Mobile phone internet network coverage @ Shows

Mobile phone internet network coverage @ Shows

by SAMBA VAN MAN » Thu Mar 12, 2015 9:19 am
As the title says I'm looking to see what networks people are on and what shows they have no internet coverage!
I'm on O2 and Stanford Hall is a dead zone, as is Malvern! Which is a pain! :twisted:

O2 isn't very good at most of the shows we attend but as said this is a bonus as it stops out daughter from staring at her phone all weekend. :cheers:
Ps can't coment on the other networks sorry.

Stonor Park is pretty poor on O2. It's a nightmare when you're trying to meet someone who you're collecting something from at the show.

You are going to get poor reception at most shows. Just the way things are.

I used to go to the shows to talk to people. Are you really that worried about what coverage you have?

My aunty betty swears by her Nokia 24/7, but does struggle to get a signal whilst on the crapper.

Face it folks, mobile phone reception is rubbish, patchy. Nothing more amusing than a plank on the train going hello.....hello. Or when someone rabbits fora half an hour, but doesn't say anything.

Wot you need is one of these.....

But, Sid down the pub swears by the 3 network.......
