Free wireless router being sent out.

Ok so 2weeks a go i rang up Vm saying i would like either a wireless connection installed or another bb line installed. I was told i would have to pay 30pound for the wireless and 75 for a new cable. So rang again told Vm i had Xl on BB, telephone, a v+ box with Xl on it and Xl on another two tv boxes, And because i have Xl on so many packages i get wireless sent out for free!! BARGIN!!

Anyone had this from Vm? Also is there any catch on this wireless im being sent will it be S**t? lol

also sorry if in the wrong area.

You just need to phone them and ask for a wireless router to be sent. It's free for XL subscribers, tho I THINK you have to pay p&p (Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£7.50) for it.

I ordered one at the end of April. Was told there'd be a delay as they were out of stock. After 2 weeks I phoned to find out where it was. Still a delay they said. So I got impatient and went and bought one myself. I had lots of probs with it. Kept having to reset it etc. So last Monday (16th) I phoned Virgin again to find out where my order was. Errrr.....We'll send one out today!!! lol. It arrived 2 days later and has been running sweet!!! It's a Netgear one, so a good reputation!!

I made sure that there was no hidden charges and was told it would be free, and i would get it between 1-3 working days. Just hope and see

The wireless router is also free for new L Broadband customers too I believe.
