  Well...an entire day of no internet connectivity today after ‘planned disruption due to network improvement engineering’ yesterday by @virginmedia. Amazing. 20min onhold to be told by support that my router is offline...thanks but that’s what the status lights are for. #shite

  Not happy with @virginmedia for the past couple of weeks my download speed has dropped to 1/3rd of what i am paying for and no way to talk to an actual person about it. Just a robot that jeeps telling me to do the crap ive already done 10 times already. 😡🤬😡

  @virginmedia My son has tried ten times in two days to cancel broadband from his ex partners house which he's paying for from you. Each time you hang up.. Shocking service.. @MartinSLewis can you offer any suggestions please..! 🙏

  @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported 17 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

  Calam Smithson (@CalamSmithson) reported 17 minutes ago from Garforth, England

  Nothing but poor customer service from @virginmedia. When are you going to sort my issue which has been ongoing for months!

  Susan Turner (@GazaniaGal) reported 18 minutes ago from Wetherby, England

  @virginmedia This is a small house, I have not had this problem in the 5 years we’ve had Virgin and, unfortunately, I cannot afford an extra £3 per month to see whether a booster is a solution.

  @virginmedia 2nd day running wifi gone down at this time. What is going on????? #CrapBroadband

  @virginmedia constantly poor broadband speed again today.

• 
  James Airey (@lordairey) reported 25 minutes ago from Wetherby, England

  How @virginmedia are still in business is a miracle - the irony of queuing for over 30 mins on the phone to cancel because of poor service is brilliant!

• 
  Jamesrodgers (@Jamesro17879287) reported 26 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  @virginmedia Already ran the test on the app, get a nice bright yellow Exclamation mark, telling me what I already know, the WiFi is ****....

• 
  Susan Turner (@GazaniaGal) reported 26 minutes ago from Wetherby, England

  @virginmedia Checked all rooms - this is a small detached house - every room says cannot receive a signal except the living room. A conservatory is in direct sight of the Hub and maybe only 10 meters away; Kitchen Same distance with just one wall. In every room, it recommended a booster .

  @Barrage_Jeff @virginmedia Loads of people having same issues and they keep saying everything’s fine. Mines either cut off completely or running appallingly slowly

  @virginmedia @ItsBigZuu @YUAFOfficial Nobody cares, anybody working from customer service today? After a WiFi booster

  Susan Turner (@GazaniaGal) reported 32 minutes ago from Wetherby, England

  @virginmedia Only just seen your reply. Intermittent Friday morning but never as good as it should be!

• 
  Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported 36 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  @virginmedia £55 a month JUST for Internet from April? Been a customer for over 20 years when it was £20 a month. Loyalty just gets you taken advantage of I guess.

• 
  Jamesrodgers (@Jamesro17879287) reported 48 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  @virginmedia any danger of you providing decent speeds or anybody answering your at your customer service centres? Only been with you 2 weeks and already wanting to leave.

  Matt Ward (@mattwillward) reported 55 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  @virginmedia I'm moving home and want to take Virgin Broadband with me. Your 'Let's chat' button doesn't work. Can you help please?

• 
  Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported 59 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  ....and now my Internet goes down for the second time this month and its only the 5th. Thanks @virginmedia you keep emailing me asking how I found your service tools, well I wish I didn't have to use them so damn much!

  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

  @seanhg72 @virginmedia I’d be fuming as I use my phone as an alarm and it’s nearby incase of family emergency.

  @virginmedia you have left my 71 year old mother without internet and TV since 18th July due to a “problem in the area” and now you’re saying it won’t be fixed until 31st July? Two whole weeks you’ve left an elderly person completely isolated with no form of entertainment.

  Well that's the end of almost 20 years with @virginmedia with zero attempts to retain a long standing customer! What deals have you got on @skytv?

  Why can't/wont either RTÉ or Virgin Media cover some of the Irish festivals with a live feed similar to Glastonbury? It's a damn shame.

  Angela (@AngstAHD) reported 28 minutes ago

  .@virginmedia how are we supposed to get help/customer service? Phonelines are unanswered, the online chat goes around in circles and then stops communicating, the Whatsapp service doesn't work. Woeful today.

  @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.
