Ofcom, unveiled its online service called Map Your Mobile. Users enter their postcode, and it shows them a local map of available networks, with data indicating which operator provides the best performance in that postal district.

Error retrieving data for the 3 different postcodes input.

Trying it via binging Ofcom's press release the same / postcode not found when using my location.

That's not even a Beta service.

I've just checked it for my address and it's very wrong.

It also just shows “coverage”, no mention of whether you might have 2G/3G/4G/5G

OFCOM produced a report on network resilience which basically stated that providing up to 4 hour battery backup on all sites was not feasible due to it costing in the region of £1 billion. Wonder what OFCOM spent the money from their many frequency auctions on? That money would go a long way towards creating a more robust network.
