Hmmm.
You may want to tell the millions of subscribers receiving their voice service via cable (without a twisted pair attached to it) and fibre optics that their VoIP services are unreliable.
VM are just sweating their telco network. They are still using legacy switches throughout instead of migrating to an IP network as BT have been. I guess they don't see the business case at this time.
This said there is no reason whatsoever why they cannot retire virtually all of the current telco network. They could do some extremely cool stuff if they did, some friends in Canada have caller ID flash up on their TV when a call comes in for example.
