No reception on Orange mobile in work?

Hi
I have a Sony Ericsson W810I. Its on a monthly contract with orange. Up until yesterday afternoon I could get a reception on my phone , pretty much all over the building where I work. Now I cant receive/send texts or make calls.
Ive walked all round the ground floor and upstairs and the reception is practically zero, only fluttering on for a second.
When i got home last night, I got a load of late texts and missed calls.

Is this likely to be a temporary glitch on the network or a fault with the mobile phobe itself? Would a replacement handset or sim be the key, or wold orange now what the problem with the network is?
Now that Im totally incommunicado to family and friends, it makes you feel a bit worried in case something happened at home!
Any advice would be really appreciated.

    Could be your employer has installed a phone signal killer or its just that there was a network problem with the mast in the vicinity of your works

  • I work at carphone warehouse?! Would it be in their best interest to stop employees having access to a product that they sell?

    It's probably a problem with the nearest cell site - if you call Orange they should know if there is work going on or any problems.
