How much a Virgin Plus postpaid plan really costs

Virgin Plus postpaid plans cost CA$19 to CA$55 per month for one line, including the CA$10 Autopay discount where applicable. Taxes and device payments extra.

Number of lines	Total monthly cost (CAD)
1 line	$19-55
2 lines	$38-110
3 lines	$57-165
4 lines	$76-220

Ranges exclude additional-line discounts. Lower per-line prices may be available depending on your plan and location; contact Virgin Plus to confirm eligibility and your total monthly cost.

Roaming can also add to your monthly bill. The five Canada-only plans do not include international roaming, while the 60 GB Canada-US-Mexico plan includes data, calls, and texts in the US and Mexico.

Outside your plan’s included destinations, Roam Sweet Roam costs CA$13/day in the US or CA$16/day internationally. For example, seven days of use in Spain adds CA$112 to your regular bill before taxes.

Virgin Plus also offers Travel Passes, with 3, 7, 14, or 30 days of coverage, depending on the region. A 14-day Europe pass costs CA$75. Both options use your existing plan’s data allowance.

Keep in mind that Roam Sweet Roam is intended for temporary trips and does not allow permanent or semipermanent roaming.

Your destination and trip length determine which Virgin Plus international roaming option suits you best.

Another option to consider is Holafly Plans, especially if you travel frequently or spend longer periods abroad. One recurring subscription covers your travel data, so you don’t need to buy a new roaming pass for each trip.

Beyond your monthly plan price, these charges can increase your Virgin Plus bill:

Additional charge	Cost
Without Autopay	CA$10/month extra per line
Taxes and provincial 911 fees	Added where applicable; amounts depend on your location
Roam Sweet Roam	CA$13/day in the US or CA$16/day internationally, outside your plan’s included coverage
Travel Passes	CA$30-CA$120 depending on destination and duration’
