Virgin Media are offering new and reconnecting Virgin Broadband and Virgin Mobile customers free Spotify Premium access worth around £10 per month as part of a new deal.
 New or reconnecting Virgin Broadband customers who take out an XL (30Mb), XXL (50Mb) and 100Mb broadband deal will get themselves 6 months free Spotify Premium access which has allot more enhanced features and usability than the free Spotify option. The 6 months free Spotify Premium is worth around £60.
The same deal applies to new and reconnecting Virgin Mobile customers who take out a pay monthly contract and have a compatible mobile phone, they will receive 3 months free Spotify Premium access.
Also, when in the UK there will be no data charges for using Spotify although data charges are likely to apply when listening abroad.
Spotify is an award winning completely legal music service that allows you access to over 15 million different music tracks and albums that you can listen to when you want, you are even able to have the music available to you when you go offline. Songs you select will stream immediately so you don’t need to worry about downloading a full song before you can listen to it.
The executive director of digital entertainment at Virgin Media, Cindy Rose, said:
“The launch of Spotify on Virgin Media marks a significant milestone for digital entertainment and the way it is enjoyed by consumers. Great digital services are no longer just about fast broadband or the latest TV technology, but increasingly about how people use their services to power and excite their daily lives. Bringing together Virgin Media services with brilliant entertainment such as Spotify is a core part of our ongoing strategy and we’re excited to be able to lead the way with such a great partnership.”
Going forward we expect to see more content tie-ups between broadband providers and content providers, especially as the increase of broadband speeds continues to grown and content can far more easily be delivered online.

BE Broadband are bringing in the New Year by dropping the price of their BE Value package by £5.
As of now BE Broadband Value costs just £7.50 per month, down from £13.50, for an 8Mb broadband service on their ADSL2+ network that also offers 1.3Mb upload speeds.
 The usage allowance has been changed from Unlimited to 40Gb, but for most 40Gb should be more than enough per month for most. This is the reason for the drop in price, customers had told BE Broadband that they would prefer a capped service for lower prices than paying more for an Unlimited service. It also means that customers won’t be affected by traffic shaping based on what it is they are downloading and will be able to use their usage allowance as they wish.
The deal is available on a 12 month contract and means that a years supply of broadband costs just £90 which is the cheapest ADSL2+ service in the UK.
Those customers who may be affected by the capped usage will be contacted by BE to discuss their usage and a possible upgrade to an Unlimited service.
----------------------------------
O2 are offering 2 months free O2 Broadband until the end of January.

Existing O2 customers receive a £5 discount per month on each of the home broadband packages which brings their cheapest broadband in at just £7.50 per month for an 8Mb deal with Unlimited transfer (fair usage policy applies).
The 2 months free could mean that new O2 Broadband customers could save up to £45 depending on which package they choose and if they are an existing O2 customer or not.
O2 Broadband is an award winning broadband supplier, having won plenty of consumer awards for it’s customer service and the fast reliable broadband that it offers so anyone looking at changing broadband providers could make a great saving by moving to O2 Broadband now.
