Virgin Media<\/a> and O2<\/a> (VMO2) have today published their latest joint (merged) results for Q3 2021, which reveals that their full fibre (FTTP<\/a>) network rollout reached another 67,000 UK premises in the quarter (down from 89K in Q2) and their total fixed broadband customer based hit 5,536,400 (up by +42.3K in Q3 vs +35.7K in Q2).<\/p>\n

The main developments since the previous results include VMO2’s plan to create 400 new jobs (here<\/a>). On top of that their gigabit-capable DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1 network upgrade has now reached 12.8 million UK premises (here<\/a>) and they’re also close to launching a new IPTV streaming product (here<\/a>). In addition, we noted that VMO2 were still in talks with Sky Broadband<\/a>, TalkTalk<\/a> and Vodafone<\/a> about the launch of a new wholesale platform (here<\/a> and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Ofcom<\/a> found that Virgin Media<\/a> had attracted the most complaints for their fixed broadband, pay TV and phone services during Q1 2021 (here<\/a>) and we reported that their HUB 3.0 router was still suffering from a long-running security issue that could be used to \u201csilently unmask<\/em>\u201d the real IP addresses of VPN users (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Since then, the operator has also launched their new HUB 5 router (here<\/a>), conducted a third trial of 2.2Gbps download speeds (here<\/a>), introduced special “VOLT<\/em>” benefits for joint O2<\/a> and Virgin Media<\/a> customers (here<\/a>) and secured a full fibre contract with the West Berkshire Council (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Quarterly UK Customer (Connection) Figures – Q3 2021<\/strong><\/span>
\n5,536,400 Fixed Broadband – (up from 5,494,100<\/span> in Q2)
\n41,638,200 Mobile inc. Wholesale – (up from 40,952,500)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We note that O2<\/a>’s 5G<\/a> network is now live across 210 UK towns and cities, with an ambition to reach 50% of the UK population in 2023. Sadly, VMO2 no longer gives out the full figures for their Pay TV and telephone services, so we can’t compare quarterly change for those (this perhaps indicates a future direction of travel to side-line those products). Otherwise, we’ve posted our usual summary of their Project Lighting network expansion, which has so far reached an additional 2.6 million premises since it began some years ago (c.1.3 million via FTTP<\/a> and the rest as HFC – Hybrid Fibre Coax).<\/p>\n

In case anybody has forgotten, VMO2 are currently upgrading their HFC and FTTP<\/a> broadband network with DOCSIS<\/a> 3.1 technology, which will give all of their customers access to gigabit broadband speeds by the end of 2021. The operator has also committed to completely upgrading their existing HFC network – some 14.3 million premises – with Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP) technology by the end of 2028 (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Project Lightning Rollout Since 2017<\/strong><\/span>
\nQ3 2021 = 67,000 Premises
\nQ2 2021 = 89,000 Premises
\nQ1 2021 = 80,000 Premises (impacted by COVID-19 lockdown)
\nQ4 2020 = 115,000 Premises (some impact from COVID-19)
\nQ3 2020 = 125,000 Premises
\nQ2 2020 = 93,000 Premises (impacted by COVID-19 lockdown)
\nQ1 2020 = 93,000 Premises (some impact from COVID-19)
\nQ4 2019 = 154,000 Premises
\nQ3 2019 = 119,000 Premises
\nQ2 2019 = 130,000 Premises
\nQ1 2019 = 102,000 Premises
\nQ4 2018 = 144,000 Premises
\nQ3 2018 = 109,000 Premises
\nQ2 2018 = 118,000 Premises
\nQ1 2018 = 111,000 Premises (likely impacted by heavy snow)
\nQ4 2017 = 159,000 Premises
\nQ3 2017 = 147,000 Premises
\nQ2 2017 = 127,000 Premises
\nQ1 2017 = 102,000 Premises<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Virgin’s UK network now covers a total of 15,546,300 UK homes passed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We should add that VMO2 has previously spoken of an ambition to invest \u00a310bn<\/strong> over the next 5 years to upgrade to 5G<\/a> mobile and expand their FTTP broadband coverage to a further 7-8 million homes (e.g. rural or semi-rural areas). Sadly, today\u2019s announcement doesn’t provide any update on that, but they are still “actively exploring further expansion opportunities to reach millions more premises, with discussions ongoing with strategic and financial partners<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Lutz Sch\u00fcler, CEO of Virgin Media O2, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are firing on all cylinders as a new company, just 150 days old. We have real commercial momentum with the launch of new converged bundles, sustained network rollout and subscriber gains across fixed and mobile. We remain firmly on-track to achieve our synergy target by mid-2026.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve driven a return to top line growth in Q3, while investing in connectivity, customer service and digital programmes for strong performance over the long term. With the core foundations already in place, we are fired up and focused on our mission to upgrade the UK.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the financial front, VMO2 reported total quarterly revenue of \u00a32,594m (up from \u00a32,542.6m in the previous quarter). Meanwhile, the average speed across the company’s broadband base was 202Mbps at the end of Q3. Otherwise, it looks like the wait for VM to launch a wholesale solution goes on, as does the wait for any news on their proposed FTTP expansion to cover millions of new premises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
