Virgin and TalkTalk discuss deal over broadband sharing
Virgin Media and TalkTalk are working on a deal to share the cost of new ultrafast broadband networks and dial up the pressure on BT.
The two operators are understood to be discussing sharing so-called passive infrastructure. It would mean TalkTalk could lay fibre optics in Virgin Media’s underground ducts and vice versa.
TalkTalk is trying to transform itself from a reseller of BT broadband lines to a network owner in its own right via a £1.5bn deal with M&G.
They aim to connect three million homes with faster, more reliable lines but have not yet finalised their terms.
