“As a pacesetter in the market, Virgin Mobile continues to offer great valued products and we are proud our customers are the most satisfied of all network providers.
“The launch of 4G is another step in delivering on our commitment to a fair go for all.”
Virgin’s Mobile Broadband will be getting the 4G treatment later this year.
