talk weekend price was dropping to £3.99 and Talk unlimited to £9.99 apparently before the end of the year.
Anyway not long now to find out if the guy from Telewest was talking out of his backside
