Full fibre broadband means fibre optic cables run the whole way to your Birmingham home – not just to the street. That means much faster speeds and a more stable connection, even when the whole house is online. Virgin Media full-fibre comes with speeds up to 2Gbps, and clever WiFi tech that helps keep every room connected – no more dead zones.

Our full fibre rollout in Birmingham is part of our goal to deliver high-speed full fibre (FTTP) connections across the UK. We’ve already reached a total of two million premises passed and ready for service, and we're continuously expanding and improving our network to give you the latest and greatest broadband technology.

This comes as Virgin Media O2 continues to lead Britain’s gigabit charge with speeds of 1,000Mbps+ available across our entire network. We invest £2 billion a year in our networks and services and are also in the process of upgrading our entire fixed network to full-fibre technology over the coming years.

It means loads more homes across Birmingham can get even faster broadband, bigger entertainment options, and new Virgin Media services at home! If you live in one of the areas where we’ve expanded our network, you get access our next-gen gigabit speeds, plus all the benefits you’re used to, like:

Along with our ultrafast broadband network, Virgin Media O2’s mobile network covers 99% of the nation’s population with 4G, and we’re always rolling out 5G services to bring the latest mobile connectivity to more parts of the country.

O2 is the only mobile network operator not to have reintroduced roaming fees in Europe and customers can save week-in week-out through Priority – our reward scheme which gives exclusive access to offers, prize draws, competitions, and presale tickets.
