  Virgin Media @virginmedia should be investigated by Ofcom they are taking money from people while not supplying a service. They are providing a substandard service when the do supply it. Major areas of Glasgow no internet until Jan 5th. Do not join this company they are the worst

  @virginmedia must be the worst company in the world to sort out an issue. Can’t even say their customer service is bad, as can’t get talking to a human being!! Time for change!😤

  Tony McCaffery (he/they) (@tonymccaffery) reported 20 minutes ago from Glasgow, Scotland

  Hey @virginmedia, can you help please? I’ve never plugged a landline phone to my router since becoming a customer. (I never needed one til now). So I just took the voip/landline adapter out the box and it’s broken. How do I get a new one so that I can plug in a landline? Thanks.

  Craig Reid (@reid2131) reported 22 minutes ago from Larkhall, Scotland

  @virginmedia I had a quick start broadband kit sent out. I fitted it all. No broadband, despite 6 calls to your “help” line. Been told a different fault each call. Can this be looked into?

  Paul Ford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@Paul_Ford80) reported 28 minutes ago from Hamilton, Scotland

  @virginmedia Hi, any issues affecting ML3 0QJ? Had no service on my broadband for about half an hour and its been on and off all day. Thanks.

  David A (@tofolo_1) reported 32 minutes ago from Glasgow, Scotland

  @virginmedia Are you kidding? I am not paying 30p a minute to call you. The contact us page says webchat but no link? It also says some text service but no number? Are you also just making it impossible to get in touch. If this becomes any harder to set up billing I will cancel....

  @LynneLang3 @virginmedia Aye the cheek will help, apologise you ungrateful jerk

• 
  David A (@tofolo_1) reported 36 minutes ago from Glasgow, Scotland

  @virginmedia Perhaps if you read my messages? 1st message said I don't have a land line. 0345 is 30p a minute on O2 PAYG (your merger partner) This is a sign of customer service to come. I will cancel before my connection date. Thanks for confirming my fears about virgin.

  Alan Lappin (@GiggsyBlantyre) reported 36 minutes ago from Hamilton, Scotland

  @mcneill1967 @virginmedia Not filling me with confidence! Phoned for update, boy said he could help, which he couldn’t. Asked to be put through to CRT, “I’ll do that”. “Hello, Retention Team”. Nope.

  @virginmedia you have the worst streaming service EVER. Thinking of quitting you, because it's 💩

  Elenita (@Coops_71) reported 49 minutes ago from Thornliebank, Scotland

  @virginmedia is there a problem with email all of a sudden? It was working this morning and now when I try to send an email from Outlook or on my iPhone, I’m told my password is wrong and when I try to log onto webmail I’m told I have no password.

  @O2 hi there can you please help 3 people are on o2 in own house hold and on 3G I have no signal and On 4G I Have no signal what is going on please help @virginmedia

• 
  Crawford Milne (@CrawfordMilne) reported 55 minutes ago from Glasgow, Scotland

  So @virginmedia won't send out a technician because the signal coming into my house is fine - even though I keep telling them it's a problem with the WiFi from the router. I was offered a technician at a cost of £25 !! Absolutely disgraceful customer 'service'.

  @virginmedia I signed up to a new broadband service and the hib was due to be sent yesterday but I cant call to speak to anyone or log into a virgin account as I dont have an account number yet. Can you help?

• 
  Banshee (@strikecenter147) reported 6 minutes ago

  @Benleo Ben bring up your hub on virgin media I guarantee you it’s been hacked and you get a warning. This is happening all over London and I can’t get anybody to help me with it. Bring up your own Virgin media hub and you will see what I mean.

  Good afternoon everyone I’ll briefly share my POV on choosing a good proxy. Here are the 3 major things you must check before using any IP: 1. ISP (Internet Service Provider)
This is the most important factor.
Think of it like our local networks — Glo, Airtel, MTN, or 9mobile.
Always pick residential consumer ISPs (e.g., AT&T, Comcast for USA; Telstra/TPG for Australia; Virgin Media, BT, Vodafone for UK) instead of datacenter providers (DigitalOcean, AWS, Choopa, etc.).
Websites easily flag datacenter IPs, but residential ones look like normal users on home Wi-Fi or mobile data. 2. Fraud Score / IP Reputation
Before binding the proxy, test it with tools like Scamalytics, IPQS, or Pixelscan. • ✅ Low Fraud Score (0–10) = Clean & safe. • ❌ High Fraud Score (30+) = Avoid. It will trigger CAPTCHAs, bot detection, or shadowbans.
Also check it’s not blacklisted on major spam databases. 3. IP Range (First 3 Octets)
Not all ranges from the same ISP perform the same. Some subnets get abused over time.
Australia examples:
❌ Avoid: 1., 101., 110.
✅ Good: 124., 121., 120. (Telstra) | 80. (TPG)
UK examples:
✅ Good: 86., 80. (Virgin Media) | 82., 78. (BT) Pick the right ISP and you’ll rarely get flagged. This was the main issue a lot of people faced with services like Outlier and Handshake. What proxy challenges are you currently facing? Drop them below

  @virginmedia I logged a complaint a few weeks ago regarding mis-sold broadband rate. I rejected your initial offer in writing, then spent over 1 hour on hold only to be promised a callback in 20 minutes that never happened. Please check my complaint.

• 
  Filer (@FilerPlays) reported 12 minutes ago

  @MachineGunLuk3y @virginmedia Majority’s of the ISP’s in my area run off the BT network so I’ve got fibre to the property with about 1GB down. I’ve had Virgin before and didn’t rate it, had issues similar to yourself as well mate.

  Philip Mackey (@PhilipMackey2) reported 21 minutes ago

  @VirginMediaIE Day 10. Literally have no words left to describe how inept Virgin Media are. No tv service for 10 days since we moved home & had media connect technician set up our broadband (which works!) & our tv service,which spectacularly does not.

  @virginmedia you are an absolute disgrace. Internet down since Friday and you are saying the 30th to put right? Absolute joke why the delay?

  Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported 22 minutes ago

  @thenorth4theeu @virginmedia I tried to change a few years ago but they made the process impossible. They sent me texts instead of emails and no other providers will deal with Virgin directly. They have just been fined for their poor customer service, I think. They don't even reach basic standards of decency
