Best Mobile Phone Coverage in SE22?


Recommended Posts

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.

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.

    • I would not describe the area as very gentrified, esp not the bit that was built 30 years ago. It's human scale, low rise flats and terraces mixed on cul de sacs for the most part, but it's not knee deep in Gail's and, candle shops and luxury butchers. The cluster of new blocks of flats near the new Decathlon and Canada Water tube is shinier- but tbh that's just what modern blocks of flats look like these days. Everything gets promoted by estate agents as luxury. More housing is good, whatever the type - dumping supply on the market always helps. I am sure there will be adequate provision for pizza restaurants and entertainment in the new mixed use development. And don't forget everyone's favourite Dulwich Library also has a ~free~ film club for adults: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/libraries/adults/library-activities-for-adults
    • Odd comment about high end development at Surrey Quays - when the docks went most of the area became very gentrified, thirty plus years ago   There's the odd bit of old school working class left.   Go a mile the other way, and very old school, but I don't see anyone reminiscing about closed pubs off Trundleys Road and the like ,  the loss of New Cross Greyhound stadium or the Venue
