  jo bell (@csijo) reported 34 minutes ago from Doncaster, England

  @virginmedia - we (YOU) have a PROBLEM!!! Why have I been charged £147 for a contract of £64 even after speaking to someone on 25/09 (when bill was received) who assured me they would escalate the issue and get it resolved?? #unhappycustomer #overcharged #problem

  Andy Baskeyfield (@Whiterosesam) reported 40 minutes ago from Doncaster, England

  @Classicbritcom @virginmedia Yep. It's known in the trade as cancellation avoidance. Cancelling / removing products from your service goes against the advisor, so they do everything to avoid it. Send email / chat saying you refuse to pay from the current date, they will do it quick enough

• 
  Jackie 🤍 (@Jackielindak) reported 43 minutes ago from Doncaster, England

  @virginmedia Well I’m trying to cancel but no one is answering so I can’t. Unfortunately i can get better deal elsewhere so will be leaving

  Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported 51 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

  Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported 54 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

  Damien Pooley (@damienpooley) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia a few weeks ago I had some broadband issues and was told a new hub would be dispatched to me. I still haven’t received it, and my account says I don’t have any open orders. I tried to contact VM via chat, but (twice) the agents said nothing when connected!

• 
  Kev (@victor50) reported 8 minutes ago

  @virginmedia if Virgin paid me £5 for every time the wifi went down, I’d be a wealthy man. I am anyway, but not quite enough to sue under the trades description act for diabolical service. Absolutely awful. The new provider can’t get in our area quick enough.

  Hells Bells (@boomhellsbells) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia experiencing outage of broadband since yesterday afternoon, it stated fix by 4.07am then moved to 4.07pm today! Working from home with no internet means now on my on second day of not being able to work 😖 you must know what is wrong!! Not just “there’s an issue”

  @virginmedia Hi, we've had a broadband/TV outage most of today & we're told it would be repaired by 22.00 tonight. Now the latest update says it will be 15.45 tomorrow 29th. I work online from home so awkward is an understatement. How is this taking so long? F012401961.

  @virginmedia inc movies & sport & 1gb broadband all for a lady who has never used either and only sends the odd email . We have just spent another evening waiting another missed call and still no response to an email we sent a couple weeks ago . This is all causing her distress .

  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

  Telefónica and Liberty Global are looking at ways to bring down the £22bn debt pile at Virgin Media O2, their UK joint venture, after a sharp sell-off in the company's bonds. A roughly $925mn unsecured note fell to as low as 57 cents on the dollar this week, down from about 78 at the start of July, and even the senior secured paper slipped. The measures under discussion include cutting the expected £200mn dividend, pulling back capex, and reducing headcount.
