This could solve rubbish Orange mobile reception issues!

[Beezy]

Evening All,

 

My mate told me about this, after having a moan to him about my rubbish Orange mobile reception.

 

Basically, as Orange have joined with T-mobile, users can now share reception masts, improving the range of masts available inyour area, it cant swap during calls, so wont stop a call dropping out, but may help?

 

Just dial 150 (cust services) from your Orange mobile and ask the operator to activate your T-mobile sharing service, its that easy, and has defo improved things for me!

 

Hope this is handy for some.

Cheers

Beezy

You reckon? Can't say I've noticed any improvement at all. And as for their broadband - spit spit. Why is it that when something wasn't broke, some jerk insists on fixing it and makes it crap?

Our orange broadband works well, but at least twice a year for the past 3 years it conks out and i have to spend half an hour on the phone to India to fix it, same with you?

Works the other way too.

 

I'm on T mobile and can use orange now.

 

Its been quite helpful to me as we live in a patchy area.

its the other way for me, i'm with tmobile and have always had good reception in most places but since the new mast share ive had problem after problem with connection and can rarely hold a conversation without getting cut off.

No, never conked out in 6 years, just grinding to a halt.

This interests me because many moons ago I used to do surveys for T-Mobile transmitters.

 

Reception can only be improved.

 

I hope we end up on the continental system where your phone locks on to the strongest signal available from any network.

 

O2 traditionally had the best coverage, but I feel this is now getting worse, not better. Nowt like resting on your laurels!

O2 are shocking in the Surrey area. South of Guildford you can drive for 7-8 miles before you can get a signal
