    Quick question, if @virginmedia made £5.9B last year why is my bill increasing by 30% per month? No additional services, no increased bandwidth and 1 UHD channel #CustomerSatisfaction is poor! Think that @SkyUK might be cheaper! #compare

    @virginmedia The worst part is you say 30% rise in bills will make you more resilient and less prone to defective services, this isn’t true… @virginmedia

    @virginmedia And the other £3bn did what? 10% data increase is not an excuse to increase my bill by 30% and not increase my service. #wasteofmoney and #wasteoftime

    @virginmedia do you know if your mobile network is usable beyond TfL Zone 4? I have been having slow connectivity in the past couple of weeks in Ickenham, but visiting Bath this weekend showed that it could be much worse.

    Everyone'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. 📡

    @virginmedia Is there a broadband outage in ML1 postcode ? No service for last 30 mins

  • DrAmirHamid

    @virginmedia we have not had broadband since the 11th of June! You estimate it will only be fixed on the 16th. With no other communications. Very very poor

    @VictorMeldrew77 @virginmedia Ensure you register the outage on their website, then you might get compensation.

    @DiBrander We left Virgin Media because they were awful at fixing issues. We had a fault go on for over a month but no compensation because you have to have full service loss. It was over £90 a month too.

    @virginmedia hi our wifi has been intermittent and slow all week and is now once again not working. Can't even get on to your website. Seems to be local to SE27 as my neighbours also have the same problem. Can we please get this fixed?
