Richie Hall (@RichieH37745130) reported from Leeds, England@virginmedia @O2 Signal normal drops out due to signals from other routers would and can cloud your signal. The intelligent WiFi of the HUB 3.0 will switch between 2.4ghz and 5ghz wnd there is where you will experience the drop connection. My recommendation is a pin hole reset. 👍

Marie MIllward (@mariemillward) reported from Leeds, England@GrahamHyde @virginmedia The ****** thing about this is that we have recently had to change an elderly relative’s number after he had been scammed several times, including one who was specifically and repeatedly targeting him. The distress and wasted time from this theft and deception is horrible.

Daniel DOA4 (XBOX) & Daniel_DOA4 (PSN) (@Daniel_DOA4) reported@virginmedia my internet broadband and tv are not working! This isn’t the first time this has happened to me! Really annoyed and need to use internet everyday. I do have mobile data on my phone but that will most likely max out. Please help! #notfair #BadService #IsSkyBetter?
-
Just Ian (@ConnorsOldMan) reported@virginmedia I've not sorted a new provider yet but have cancelled my virgin services already. Your company is not interested in sorting customers out with what they want, rather than making them keep a service they don't need. I was told i needed to keep my phone for Internet!
-
Ricky Butcher (@rickybutcher_) reported@virginmedia 5 mins left in the match & forced to sit through 3x 20/30 second ads for Real Madrid Vs Bayern Munich. I promise you, whatever pennies you're gleaning from people tuning in late they are wildly offset by those who'll swear never to give you another penny otherwise.

Lynne Marshall (@benalblogger) reported@virginmedia no internet for 2 days. Virgin call handler tells me she will make appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Nothing showing on my app. She says nothing wrong with Virgin internet. System shows problem. No appointment showing on my app. Cancelling priority

Bath Supporters (@BathSupporters) reported@KenTrowbridge3 @virginmedia Worst supplier I have ever had - but we have no choice for full fibre here, so it’s literally the best of a bad bunch. I will change when other providers come in at a heartbeat!

rick_x (@rick_x) reported@virginmedia I want to make a complaint but with a paper/electronic trail, I have been trying to get a fault addressed but it has been impossible to speak to anyone hence the complaint

Startup Heist (@startupheist) reportedLook up Scammer Payback on YouTube. This guy has 8.6 million subscribers. Over a billion views. His whole thing is picking up scam calls and keeping scammers talking for as long as humanly possible. Sometimes 40 minutes. All of it recorded, edited, posted. Content gold. Kitboga does the same thing. 3.6 million subs. Makes about $450K a year wasting scammers' time. These legends built an entire content genre out of revenge customer service. And they're both doing it manually in 2026. See the pattern? Smell the opportunity? Not yet? Okay: Virgin Media actually built an AI granny called Daisy in 2024. She answered scam calls, confused the hell out of scammers, kept them on the line for 40-50 minutes. 1,800 pieces of media coverage. After paying £20K to robo-granny and winning some big deal marketing award, they pat themselves on the back and just sayonara everybody. See it now? 52.5 billion robocalls hit Americans last year. 71% of people say they want a way to get back at scammers. The creators already proved the audience. The AI already proved it works. The product that puts them together — an app where an AI persona answers your suspicious calls, wastes their time, and turns the transcript into a clip you can post — is sitting right there. Jolly Roger Telephone Company already does a basic version. $1.2 million a year at $24 per subscriber. Running on ChatGPT. That's with zero creator tools and zero viral mechanics. Add auto-clipping, captions, one-click export to Shorts and Reels, and every scam call becomes a piece of content. The consumer app gets people in. The creator layer is where it prints. Use our playbook, or not, seriously someone build this already.
