Virgin Media
Virgin Media is a British company that started in 2007. They offer telephone, TV, and internet services in the United Kingdom. Their main office is in Reading, England. Virgin Media is part of a partnership called Virgin Media O2, which is jointly owned by two big companies, Liberty Global and Telefonica.
Virgin Media has its own high-speed cable network in the UK. This network connects many homes and businesses to the internet and TV. However, the cable doesn't go directly to people's homes in most places. Instead, it stops at a box on the street, and from there, it goes to people's houses.
As of December 2012, Virgin Media had about 4.8 million customers who use their cable services. This includes around 3.79 million people who have Virgin TV, 4.2 million with Virgin internet, and 4.1 million with their fixed-line phone service. They also had about 3 million customers using their mobile phones.
Virgin Media is one of the main companies in the UK that provides cable services, except on the Isle of Wight. They compete with other big companies like Sky, BT, TalkTalk, EE, Vodafone, and Three in providing broadband internet and mobile services.
