The customers are low priority, thats why they are in trouble.
and it's got nothing to do with Altnets selling their services as a loss leader, massively undercutting VMO2.

However, this is a bit of theatre I think.

This is VMO2 putting pressure on the CMA to greenlight the netomnia deal. The Openreach story which see a reduction in competition, the opposite of what the CMA want to achieve. Now massive job cuts because the netomnia deal would have seen a cash injection into VMO2 and LG & Telefonica could probably use some accountancy slight of hand to transfer some the debt to Nexfibre. 4000 job losses not a good headline for the government, who might be inclined to lean on the CMA, as seen as they intervened in regards to Talk Talk.
