Do iphones improve the coverage on the 3 network, or should we not believe the hype. I am with 3 and its awful in my home, but fine outside of it. I live in Herne Hill. Does anyone on 3 get a good coverage in their home in that area, and if so are you using an Iphone?

I use an Iphone and the service was terrible.


Even worse they made it really hard to cancel even though I was in the 14 day period. Kept transferring me to different numbers all in Indian call centres - took about 3 hours.


Then 2 months later they tried to charge me line rental again. I had to call my bank to put a block on them taking any money.

Brilliant in Lordship Lane down the Dulwich Library end. Was using my 3 'all you can eat' data plan on my phone to tether wirelessly to use the internet on my laptop and work from home when we were waiting for BT to install our new broadband. Couldn't believe the connectivity and I was using it to make calls at the same time.

Vodaphone were telling me the 'coverage' of 3 may look good on a map but often the signal cannot penetrate a building so indoors at work/home some users may not be able to get a decent signal so have you leave the building to speak.

I think Vodaphone were feeding my lines, but I'd be interested to hear if other network users have a similar reception issue as per posters above - where indoors (or only part of indoors) there's an OK signal, but outside the building it's fine.

I'm also watching 3 and started a similar thread a few weeks ago.

    • I have one Christine - yours if you want it (183cm x 307cm) 
    • Just last week I received cheques from NS&I. I wasn't given the option of bank transfer for the particular transaction. My nearest option for a parcel pick up point was the post office! The only cash point this week was the post office as the coop ATM was broken.   Many people of whatever age are totally tech savvy but still need face to face or inside banking and post office services for certain things, not least taking out cash without the worry of being mugged at the cash point.    It's all about big business saving money at the expense of the little people who, for whatever reason, still want or need face to face service.   At least when the next banking crisis hits there won't be anywhere to queue to try and demand your money back so that'll keep the pavements clear.      
    • I think it was more amazement that anyone uses cheques on a large enough scale anymore for it to be an issue.    Are cheque books even issued to customers by banks anymore? That said government institutions seem to be one of the last bastions of this - the last cheque I think I received was a tax rebate in 2016 from HMRC.  It was very irritating.
    • I know you have had a couple of rather condescending replies, advising you to get to grips with technology and live in the modern world. I sympathise with you. I think some of us should try to be a bit more empathetic and acknowledge not everyone is a technophile. Try to see things from a perspective that is not just our own. Also, why give the banking sector carte blanche to remove any sort of human/public facing role. Is this really what we want?
