My phone is about 6 years old so I thought it was about time to get a new one ... one with the internet. ooooooohhhh. Virgin mobile have some good deals at the moment but would be grateful if anyone who's on this network could comment on the network coverage in Caithness ... Thurso in particular.

According to their website my postcode gets 'very good coverage' for 2G but 3G is non-existent. Can anyone share their experience?

Virgin are actually a "Virtual" Network and use T-Mobile's network.

I gave up on Virgin a year ago. Coverage was patchy across the county and they had no plans to introduce 3G.
