I would be quite happy with my current provider O2, were it not for the fact that in my home close to Goose Green roundabout, I get such a weak signal that I usually have to go outside to make a call. Can anyone recommend provider who might have better coverage in this area?


Apologies if this has been recently covered in another thread, to which I would be happy to be signposted.

The only reliable way is to get a free PAYG sim from each of the other providers and see what the signal is like in your house. It's that variable and no website will give you 100% accurate data for your particular hosue.


Or use TuGo as others suggest.

I did try TuGo, but found it didn't work very well. Sometimes, it didn't respond when there was an incoming call, which meant that I couldn't answer. And when I called out the quality was very poor.


But thanks for the suggestion of getting a PAYG sim. I had thought of this, but hoped to narrow it down before I went through the hassle of getting hold of them. I assume you can pick them up for nothing, these days?

Are you on a 3G or a 4G phone? I found upgrading my phone to 4G had a massive improved impact on signal quality at the other end of Lordship Lane. I believe this is because all the networks are focused on upgrading/improving 4G coverage at the expense of 3G, but if you're on a 3G only phone it might be worth considering.
There's not enough masts to cope. Everybody keeps screaming out "I don't want a mast in my road"etc but then cry when they can't get a signal. Well, there is limited capacity the masts can deal with. I use TuGo at home, technically it's supposed to use your WiFi and not masts, many times I'll get a voicemail pop up and missed call even though the phone is with me all the time and has never actually rang-nothing is perfect in these days of modern technology.

    • Dear all, Bit of a random ask but in such a supportive and accepting community, I thought I'd see if anyone had time to help 🙂 I'm conducting research for my MSc Psychology dissertation, using a brief anonymous survey to explore romantic and polyamorous relationships and how/if attitudes around this interact with factors such a family history and family making. The survey should take no longer than 10-15 mins and has been approved by the University of Roehampton. I'm hoping to circulate the survey widely enough that the data gathered is representational of the diversity in modern society across various aspects that constitutes personal identity. Some of the questions are of a personal nature and others could be considered a bit 'spicy', but just to reiterate, this is an anonymous survey.
