Three have discontinued roaming in places where three feel they have enough coverage but not totally.

Sorry thts not more specific, it depends if Three feel they have suitable coverage for any given spot.

It seems they are removing the orange back up from sims on a staggered basis as well, (perhaps by registered address?) as I had mine removed late last year and had to be sent a new sim by the Exec Office after I complained, 2 places in my locality had almost zero coverage in practice while their maps showed good coverage.

They did say the back up would probably be deactivated altogether this year, so it could already be done. My black spots have since been filled by normal 3 service so it's entirely possible it's off and I haven't noticed.
