Stop! Collaborate, and listen...
I wish the folks repeatedly trolling the line “Sort out 2G/3G rather than focussing on 4G” would shut up for a moment and actually read what Vodafone have been clearly promising all along…
They aren’t “just” rolling out 4G. They are in fact overhauling each and every transmission site nationally, which includes 2G and 3G, in many cases adding 3G to a location for the first time.
I can testify to this being the case. Living in a large(ish) East Midlands city where my Vodafone devices previously used to drop to 2G in most indoor locations, Vodafone’s improvements over the last 12 months have been stunning – all but one of these locations now has excellent 3G and 4G indoors and out, in many cases outperforming my EE device which still drops to 2G or has terribly slow 3G.
If Vodafone do indeed deliver on their stated intentions to replicate this nationally over the next couple of years, they’ll be a cracking network. That will just leave the telephone customer services to sort out, but I guess that’s another story…
