‘Coverage’ means the signal strength of the network (ie 3) you’re with. If you have a strong 3 coverage, then consumers can use their phone effectively for sending texts and making calls, as well as browsing the internet. If the 3 coverage is weak, making calls and sending text can be tricky and browsing the internet slow.
To check your 3 mobile coverage, click the ‘Check Coverage’ button above. This takes you to the 3 coverage page. From here, enter your post code into the box provided. Alternatively, enter the name of the area in which you live and click search.
The area map of where you live is then coloured in. The map shows the coverage consumers can expect indoors and well as outdoors. Handily, it also states if there’s maintenance planned for that area, so you can find out in advance if your coverage will be slower or less.
3 also gives consumers the opportunity to rate their network coverage, so if you’re feeling a bit unhappy with your 3 network coverage you can let them know.
To get the 3 mobile coverage available, go to the section named ‘How can I improve the signal in my house?’ which will give you handy hints and tips as to how to get the best coverage.
The 3 coverage page also explains things such as the difference between 3G and 2G coverage to ensure that consumers understand the services they are eligible for.
The 3 network coverage page is a mini hub of information regarding coverage to ensure that consumers get the best information available to them.
