Virgin.net is not a seperate company, nor is Virgin Mobile.

It is purely down to the computer systems used

All the fixed services are on one system (this now includes Virgin.net/Beyond Cable/ADSL) and the mobile is on another

As it has just taken two years at least (and then probably another two before that for telewest) to get everyone on fixed services onto a single system. I don't think they wan't to worry about it for a bit
