For just four days only, you can secure a free Nintendo Switch or £200 bill credit when you switch to Virgin Media.
Contrary to popular belief, ‘April showers’ doesn’t mean it’s raining – it means deals and new releases are pouring in!
So far this spring, we’ve seen a Lebara deal which offers 20GB data for just £1.99 a month, £400 off the Acer Nitro 16 Gaming Laptop which features in our best laptop deals page, and Disney Plus dropped the price of its standard subscription from £4.99 to just £1.99. Now, Virgin Media has entered the ring with this Nintendo Switch offer.
Although we still perceive 2017 as being two or three years ago, it’s actually been seven years since Nintendo released its handheld console, the Nintendo Switch – and in 2024, it’s still one of the most popular gaming devices around.
There are three models of the Nintendo Switch console to choose from: the original Nintendo Switch (which features in this Virgin Media offer), the Nintendo Switch OLED, and the Nintendo Switch Lite. You can play a whole host of exciting games on the Nintendo Switch, such as Mario Kart 8, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Minecraft and FIFA 23.
For a limited time only, you can claim a free Nintendo Switch when you switch to Virgin Media. The big draw to Virgin Media is that you’re able to put your TV, broadband and phone costs together in one convenient payment, which not only makes it easier to manage each bill, but can cut costs, too.
Virgin Media also partners with mobile provider O2 for its Volt deals: Virgin Media products and services alongside an O2 SIM card.
