Stream from Virgin Media / Available On Streaming Rental or Purchase

Exclusive to Virgin broadband customers, Stream from Virgin Media is a seamless way to watch on-demand streaming apps and live Freeview channels all in one place. You won’t need a satellite or aerial for this, but you will have to install a puck-like device on your TV’s HDMI port, which requires a £35 one-time activation fee. Apart from your broadband and streaming services bills, you won’t be charged for any ongoing costs after that fee.

What’s interesting about Stream is that it makes it easier to pick and choose which apps you want on your homepage, so you’re sure to only see and pay for the content that you like. Additionally, you get 10% credit back on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming subscriptions you add through Stream. 

And when it comes to content, you have your pick among major broadcast channels and on-demand streaming services. You can also add premium channels like Sky Cinema, Sky Sports, BT Sport, and the Essential Entertainment Package for an extra fee, cancellable each month.
