10 million homes across the UK can now make use of Virgin Media’s fastest-ever broadband.
Virgin Media O2 has expanded its gigabit network across the UK, with the latest switch-on adding 1.7 million homes in Blackpool, Cambridge, Leicester, Nottingham, Oxford, Swindon and more. The network provider is spearheading the charge with gigabit speeds available on two-thirds of its national network – and plans for the entire footprint of 15.5 million homes to be upgraded by the end of the year. Gigabit broadband is 17 times faster than the UK average broadband speed.
Lutz Schüler, CEO at Virgin Media O2, said: “We’re rapidly expanding our gigabit broadband network and more than 10 million homes across the UK can now access these next-generation speeds.
“As the UK’s largest gigabit provider today, committed to connecting our entire network to these speeds by the end of the year, our investment is helping the UK meet its broadband targets and providing consumers with connectivity fit for the future.”
