Virgin uses T-Mobile's network.

No, Virgin just pay T-Mobile so virgin can use in that location transmiters, simply like Tesco, is using o2.
Cheaper for networks to exercise this, as they dont have to pay for all the new transmitters, and stuff.
Virgin and T-mobile had a arguement a little while back, and virgin was thinking of using a different network to supply the service, but t-mob, and virgin sorted this, and accept some sort of 10yr bargain

Virgin and T-Mobile are non the same visitor. Virgin, if I remember rightly, is a visitor in it's own right with many subsidiaries. T-Mobile's parent visitor is Deutsche Telekom.

T-Mobile and Virgin are not the aforementioned Company.
Virgin at one fourth dimension was a l:50 joint venture.
Merely now Virgin Mobile is 100% owned by Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Group and is the UK's first mobile virtual operator, it uses T-Mobile's network.
It just 'rents' space on the T-Mobile network, for desire of improve words, like Sky rent space off Astra.

JVC invented the VHS VCR.
Saying T-Mobile and Virgin are the same company, is like saying all your VCRs are made past JVC.

Right this is a chip complicated ....
There are 2 types of mobile operator
Concrete Operators (v in the Great britain)
MMO2
Vodafone
T Mobile
Orangish
and Three
and Virtual operators examples
Tesco
Sainsbury
Virgin
BT Mobile
The difference is that the Physical operators actually own the network infrastructure. The Virtual operators don't they buy chapters on other networks in bulk. Virgin and BT Mobile both do this using T-Mobile's network.
Hope that helps.

Sorry to have acquired any confusion, I was cheekily remarking at the particular of 'Services' that Alex Hudson has - not that it's likewise much y'all understand...
He or she has 3 VCRs. 
Virgin & T-Mobile, the aforementioned company? I see this question asked occasionally and it had been largely answered, and so I had no real comment to brand.

Do you actually get a different network or exercise you only become an o2 sim card with the phones?
0
Whenever you buy a phone, on pay as you get or pay monthly, y'all will be continued to the service. The SIM card will exist in the phone.
Many phones are locked to the network. Y'all tin can't use other SIM cards on different networks. Phone operators charge to unlock your telephone just it is best to go to a local phone store who deals with SIM unlocks commonly priced from a fiver.

Aye you can put a Virgin SIM in a T-Mobile(One2One) phone, simply tin can non put a T-Mobile SIM in a Virgin phone.
I have non tried putting a T-Mobile SIM in a Virgin phone myself, but have been told on many occasions it can't be done, unless unlocked.
But I have put a Virgin SIM into a T-Mobile phone, and so have a few of my friends and family and they have all worked fine.

I have always found I could put sim cards from whatever network into a virgin phone... or maybe thats just me being lucky

I know the Carphone Warehouse were selling some Virgin Mobiles that were not locked, don't know when from and if they yet are.

Did yous by any chance purchase your telephone from The Carphone Warehouse? as their phones are always unlocked every bit they just give you a phone and they give you a joining pack with it for what network you lot want it on.
