I wonder if that's why 3's speed tests are so good where I am right now because there's no T-mobile customers using 3G!

HSPA+, not DC.

Different backhauls so shouldn't make a blind bit of difference.
Going by your ping the 'cell' and backhaul is still pretty busy.

I was out in Nottingham last night, and didn't have any issues, Strange.

Did I spot another promotion of the 3 Network on a thread about an EE outage?

It's becoming a bit tiresome seeing threads constantly polluted with such stuff.

Oh ok. I don't usually get 12 Megs, so I was trying to think why it was so unusually high. It didn't sound like a very big EE outage of data, I looked on Twitter and couldn't see much fuss at all.
