Talk Weekends offers unlimited weekend calls to UK landline (01, 02, 03) numbers, Virgin Mobiles and 0870 numbers.

A step up from our Talk Weekends call plan is Talk More Weekends. As well as getting inclusive weekend calls to UK landlines∆, Virgin Mobiles and 0870 numbers, you’ll also get unlimited weekend calls to 0845 numbersϪ and all other UK mobiles.

It’s often cheaper to take a broadband and phone deal than to have home broadband without a landline – so, why not combine both services into the same package, and one easy bill.

All broadband and phone bundles come with Talk Weekends. Of course, if you’d prefer, you can upgrade your landline plan and have more inclusive minutes and home phone features. Overall, you’ll have a choice of six home WiFi speeds, ranging from 54Mbps (the essential M50 Fibre Broadband) to our fastest 1,130Mbps (Gig1 Fibre Broadband).

Our landline plans include line rental in the total price. Talk Weekends, our standard price plan, is £19 a month for line rental. If you choose one of our other packages, the price will increase slightly. And then if you choose an add-on, such as Talk Extra International or Talk International, you’ll pay that fee in addition to your line rental.

In short, no, you don’t need a landline to get broadband. You can get our superfast speeds without a phoneline because our broadband runs on fibre-optic cables and coax cables, not a traditional copper telephone line. Our broadband only deals are ideal if you don’t want a landline.

All our landline call plans in our bundles come with inclusive minutes, from the simplest to the talk-any-time-of-the-day callers. You may be charged a fee per minute if you call a specific number. To give you a better idea, explore the different call costs for each bundle so that you know exactly how much dialling might cost you.

When it comes to finding the best landline deal for your house, there are plenty of things to keep in mind. Whether you live alone, in a house share or you have a busy household, your home phone deal should be one that works for your needs. Let’s explore some of the things you should consider:

Inclusive calls

If your calls can go on a bit, getting a landline deal with a limited number of minutes to call other home phones might prove expensive in the long run. Luckily, Virgin landline has five call plans available so you’re bound to find one that works for you.

Talk Weekends, our simplest call plan, is your starting point. You’ll get inclusive weekend calls to UK landlines∆ and Virgin Mobile numbers, plus inclusive weekend calls to 0870 numbersϪ.

Inclusive minutes to mobile numbers

Before you get carried away though, the inclusive calls to mobile numbers and all UK landlines is only for the weekend. Monday to Friday, daytime and evening calls come at a cost.

Our lowest bundle price is our Big bundle with Talk Weekends. It comes with Fibre broadband, over 100 channels with Mixit TV and inclusive weekend calls to UK landlines, Virgin Mobile numbers and 0870 numbersϪ too.

Have an add-on, like Talk Extra or one of our paid for calling features, that you don’t really use? Or perhaps you’re on one of our higher end phone line plans with inclusive minutes to mobiles or international landlines? You might be able to save money on your landline plan if you take off the added extras or downgrade to our simplest call plan, Talk Weekends.

You’ll need to check your contract first to see if you can make the switch to something cheaper that we offer. If you can’t find the info on your contract, dial 150 for free from your landline and speak to our customer services team.

Regardless of which phone plan you choose with your bundle, the set-up fee is the same. You’ll need to pay a one-off activation fee of £35 when you place your order. Thereafter you’ll only have to pay your standard monthly costs for your package and any other call features or call plan add-ons you may have selected.
