Vodafone and Virgin Media O2 announce new network-sharing deal

Vodafone and Virgin Media O2 have agreed to extend their existing mobile network-sharing agreement, and will extend it further should Vodafone’s proposed merger with Three UK go ahead.

A final decision on the proposed merger between Vodafone and Three is currently being considered by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).

Vodafone and Virgin Media O2 said the core of the deal was that they had agreed to extend their existing network-sharing arrangement of more than a decade, saying it helped bolster mobile coverage for customers across the country.
