Best mobile network in the UK

who's best for coverage and 3G?

who gives you the best value for money?

and also who offers the best perks, eg. orange wednesdays

personally i reckon o2 are shite value for money.

Ive tried them all and always gone back to o2 as they have the best signal in the places that I goto. Don't care about perks as I just want to be able to make calls, and not get film tickets.

no, when i say value for money, im talking about what you get calls,texts,internet wise for how much you pay, O2 are an abortion of a network for that.

Ahh right. Well I use Giffgaff as it uses the o2 network but only costs me 10 quid a month for loads of texts and minutes. Unlimited internet too.

Very little difference in terms of service or price between O2, Orange and Vodafone.

The other two are shite.

Giff gaff by far

Best for data, without a doubt is 3.

Biggest 3G network and fastest.

However....they have no 2G network on the whole so struggle for signal in remote places.

For data, 3 without a doubt, for voice only, I would assume Tmobile/Orange after the merger?

If they didn't use O2's garbage network then I would agree.

Virgin is awful, can't even get signal in my room. Get texts the next day from 12 hours ago ffs.

just changed from O2, who were shocking !!!! I couldn't wait to get shot of them

and went to 3.and am over the moon with them
pretty much everywhere is 3g covered which NEVER happened on o2 and the unlimited data which also includes unlimited tethering upto your laptop is a fantastic bonus
I would reccomend them to anyone
