Since its launch in November 1999, Virgin Mobile has scored a number of firsts, including being the first operator to scrap peak rate calls, introduce a daily discounting tariff and to provide bonus airtime to reward heavy users. Virgin Mobile launched "The Flextariff" which is a clever tariff where the more you use your mobile, the cheaper it gets.

Virgin Xtras - Review

One of the best things with having a Virgin mobile is the Xtras options. With Xtras you can pick and choose the games and ringtones you can play on your mobile such as Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, Subbuteo, Trivial Pursuit, UEFA Champions League, Zobmondo, Ringtones and Graphics, Horoscopes, Lotto, Competitions and Trivia. Virgin offers excellent value for money and customer service, but in London the signal quality can vary enormously within the same room, and calls are often lost midcall, or you can hear the caller but they can't hear you and vice-versa. But because Virgin are a new network I think I will stick with them and hopefully the signal quality will improve over time.

The main things that have attracted people to Virgin Mobile is that Virgin dont charge line rental, gives free airtime as a bonus and there is no contract to sign with virgin, even if you pay monthly. Because Virgin Mobile started these things and the other mobile networks followed means some people trust Virgin to give the best deals and be more trustworthy than other networks.
