Need to go with another tariff as I don't get signal with T-Mobile
Hi Guys,
I have been with T-Mobile for years and always found them great! I need to change tariff as I don't get any signal in my new house! I haven't got a clue which phone to go for of who to go with. Does anyone have any advice as to who to go with and any good phones that are out there. I quite liked the look of the Nokia 7373 or the Sony Ericsson W810i Help!!! |

Changing Tariff wont do you any good, you need to change network.
Orange, Vodafone and O2 are generally better for coverage than the others. orange Dolphin £35 is a good tariff at the moment, giving loads of minutes and SMS for £35. SE W810i has been around for a while now, and I think the K800i is a better phone. Go into a Phone store such as the Carphone Warehouse, and have a look at them, they have most of the more popular phones available as demos, so you can actually play with them and see what you think. |

IT might be worth waiting for the N95, which is due out in March.
5mp camera, WiFi, and internet browsing, looks like it will be a nice phone. |

Vodafone and O2 seem to have the best coverage. I've recently swapped to Vodafone because the Virgin signal is terrible round here. I live in a rural area.

Make sure you're out of your tnobile contract commitment period - having a poor signal is not reasonable grounds for an early get-out and you'll be charged for the rest of the line rental.

I think it would be perfectly fair to say that 3 of the UK networks have significantly better coverage than the remaining one. Don't get me wrong, T-Mobile has come a long way since the One2One days - but they're still not a patch on the big-3 once you go off the beaten track. Of course there will be the occasional local exceptions, but on the whole... |

Vodafone O2 Orange T-Mobile T-Mobile might not have the best signal in your experience but in others they will have and are a main network. Last edited by RYPW : 19-03-2007 at 12:09. |

I to switch from T-mobile to O2 as they are the only one with a good signal where I now live. Have had no trouble with them for the last 18 months.

Or go onto their websites and check the coverage in your area, most of them provide that info somewhere on their sites. Alternatively, try this one: http://www.sitefinder.ofcom.org.uk/ On the left hand column click on 'Find GB site' and then in the box type in your post code and you can check the masts in your area. |
