The deal with Virgin Media is supposed to end on Wednesday, but it will be for £250 worth of 4K smart TVs.

If customers act quickly, Virgin customers will receive this Hisense smart TV for nothing.

Virgin Media is urging customers to act now to avoid missing out on a free TV giveaway. The provider recently relaunched a popular deal offering new customers a free 50” Hisense Ultra HD Smart TV or £200 bill credit when they sign up for select TV and broadband bundles.

However, Virgin has set the countdown to the deal’s conclusion set for 11:59pm on Wednesday, July 9. The most notable difference between the most recent deal and its eligibility across a variety of plans is that, typically, Virgin’s giveaways only work with its most expensive packages, but people with a wide range of budgets can get the most out of the most recent deal.

The most affordable option is the £44.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Movies, which provides access to more than 200 TV channels including Sky Cinema HD, plus 362Mbps fibre broadband. Sports fans may prefer the £65.99 Bigger Combo bundle + Sports as it replaces Sky Cinema with eight dedicated Sky Sports channels.

There’s also the option for a faster internet connection, with the £78.99 Biggest Combo bundle boosting the broadband to a speedy 516Mbps alongside more than 210 channels, as well as both Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and Netflix’s Standard with ads plan. Virgin’s all singing, all dancing package is the £84.99 Mega Volt bundle, which boasts more than 230 TV channels including Sky Sports HD, Sky Cinema HD and ads-filled Netflix Standard, plus a mega 1,130Mbps broadband.

Unlimited data, minutes, and texts are also included with an O2 SIM card for members. The free Hisense TV or the £200 that will be deducted from their monthly bills are available to new customers who purchase any of these four packages.

However, Virgin recently changed their TV and broadband plans, which might turn off British customers who value flexibility. Prior to now, Virgin’s plans lasted for 18 months, but they have since been extended to 24 in order to match rivals’ minimum terms, such as Sky.

While Virgin does not charge a set-up fee with these plans, the same contract length makes the cheaper price point of Sky’s £35 Essential TV and Full Fibre 150 Broadband bundle more appealing. While this plan includes roughly 100 channels less than Virgin and offers slower broadband, it may be a better option for those looking to keep costs down.

It’s also worth noting that, like most providers, Virgin plans to increase its monthly prices every April in an inflation-linked rise. Virgin has already confirmed members on the Bigger Combo bundle + Movies will pay £48.49 per month from April 2026 and £51.99 from April 2027.
