I moved from T-Mo about 3 years ago because at the time the iPhone was exclusive to O2 and T-Mobile had great data. O2's been fine for me at home, and pretty good when travelling internationally, but I find plenty of places where O2's coverage is lame at best and non-existent at worst. I have a T-Mobile PAYG sim in my other phone and whilst the data is OK, I definitely think the speed and reach has gone downhill.
I have a few friends who swear by Three as having great, fast service, but I've read numerous stories about what a total nightmare their customer service is.
To be honest, right now, they all need to spend a LOT of money on upgrading their infrastructure and bandwidth, because it's clear that the rapid and widespread adoption of smartphones (and therefore data usage) has swamped them. I don't think any of the networks are providing a great service right now, so unless you have no signal where you are, you may just be better off staying with your current provider.
