Norfolk Coverage

reclusive46

I have noticed Vodafone and o2 have been sharing masts a lot more in Norfolk. Maybe it'll make Norfolk bearable at some point. Everyone seems to have mixed experiences. There is a good deal on the Tesco Mobile / o2 at the moment and I'm going to get it and try it out. If its crap I have 14 days to cancel it.

Vodafone had a contract with Eastern Electricity (when it was called this) whereby they had to guarantee coverage across all Norfolk by. Certain date or they would lose the contract. if I didn't get my 40% discount with Orange, I would go back to Vodafone, but their customer service used to suck when I was with them.

I'm with Orange and find it ok most places.

Norwich was one of Threes showcase areas when they first started and they have masts going up quite a lot around here.

O2 were ok when I used to be with them, but may main problem with them was network congestion and getting a 'line out'.

Everywhere I go in Norwich seems to have a poor 3 signal. Even roaming onto Oranges 2G (Although getting rare) or just having no service at all.

I only really get Orange and o2 coverage at home indoors (I live in the middle of suburbs and get a weak signal on most networks. I used to get 3 at home but don't anymore.)

That’s strange, I don’t experience any difficulties, I'm here in Norwich now and have a good signal. Maybe it’s your phone?

I live near Diss and all networks are terrible in our village. Driving along the A140 to Norwich its hit and miss with orange and T-mobile.

3 has more masts in Norwich than anyone else.

T-mobile/Orange are probably best now, especially with Orange's coverage of the coast.

Vodafone is decent

O2 is the worst

I heard, T-Mobile is Good.

I have a friend on T-Mobile. He says its ok coverage wise but call quality is not amazing and they cap the data speeds a lot.

Vodafone is best so far here (norwich). I am on t mobile and get no signal in my flat at all lol. Should say my DH has vodafone and anyone who comes round on vodafone always has a signal
