Virgin Media GTA 6 contest

Virgin Media Ireland will pay one person €100 an hour to play GTA 6 for eight hours, €800 in total, plus the cost of the game. The catch: it is a competition open only to adults living in the Republic of Ireland, there is one winner, the €800 comes as a One4all gift card, and the winner must post a review tagged #Ad. As of October 29, 2026, applications close on November 15, 2026.

The official terms date the competition from October 26, 2026, and the first press reports, from Dexerto and Extra.ie, followed on October 27 and 28. GTA6Wire has no relationship with Virgin Media.

Who can enter#

• You must be 18 or over and a resident of the Republic of Ireland.
• You need an Instagram or TikTok account; the contest page says it must be a public profile.
• You do not need to be a Virgin Media customer.
• Virgin Media employees, contractors, partners and their immediate families cannot enter, and there is one prize per household.

How to apply#

Fill in the form on the contest page: name, email, phone, your Instagram or TikTok handle, and 100 to 200 words on why you want the job. You also tick a box accepting the review rules below.

The key terms#

• Closing date: November 15, 2026, inclusive. No cut-off hour or time zone is given.
• How the winner is picked: clause 11 of the terms says "at random from valid entries", although the page asks you to "make your case". The terms govern.
• Contact: the terms say by email by November 16, 2026; the contest page says within 7 days of closing.
• The prize: a €99.99 digital gift card to buy the game, and an €800 One4all digital gift card. That is about $891 at the October 27, 2026 exchange rate cited by Dexerto. There is no cash alternative, and any taxes fall on the winner.
• Edition and platform: Virgin Media confirms the version based on the winner's platform. GameSpot reports it is the Ultimate Edition; the terms do not name an edition, and no console is included.
• The review: after eight hours of play, the winner sends Virgin Media an honest video review for approval (up to three business days), then posts it between November 20 and 26, 2026, tagging Virgin Media Ireland and showing #Ad. It need not be positive, and it cannot use gameplay footage, screenshots, audio or Rockstar artwork. The €800 card is issued only after it is published.

The timeline assumes the November 19 launch. The terms do not say what happens if the date moves, though Virgin Media reserves the right to change or cancel the competition.
