UK 3G coverage sucks

Posted on April 18, 2006 | 2 Comments

I’m sat in the heart of the business district in Birmingham, in one of the hotels which seems to be relatively popular with business people (at least, those on a budget). No 3G network coverage. I’ve got this lovely Vodafone 3G card capable of up to 384Kbps, subsisting on less than dial-up speeds. When will the mobile networks get this fixed?

    From experience they won’t do anything until the competition heats up…

    Hmm. Well of course it would be better if the hotel were to provide wireless, but in my experience the more “budget” chains have little incentive to do that.
