Seeing as BT own Openreach and TalkTalks network is mostly Openreach the only thing BT actually gains is an on paper business and access to customers on altnets which I guess is a big plus for them

TalkTalk routes a lot of there services through VM and Vodafone not just Openreach so expect some disruption as they move away for VM and Vodafone and just use the Openreach network.

What do Vodafone own other than a 5G network? I did say they use altnets but I only knew they used Cityfibre and Hyperoptic.
My Voda BB is through Openreach my 5G BB through them indirectly using Lebara
