If you look at the 'irrelevant' thread you'll see that roaming was recently switched on for MVNOs.”
The term "Virgin Orange Share" was just that, a search.
The situation, prior to the enabling of the access to the orange half of the EE network, which has not yet happened is that VM coverage is worsening as EE network duplication.
This brought about through the merger of the two MNO's means where TM cells have been removed there are holes in the VM coverage which are no there to subscribers of TM.
Roaming will only be temporary as the EE network will eventually become seamless and fully integrated.
I fully understand that.
What is frustrating is the removal of VM coverage where TM site have been removed before full EE access has been enabled.
Thank you to all who have pointed out that the temporary roaming will happen in the next few weeks.
Now if the mods would kindly lock or delete this thread maybe those who jumped down my throat for not immediately being able to find an existing thread of 16 pages which only had 7 references to "Virgin" in its entirety can go back to being smugly satisfied.
I remember the time when DS forums were helpful and friendly with little of the "did you not read post XXX of a completely different subject" brigade.
