I can only assume this to be a customer grab. Talk Talk doesn’t have any infrastructure of interest to VMO2? They don’t have their own fibre network. They sold their FTTH operation “Fibrenation” to City Fibre a couple of years ago.

It’s not like you buy the customer base, transfer them onto your network and shut down the TT network, making savings that way. The OR and VM networks are not cross compatible by tech or footprint.

VM don’t want to be, and are not, an OpenReach FTTC reseller, they binned their own plans for that when LG bought them.

Interesting, look forward to seeing how it develops.
