Re: BT to buy EE - impact on VMobile?

You may have misunderstood the point he was making.

Virgin Media provide backhaul capacity (fibre lines) for EE. It's nothing to do with Virgin Mobile. And he was saying that BT bid against VM and lost the contract to provide that backhaul capacity to EE. But if BT take over EE, BT may look at that backhaul contract in "unfavourable" terms and may wish to ditch VM.
