I wonder what their contracts will offer. Interesting that EE will let them have access to 4G later this year...

I'd say the most interesting aspect of that is the possibility of Virgin being given access to LTE.
'Unlimited' data with tethering included and LTE at bargain prices would be exceedingly tempting...

Is Virgin truly unlimited on 3G just now?

Um kind of. There is a 10gb fair use policy. Once you hit it your speeds are slowed to 384kbps between midday and midnight. So it is unlimited, just with throttled speeds after 10gb.

It includes tethering for now but virgin plan to remove/block it soon.

Oh and those of you who expect a truly unlimited offering on 4Gat bargain/3G prices are getting wayyyyy ahead of yourselves.

Will be interesting to see what p4u do though. I wonder what type of customers they'll try and compete for.

No, hence the apostrophes.
But you get 10GB before throttling and tethering is included, which is a bargain for £12.

Really?
That's a shame, they were a fallback for me if T-Mobile stopped offering me such a good deal.

Yeh I dont know too much about it but its due to take place soon. Maybe if you ring virgin the guys can tell you if they have a dat yet.

The good thing is that virgin customers who took out the unlimited plan before the date tethering is removed will.still be able to tether.
