What makes full-fibre broadband different?

Full fibre broadband means fibre optic cables run the whole way to your Coventry home – not just to the street. From Foleshill to Finham, Bell Green to Binley, and everywhere in between, that means you can get much faster speeds and a more stable connection at home, even when the whole house is online. Virgin Media full-fibre comes with speeds up to 2Gbps, which is fast enough for you broadband to handle everything you throw at it.

Our latest rollout in Coventry is part of our goal to deliver high speed full fibre (FTTP) connections to 5 million homes across the UK by 2026. 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 1000Mbps+ 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.
