a survey comparing the quality of network for MVNOs
Options
Would anyone be interested in taking a survey, comparing the quality of network for MVNOs (Mobile virtual network operators such as TPO, Giffgaff, BT, Plusnet, iD mobile, etc.) versus the four Mobile Network Operators (O2, Vodafone, Three, EE)? That is, have you found that having a contract directly with one of the four mobile network operators is noticeably better than having a contract with one of the mobile virtual network operators? It has certainly been my experience, and I'd be interested to hear others' opinions. From some brief research, in the USA lower priority is apparently given to MVNO users compared to users with contracts directly with the network, which, if applied to the UK, would explain poor reliability of, say, a Plusnet signal compared to an EE signal.
I'm not talking about customer service or anything like that here, just the reliability of the mobile signal for voice/data/texts.
