Description

Virgin Media O2, operating as Virgin Mobile in the United Kingdom (Europe), is a major mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). It leverages the network infrastructure of O2, offering competitive mobile services to customers across the country. Identified internationally by its Mobile Country Code (MCC) of 234, indicating the United Kingdom, and the Mobile Network Code (MNC) of 38, Virgin Mobile provides a wide range of plans and services, including 4G and 5G connectivity in many areas. As an MVNO, Virgin Mobile distinguishes itself through its bundled offerings with Virgin Media's cable and broadband services, often providing discounts and unique perks to shared customers, setting it apart from networks like Vodafone, EE and Three who operate and own their network infrastructure.

Originally launched independently, Virgin Mobile UK's history has seen several transformations, including its acquisition by Virgin Media, and subsequent merger into Virgin Media O2. This evolution allows it to compete effectively in a saturated UK mobile market, with a focus on customer value, flexible data plans and seamless integration with Virgin Media's entertainment and broadband offerings. Notably, Virgin Mobile's strong brand recognition and focus on customer satisfaction have allowed it to maintain a significant market share, appealing to a broad demographic across the UK. Its network relies on O2’s infrastructure providing coverage comparable to other leading networks in the UK like EE, Vodafone and Three.
