Best Provider for Sheffield Uni

DD1 is hopping to go to Sheffield Uni in September with accommodation in the Endcliffe Village.

Can somebody please tell me which provider has the best phone coverage for those areas.

Thanks

    Really the only way of knowing is by checking each mobile phone companies coverage checker on their website.

    My sister is at sheffield uni and recently left vodafone and went to t-mobile, both have great coverage in the city area as did I on 3 when I was there last week, in general id like to think any big city is going to be fine regardless on which provider you use.

    I'm from Sheffield and have been with the following 3 networks in the past

    Orange = Very poor coverage around sheffield

    T-mobile = decentish coverage

    o2 = excellent coverage everywhere in sheffield

    Thanks to all. Looks like it will have to be O2 as she wants the LG Renoir.
    Only Orange & O2 do this. She found that Orange coverage was chronic during the open day visit.

    mugwunp, 3 also do the LG Renoir and I had no issues with coverage when I was in Sheffield last week. Full HSDPA nearly all the time.:)
