VMO2 Confirm migration from 2G in 2025
Options
Yesterday Virgin Media O2 confirmed that it will switch of 3G in 2025 and will begin migrating customers away from 2G.
It will leave a reduced 2G service in place for some years for emergency use and smart meters/devices.
About 1% of O2 customers use 2G. Some of these will just need a new SIM but others will need a new phone.
