Vodafone or EE seem to give best coverage in Suffolk/East Anglia in general. |  | |  |

Tesco is O2. Vodafone is rubbish too! A trick that worked for me at Portman Road was to set mobile data to work on 3G rather than 4G. Unfortunately when I moved to a 5G capable phone the option to run on 3G data was lost. Now get pretty much zero data at home games. {Edit: Hadn't noticed same suggestion in previous post! ] [Post edited 7 Jun 2023 13:44]

Why? Don't they use exactly the same network? |  |

I have tried that 3g thing, but it didn't make any difference. |  | |  |

I'm on EE Works 90% of the time I pick up the other scores from the west stand middle tier. |  | |  |
About to switch SIM on 19:36 - Jun 7 with 1106 views | Mark | I am with Plusnet (EE) which struggled at half-time as I suspect all networks do. As Plusnet Mobile closes soon I am currently switching to Lebara (Vodafone) on the 5GB 99p a month rising to £5.90 a month offer ( https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cheap-mobile-finder/sim-only/ ). Lebara are one of the few to offer free roaming in Europe, with most firms now using their Brexit freedoms to hammer us with extra charges when we travel to Europe on holiday.
