I have switched from T-Mobile and have far more signal with tesco mobile.
Also when I bought my mobile it came with £20.00 free airtime after 5 days had not revieved it emailed them and got £20.00 credited twice :eek:

As others have said they use the O2 network for their coverage and O2 is probably one of the best up here.

My son bought one a few weeks back and hasn't had any reception problems.

Where are you? I have a vodafone and my wife orange and we have had no problem with eaither. We have used both in Thurso and Wick over the past weeks and never had any difficulty. Also o2/Tesco seem OK all over county with a few black spot whih you get with all of the services.

Iv'e been with Tesco Mobile in Caithness for over 6 months. iv'e had great reception everywhere. - even better than hubby's vodafone. The only place i noticed i had no signal was on Drumochter Pass on my way south. but then again i don't think anyone gets a signal on that part of the road.
