Does anyone get the train from Peckham Rye/Denmark Hill which goes to E&C, Blackfriars, City Thameslink, Farringdon, St Pancs and get a good phone signal on the way?


Mine is very flaky and I certainly don't get any signal from City Thameslink to St Pancras (except for a short window at Farringdon). But, I still see people using their phones, either surfing or even taking a call... Is anyone else able to do this?

Hello!


I do that route every morning! The service is good from Peckham Rye (no service going through Denmark hill tunnel and sometimes flaky at the actual station), all the way until you enter into City Thameslink, then no service until the second set of escalators when leaving St Pancras station!!


I usually listen to the radio, when there is no service, i'm checking my emails which have downloaded to my phone...I suspect people are doing the smae or watching video content or playing games.... I've not really seen people taking calls though.

If the inanities I'm usually subjected to reached these dizzy heights I don't think I'd mind so much. Did they give marks out of ten?

Hi OD - thanks for removing some of the mystery. I have seen people speaking on their phones in City Thameslink station which I've always found odd. Can you listen to the radio with no signal? What app do you use? I'd love to get 6 music in the mornings. I mainly use the time between blackfriars and st pancras reading all the tweets from my feed in the last few hours, which is useful for my work.


E-dealer - I know exactly what you mean ;-)

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
