O2 is announcing a significant upgrade to its mobile network in Wolverhampton, after completing work to boost signal and services in 850 postcodes since the beginning of the year. The operator’s substantial investment to upgrade connectivity in Wolverhampton is already providing residents and businesses with access to faster and more reliable mobile services.
The enhanced 4G and 5G network capacity means that customers in Wolverhampton are now benefitting from improved mobile connectivity, making it easier to access essential online services, work remotely, stream content on the go or simply stay connected with friends and family.
These upgrades are part of Virgin Media O2’s broader network upgrade strategy. The operator is investing £2 million every single day to future-proof its mobile network and meet the increasing demands of customers for seamless connectivity. This comes against a backdrop of rising demand, with the amount of mobile data consumed by O2 customers increasing 26% in 2023.
