An offer that doesn't expire means it has no end date (i.e will continue after the 12 months minimum term has ended), but is not and will not be guaranteed to go on indefinately or at the same price

Any Virgin Media standard bundle (i.e the 3 for £30) is an offer than does not expire, as anyone on a VM standard bundle from Feb 2007 is still on it now.

Other offers like the 3 for £30 with XL tv has a part of the offer that does expire as the price rises after 12 months. However, again the core bundle does not expire and continues

ntl discounts from 4 years ago are still around now. I would call those offers that don't expire

Oh dear it looks like that bullet just ricocheted and hit your foot hokkers
