Technology has evolved and changed our lives to the extent that we now rely on three services to get us through every day: broadband, landline and television. We need broadband so we can find out what's going on in the news and perform all manners of tasks, like banking and shopping. We need landline so we can always be contacted and contact others regardless of mobile signal, and we need television so we can relax and stop thinking at the end of the day.

Most of the telecommunications companies operating today offer all of these services to their customers, but they all have different deals and prices that make it difficult to find the one that's most suitable for you. However, because of the well-known all-round quality of all of Virgin Media's services, many people end up choosing it as their provider.

The jewel in the crown of the company's services is Virgin Media broadband. When anything gets voted as the best by the humourless drones at Ofcom then it must be good, and the company's broadband services have been voted the best in terms of speed for the past couple of years. All of its broadband is run through ...
... fibre-optic networks, rather than the old copper wire systems. This means that the information is conducted far more quickly along the line than it used to be, so everything you need to do on the internet can be accomplished in minutes and seconds rather than hours and days.

Customers can get broadband with monthly data limits of up to 30Mb, 60Mb and 100Mb – the bigger the limit, the faster the speeds, but even the 30Mb deal is four times faster than the UK average. As a general rule, consider how many people will be using the internet at one time and how heavily they'll be using it – this, as well as the prices of the different deals, should help you decide which one to get.

In addition, customers can sign up to Virgin Media TV. Although Sky has had a stranglehold on digital TV in Britain pretty much since it was founded in the early 1990s, Virgin offers more or less the same services, minus a few channels like Sky Atlantic. Sports fans can access Sky Sports and ESPN, film fans can get Sky Movies and Film 4 and those who like to watch TV but never seem to be able to catch it when it's on can get a TiVo box exclusively from the company when they sign up.

There are different packages available which are suitable for any television fan, and the company is currently running a deal where new customers can get 6 months of TV at half price.

Whichever communications service you need or whether you want to bundle them up and have them all, Virgin is one of the best companies to opt for – you'll never be out of touch with anyone or anything again.
