Martin Lewis has issued important advice to Virgin Media customers on what they can do to keep their bills down ahead of price hikes in the spring.
The MoneySavingExpert founder shared the news as the provider confirmed that bills will increase by 13.8% on average in April, a move which will affect most customers with broadband, TV or fixed-line phone packages with Virgin. Other providers including BT, EE, TalkTalk, Three and Plusnet have announced similar measures, with the cost of mobile and broadband set to shoot up by as much as 14.4% in the coming months.
However, Virgin customers don't have their hands tied when it comes to these changes. Martin wrote on Twitter: "Virgin Media customer? It's announced it is putting up most prices by an average of 14% this spring, but watch out for the letter, as it means you can leave penalty free or haggle."
