Network data from broadband ISP Virgin Media has revealed that Tuesday is the UK’s new “big night in“, with evening peak (between 8-10pm) internet traffic pushing higher than on any other day of the week – usually driven by online video gaming (mostly big update/patch downloads) and TV sports events (streaming).

A number of mobile operators, including O2 and EE, have already set out tentative plans for phasing-out existing 2G mobile services.

Telecoms giant BT migrated 300,000 UK business customers away from legacy phone lines and on to digital broadband and phone solutions in 2024.
