BT<\/a> has launched a High Court case against Virgin Media<\/a> (VMO2), which it accuses of having migrated customers away from their EE<\/a> based Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) platform (Virgin Mobile) before an agreement had been concluded. The broadband ISP and mobile giant is reportedly seeking \u00a324.6m in compensation.<\/p>\n

Just for context. At the end of 2019 Virgin Media<\/a> signed a 5-year deal with Vodafone<\/a> to run their MVNO platform, which effectively ended their long-running supplier deal with EE<\/a> (here<\/a>). Under the plan, Virgin Mobile\u2019s services – back then reflecting c.3 million customers<\/strong> – would start to transition to Vodafone<\/a>\u2019s platform from the end of 2021, although some 5G<\/a> (mobile broadband) services were introduced before that.<\/p>\n

Since then, both Virgin Media<\/a> and O2<\/a> have merged into VMO2, with the new joint company having already given Vodafone<\/a> notice to cancel the new MVNO agreement – naturally, they’d now want to be able to fully harness O2<\/a>’s platform. But that’s another story and we’re today focused on the prior MVNO agreement to use EE<\/a>’s national mobile network.<\/p>\n

According to Broadband TV News<\/a>, BT<\/a> is accusing VMO2 of having breached the terms of their MVNO agreement by allowing non-5G<\/a> customers (i.e. 4G<\/a> and older users) to be migrated away from EE’s network and on to O2<\/a> and Vodafone based platforms before its contract had formally expired. BT<\/a> says it warned Virgin about this on multiple occasions, but the operator allegedly refused to carry out any checks.<\/p>\n

A BT Spokesperson said: <\/strong><\/p>\n

“BT is taking legal action against Virgin Media with respect to a breach of an MVNO agreement Virgin Media had with EE. It would be inappropriate to comment further due to the ongoing legal proceedings.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, VMO2 contends that they’ve “always complied with the terms of our former mobile agreement with BT<\/em>“, with the operator planning to “robustly defend<\/em>” themselves. The case could have implications for other MVNO agreements in the future, where operators might sometimes use different methods to start migrating users ahead of time and without prior agreement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
