    @BlodAxeMox @ItsRusherr I had a similar issue about 18 months ago and it was actually Virgin Media at fault! Congestion on line and old splitters coming from the box on the street into my apartment! Might be worth a call to the ISP rush! For me it was timeouts on the line causing it .

    Virgin Media Ireland says it doesn’t have a “repair time frame” on a sizeable broadband outage affecting “the Dublin area”. It hopes that the undiagnosed issue will be fixed today as, “given the scale it would be very rare for this to continue for the full day”.

    Dear people of the UK.. count yourselves lucky you don’t have to listen to the clueless “pundits” on virgin media ireland. People that NEVER played at the top of the game making comments like. “De Gea should have dived quicker” And “Pogba was doing the YMCA”

    @griptmedia @john_mcguirk From RTE point of view cheap price...Means they never have to have John McGuirk on again for fear of libel....Newstalk and Virgin media can use the same excuse....

    @virginmedia JAJAJAJAJA that must be a joke. In the complaint, your colleagues said they will train the staff better HAHAHA Train better to make it less noticeable. It is a shame how @virginmedia went from a great supplier to a pathetic one.

  • Phils_Cassidy

    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 why is it so difficult to speak to customer service? Chat isn’t replaying and I’ve been hung up on and ignored twice. I have a complaint but I suppose if you ignore me you don’t have to deal with it 👌

    @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.

  • MonicaAllan1
    Monica Allan (@MonicaAllan1) reported

    @virginmedia It look like our outage in NW1 will be fixed by the 31st August? Surely that cannot be correct? We have have been without broadband and TV for 3 days now?

    @CVB1866 @virginmedia Good luck with this, their customer service is pretty crap.
