Matthew Cooper (@Matthew56242945) reported from Carlton on Trent, EnglandVirgin Media fixed the phone issue, a local fault, so I rang Royal Mail to get my money back. The phone went out again during the call. If I was a person with anxiety and depression issues this might be a major problem. Oh wait, I am a person.....

Adam Butler (@AdamSButler65) reported from Southrey, England@MichaelLCrick @TomaszPalmer @RogerMi17980111 @virginmedia And the reality is (sadly) that when someone in your position posts stuff like this, it does carry much more clout than the average person who is being let down by these big companies. Power to you Michael.

Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England@virginmedia not happy #VirginMedia landline forcibly converted to digital line after “fault” broadband outage 1am this morning sets off lifeline phone line warning. The point of having a big red emergency button is when there’s an emergency you press it and it calls for HELP!

Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England@virginmedia Ok Virginmedia, the WiFi extender for which paying for (installed on 27th May 2020) has ceased working, this may or may not be as a result of the issues from the weekend or not, but before the issues started, it worked, afterwards it didn't. How do I get it replaced?

Tim (@Tim_Arnold1977) reported from Carlton on Trent, England@virginmedia Yes. It's odd, it's like I've still got some service but it comes up 'no internet connection' when I go to Google etc.
-
Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England@virginmedia That’s not true that why they now allow calls to other urgent services for priority vulnerable customers such as gas, water electric police and medical urgent but not emergency numbers the trouble is this doesn’t allow calls to hone help and life lines though they should!

Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, EnglandNot a great start to Monday - @virginmedia is down, mobile hotspot not working, and as a freelancer who doesn't get paid when I don't work, losing much needed income while things are ££££ is very irritating 😞

🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported@O2 There’s really no point as nothing ever changes! And when Virgin Media goes down (which happens far too often) I have zero means of communication. The price hike was the last straw really - time to move to another provider.

Susan Chew (@SusanChew5) reported@gloucesterglass @virginmedia They are possibly the worst company ever, still no engineer a week later, and one of us works from home. You will definitely find better, you can't get any worse.

sleuthtimelord (@sleuthtimelord) reported@virginmedia Virgin media lies to its customers who request a hub 5 router., they will state that "its not compatible " or "only for 1gb customers only " this is both a lie even M100 customers have been given Hub 5 routers it is disgusting the lies that customer service tell

ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reportedEveryone's focused on $AMPG's US story. And fair enough, they're expanding fast across America. The only American 64T64R AI-RAN radio, deployed at Telus, a Strategic Partner in the DoD-funded Open6G hub next to $NVDA and $QCOM, and the CEO just said new major carriers may go straight to POs next quarter. The US story alone is plenty. But here's what almost nobody is connecting: it was never going to stop at America. On the last earnings call, CEO Fawad Maqbool pointed somewhere else entirely: "Our success being the largest O-RAN deployment in America is helping us reach out and reach further into Europe and other areas of the world". That's the strategy in one sentence. Win the flagship at home, then use that credibility as a passport into other markets. And it isn't just talk. The groundwork is already there. Receipt 1, the concrete one: AMPG signed a 5-year supplier agreement with Fujitsu Spain back in October 2024, explicitly expanding its reach across Europe, Africa and the Middle East. So when the CEO says "Europe," there's already a signed, multi-year channel underneath the words. Receipt 2 is hiding in plain sight: the United Kingdom. Look at AmpliTech's customer wall and you'll find Digital Catapult. Most people scroll right past it. But Digital Catapult isn't a random logo. It's a UK government-backed innovation organization, funded through Innovate UK and DSIT (the UK's Department for Science, Innovation and Technology). And it runs SONIC Labs, the country's flagship Open RAN testing facility. Here's where AMPG enters. Its 64T64R Massive MIMO radio was tested at the O-RAN Global PlugFest in London, hosted at SONIC Labs, with HTC's G-REIGN providing the DU/CU stack and AmpliTech bringing the radio. The only American radio in the room, validated inside a UK government-funded laboratory. Now the part that makes it interesting. Who advises SONIC Labs? All four of Britain's major operators: EE/BT, Three, Virgin Media O2 and Vodafone UK. They sit on its advisory board, shaping what they need from Open RAN vendors and acting as potential future buyers of the vendors who pass through. So picture it. AMPG's radio validated in a government-backed UK lab, whose advisory board is a who's-who of every major British carrier. The entire UK Open RAN buying ecosystem, in one room, watching the only American radio perform. Now let me be completely honest, because that's the only way this is worth anything. There is no signed UK contract. The British operators advise SONIC Labs, they do not own it, and they haven't bought anything from AMPG yet. This was a product-validation milestone, not a revenue event. Anyone telling you the UK government or a British carrier is about to hand AMPG a deal is getting ahead of the facts. A foot in the door is not a sale. But here's why it matters AMPG keeps showing up in exactly the rooms that matter. The US DoD-funded Open6G hub. The O-RAN Global PlugFest as the only American 64T64R radio to pass. A signed channel into Europe via Fujitsu Spain. And now a UK government-backed lab advised by every major British operator. And the CEO saying they'll expand to Europe. That's the pattern. The same playbook, repeated across the Western world: get the only American radio validated, get it in front of the buyers, and let the sovereignty tailwind do the rest. One market at a time. This isn't a company waiting to be discovered. It's methodically getting itself in front of every major Open RAN buyer in the US and Europe, one validation at a time. The contracts are the next step, not the first one. A foot in the door isn't a deal. But you never get the deal without it first. And AMPG's foot is now in a lot of very important doors. Still sub-$1B while all of this quietly compounds. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

Tommy Tinkler (@TinklerTommy) reported@miss___kb Yep I have used google family and virgin media security whilst kids grew up. You can block anything you want or them and restrict sites and device time and you get to okay anything they install on the device. Most adults as thick as pig **** to use them.
