Vodafone Group PLC (VOD.LN) said Wednesday that it has agreed to
a five-year deal to supply wholesale mobile network services,
including 5G, to Liberty Global PLC's (LBTYA) Virgin Media.
The agreement, which will run from 2021 until 2026, will give
Virgin Media full access to Vodafone's current services and future
technologies such as its 5G network, FTSE 100-listed Vodafone
said.
Virgin Media's current mobile virtual network operator agreement
with BT Group PLC (BT.A.LN) has been in place since 2017 and will
come to an end in 2021, Vodafone said. Virgin Mobile's 5G services
are expected to launch on the Vodafone network before the
transition takes place.
