Default home page in mobile browsers

Hi all,

Could someone confirm that Virgin defaults your mobile browser to "mobilebrowser.bwanet.ca/hpr/" which then redirects to "vmobile.mobi"? I can't seem to find much information on this, but the connection is secure and the certificate is registered to Bell Canada, so I'm relatively sure that this is legit but looking for confirmation.

The website defaults to essentially a Google site with a Virgin logo so I'm guessing they are using this to drive ad revenue. Just want to ensure I haven't been hacked..

Thanks!

Hey there @seekandconfirm

Welcome to the community and interesting question.

The community being a peer to peer assistance channel, we wouldn't have access to that level of technical information. However, I tested it on my personal phone and the browsers home page URL matches the one you've mentioned above. 

Let the community know if you have more questions.
