Re - Network Mobile and Broadband line coverage
Hi,
Hurray!! At last I have managed to get out of my 3 mobile contract after YEARS of having poor reception. I now have 20 days to get a new mobile but which do I buy and which gets me the best coverage as I am moving to another town? I will mainly use it for the phone, don't do FB or twitter but want the internet connection as I do find it useful when I am out and about. The Iphone or blackberry or the new HTC?
I will also be getting broadband at my house so will also need to change this - am I better getting a bundle package for sky, broadband and telephone? I am not in a contract for this at the moment either. I noticed from other threads that there are websites about strengths but that people advice to try out the phones - how can I do this on my current phone? Also it stated that my current area was excellent yet I know this is NOT the case. I don't want to make the wrong decision and be tied to a poor reception for several years as its been EXTREMELY stressful to get out of this contract. How do I get the reception right and then decide on the phone? I get no signal what so ever when I have visited my new home. I am not technical but I relied on the mobile phone companies honest sales guys(don't laugh!) and so am reluctant to use their advice again. Any advice on how to ascertain the best home broadband and also the best mobile reception would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
