ILFRACOMBE FINALLY GETS IMPROVED MOBILE PHONE COVERAGE

September 17, 2009 11:52 AM

Landmark Theatre"After continual lobbying of mobile phone companies over the paucity of coverage in the Ilfracombe area," says Nick Harvey, "3 have finally got the message."

"Following network improvements 3 is extending coverage to include Ilfracome for the very first time. As part of its network share agreement with T-Mobile, the two 3G networks are being consolidated.

"As a result 3 are planning to extend mobile broadband service to 98 per cent of the population by the end of 2010."

Simon Fell, 3's Regulatory & Public Affairs Manager recently told Nick,

"Due to a significant level of improvement to our mobile network in the Ilfracombe area your constituents are able to gain 3 coverage for the first time.

Notably we were the first mobile operator to charge a flat rate for data, to offer included calls any time to any network and the first to offer on-network roaming to our customers travelling abroad."

    If you are a resident of the North Devon constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
