We’re fixing an issue with our network in this area

Updates on our work will be posted here. We’re working as fast as we can to build a better, stronger network in your area.
Unfortunately, no network can tell you how strong your signal will be indoors. That's because the signal strength needed to pass through walls and windows varies from building to building.
Issues with your device or account
Your SIM card, phone settings, a low battery, and running older software can all affect the signal. If your account is on hold, that will also prevent use of the network.
Location
The closer you are to a mast, the stronger your signal. It can also be affected by geographical things, like hills, valleys, forests, etc.
Extreme weather
Strong winds, flooding, storms, falling trees, etc. can all affect phone masts.
Temporary structures
Cranes or scaffolding, for example, can obstruct the signal.
Temporary network outages
When we're carrying out planned or unplanned maintenance, your signal will probably be affected.
