We have users on all the networks and I reckon most have experienced a reduced service at some point. Trouble is that as more people move in this direction, the network providers need to upgrade their systems to cope with the demand and while they’re doing this, they often run very slowly or even go off completely.

But as the sayin goes, you can't make cakes without breaking a few eggs in the process! :lol:

I think the ideal situation for anybody would be a pda or data unit running on gprs with pmr fall back or the other way around but not many companies av that capability within their system but as a loss of service with your landlines or gprs connection at least you av a chance of falling back to 1

They moved us onto Orange after some major issues with O2, the downtime with Orange is no where near as much as it was with O2.
