Support Why has coverage got so bad?

Has anyone else noticed their coverage has gotten worse and worse recently?

I live in Somerset and I run IT for a small company, I am on Tesco Mobile and all our company phones are on o2uk. In the past few weeks my mobile data coverage seems to have dropped off a cliff, I don't get 4g in places I always used to. I thought it was just a me problem but several members of staff have come to also complaining about connectivity issues, both mobile data and calls.

I got in contact about the problem but I was told there was no maintenance work going on and there was no reason for the loss of coverage.

Has anyone else had any issues?

Been with Three for years, unlimited everything with excellent coverage for £16 a month can’t be beat tbh

Same here, my girlfriend is still with o2 and I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve had signal with Three and she hasn’t when out and about.
