Virgin Media - Ultra high speed broadband, television, landline phones, and mobile devices

Virgin Media O2 was launched on June 1, 2021, combining the UK's largest and most reliable mobile network with a broadband network that offers the fastest widely available broadband speeds.

Virgin Media O2 is a customer-centric organization that brings together a range of connectivity services in one place, with a clear mission: to upgrade the UK.

Virgin Media

Virgin Media O2 is a corporate brand of a 50:50 joint venture between Liberty Global and Telef ó nica SA, and is one of the largest companies in the UK.

There are 48 million broadband, mobile, television, and home phone connections in the UK. Our own fixed network currently covers 15.6 million locations, while our mobile network covers 99% of the 4G population nationwide and over 300 towns with 5G services.

Virgin Media O2 is a major investor in the UK. We have approximately 18000 employees, over 425 retail stores, and have committed to investing at least £ 10 billion over the next five years. In order to bring new opportunities to the people of the whole country, we have also created 1000 apprenticeship positions.

As connectivity powers the country during the pandemic and in the future, Virgin Media O2 will bring together next-generation gigabit broadband and 5G services, while expanding its network coverage nationwide. This includes providing gigabit broadband speeds throughout our entire network coverage by the end of 2021, and we plan to upgrade our fixed network to full fiber to the premises by 2028.

With the rapid progress of integration work, Virgin Media and O2 will continue to provide their respective products to customers and soon launch new joint services.

We provide award-winning broadband and WiFi connections for families, as well as internet entertainment services. This will provide live TV, thousands of hours of on-demand programs, and a wide selection of applications to customers through set-top boxes, tablets, and smartphones.

We also offer 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G mobile services. We are the preferred network for mobile virtual network operators Giffgaff, Sky Mobile, and Lycamobile, and manage Tesco Mobile's 50:50 joint venture with Tesco.

Virgin Media O2 Business plays a leading role in supporting the public sector and businesses of all sizes. This includes various hosted connectivity services and flexible work capabilities, security, data insights, 5G dedicated networks and cloud solutions, as well as wholesale services provided to other operators and partners.

Sustainable development and responsible enterprises

Virgin Media O2 is committed to harnessing the power of connectivity to power communities across the UK, take action to narrow the digital divide, and help build an inclusive, resilient, and low-carbon economy. Our goal is to achieve net zero carbon operation (Scope 1 and 2) by the end of 2025.
