Hi Jason,

Thanks for your quick reply. However I can only see "here we go" but there is no link.
I tried my luck to type "studentoffer" after your website... then bingo!
Is this the correct link? www.upc.ie/studentoffer

pls confirm
Thanks

It's the boardsoffer link in his signature.
I think you just mention it when they call you that you're a student too.

wait for Jason to confirm though.

Virgin Media: Jason · 09-10-2010 10:32AM

Correct

To order and get the boards bargain alert €50 voucher you have got to order via this link www.upc.ie/boardsoffer

Once you do that my team will call you and if you want the student offer also, just mention it to them then. (for 4 months free next summer in May, June, July & August.) Enjoy

Regards

Jason

Hi kamhaysin

Home phone or HD are not part of the student offer, sorry.

The student offer allows you to subscribe to any Digital TV (with digital plus) and broadband (8, 15 or 30mb) and if you do this before November 14th you will get the summer months free of charge.

Hi Carpenter

The UPC HD box that we ship now is 3D ready. Currently there is very little commercial content available in 3D. Once that content is made available to us we may look at introducing it if there is a demand from our customers.

Can I get the 3d tv with upc

Markx · 09-10-2010 03:56PM

Hi Jason, I got UPC installed today (HD ESPN pack). I thought the Sky Sports 2 month free offer for new TV customers would mean I would have Sky Sports, but not so. Can I just call customer service for them to switch it on?
Thanks,
Mark

JohnK · 09-10-2010 04:13PM

Whats the situation if you get UPC installed then move before the 12 month contract has completed? Can you just get it switched over to the new address or do you have to cancel the initial contract, and presumably pay the cancellation fee, and then on top of that get a new contract from scratch for the new address?

Virgin Media: Jason · 09-10-2010 04:58PM

Hi Markx

The free sky sports offer ended on October 1st. When did you order it? Did you actually subscribe to sky sports? If not and you ordered your Select extra pack before October 1st you would not automatically get sky sports free for 2 months, it is a subscription. PM me your account number and I can check for you.

Please advise

Thanks

Hi Johnk

We have a dedicated house move team in Limerick, you just call 1908, tell them you are moving, give them your new address and if the same service are available at your new address they will just transfer your account there free of charge. o hassle at all.

Hi Jason,

I was wondering if you could look into my account re the 50 euro voucher for the carphone warehouse. I signed up through the offer almost 3 months ago and still have no voucher.

I asked the carphone warehouse directly and they said they knew nothing about it.

I'll pm you with my address,and ac no, but I'd like if you replied here so people see if you do actually get vouchers.

Frustrated,
Corglass

dermatrov · 10-10-2010 12:45AM

It is ok, I got voucher, my friend and family friends get voucher. Did you contact upc it is thier offer? why did you wait 3 months to say anything? you should call them to ask

Lots of people here say they get the voucher

can you get multi room with the student offer?

Virgin Media: Jason · 11-10-2010 10:40AM

Hi Chatbox

You can indeed, however, Multiroom is not covered in the last 4 months free of charge so you will need to either downgrade your service at that stage to remove multiroom (€15 downgrade charge) or pay the €5 for multiroom on its own for the last 4 months.

spooky donkey · 11-10-2010 01:04PM

Im sure this has been asked before but im not reading a 30 page thread. How does this compare to the offer of 250 voucher for Dixons, I just saw a poster in their window the other day so im not sure of the Ts and Cs....

Just I hear my are just went live for UPC BB so im planing on switching over real soon.

Virgin Media: Jason · 11-10-2010 03:07PM

Hi Spooky Donkey

If you are not a UPC customer, and sign up to any of our current Triple play bundles (from just €60 p/m) in any PC World, Currys, D.I.D Electrical or Carphone Warehouse store, then once installed, you will be sent a voucher worth €250 for that store to spend, you will also be charged €30 activation fee per box installed. (If you are a UPC TV customer and sign up to a triple play bundle you will get a €125 voucher)

With the boards offer we will give you a €50 voucher and free activation, which saves you €30 per box installed.

To get the retail offer, you also need to sign up to a triple play bundle, with this boards offer you can just sign up for 1 new product to get the voucher.

It is really up to you to decide which offer works best for you.

Both are great bargains.

Retail offer: http://www.upc.ie/retailoffer/

Boards: www.upc.ie/boardsoffer

I hope that helps

Regards

Jason

Hi Jason,

I signed up and was connected in August and am still waiting on the voucher from Woodies.

Thanks

Virgin Media: Jason · 11-10-2010 03:20PM

Hi pelemcg

Have you contacted my support team and reported it? Woodies are normally brilliant about sending them out within the 30 days. Some get lost but they can track them and cancel the originals and reissue once we are told about them. Can you call my team on 1890940635 and they will chase it up for you straight away?

Thanks

Jason

HI jason

Looking to sign up to the fibre ultimate tv broadband and phone, and get the 2 months free sky sports subscription. Just wondering what is the best way to go about this to get the 250 euro voucher.

Virgin Media: Jason · 11-10-2010 04:06PM

Hi plonk

The only way to get that voucher offer is to call into a participating UPC retail partner and order in there. See details here: www.upc.ie/retailoffer.

I have to advise that the Free Sky Sports for 2 months offer expired on September 30th.

Hope that helps

Hi Jason, any sign of UPC broadband coming to Dundalk ?

thanks for that jason. Not sure if i want the 3 way pack or just a 2 way. Need to check out how the phone deal works first.

Virgin Media: Jason · 12-10-2010 02:25PM

No worries Spooky Donkey.

If you want us to talk you through it, just call 1890 940635.
