Sports enthusiasts can snap up hundreds of pounds off their summer getaway in a flash sale that's drawing to a close this week. The offer comes courtesy of Virgin Media, which is enticing customers to ditch rivals such as Sky and BT with £300 travel vouchers redeemable at Trip.com.
The saving can be put towards a package holiday and spent on flights, hotels or flight and hotel bundles, but time is running out to claim the deal. It is exclusively available to those signing up to Virgin's Max Volt bundle before midnight on Wednesday, May 13.
Those taking up the offer will enjoy comprehensive Sky Sports coverage of the crucial Premier League fixtures at this business end of the season, plus hundreds more matches next season across the top flight, EFL, Carabao Cup, WSL and beyond. Every Formula 1 race weekend is also included, alongside darts, golf, tennis and rugby.
Beyond the sport, the Max Volt bundle boasts more than 230 TV channels including Sky Cinema, a complimentary Netflix subscription and ultra-fast 1,130Mbps fibre broadband. The package also incorporates an unlimited O2 SIM card, all for £78.99 per month.
Virgin levies no setup fee, with customers receiving their £300 Trip.com gift card provided they keep their package for more than 55 days. With an O2 SIM included, subscribers can take full advantage of unlimited data, minutes and texts while roaming across 75 destinations at no extra charge,.

Max Volt customers can also unlock a number of 'Volt' perks when adding an O2 pay monthly plan to their package, including double mobile data on eligible O2 mobile plans and a WiFi guarantee. The latter promises minimum download speeds of 30Mbps or £100 credit back.
There's a catch to the offer though, as monthly prices for the 24-month Max Volt contract will increase to £85.49 from April 2027 and £91.99 from April 2028. Meanwhile, Sky is also offering free extras, with customers signing up for its £44 Ultimate TV and Sky Sports bundle now receiving subscriptions to Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, discovery+ and Hayu at no extra cost.
Sky claims this is worth around £240 per year and includes 135 TV channels plus nine from Sky Sports. . It's worth noting neither Virgin nor Sky will broadcast some of this year's hotly-anticipated heavyweight fights, with the likes of Usyk vs Rico (May 23) and Anthony Joshua vs Kristian Prenga (July 25) airing exclusively on DAZN.

As for Virgin Media, the brand has received considerable acclaim from numerous customers on Trustpilot, one of which says: "Great service by very professional, knowledgeable and courteous staff. Easy install as previous Virgin media equipment still in place. Really good wi-fi signal and obviously good support available if needed."
Another says: "Great, simple and easy. The engineer was friendly and installed the cable without fuss. My internet has gone from a patchy 12Mb to a solid 500Mb for the same price, plus Netflix." One reviewer had a less smooth experience but still commended Virgin's customer service, writing: "Bad start but good customer service response. The onboarding process was terrible, especially the account number and area reference number that I never received, but the customer service saved the day."
Another five-star reviewer added: "Seamless switch over from Sky. Professional engineers who turned up on time, polite and work completed quickly and efficiently. Explained how to use the new media well."
