U.k. only ~ 3 mobile reception?

Why does the mobile network `3` have such a poor reception??

Answers:
Hi,I work for three moblie,so just to give you an answer,88% of the reception is actual 3G network,and where it doesn't have repception it falls back onto the O2 network,what would be worth while doing is checking on the three website the coverage in your area,if it shows that you have full reception,it may be a problem with your phone not picking up the singnal.The price is low due to the fact 3 is still a new company,its more about the new things with what you can do with moblies.You will find that 3g is one of the best networks in places like Austraila,we are going that way and once Three has established itself completely,it won't be so cheap.In fact the other networks are ripping you off because they can.Why do you think they started releasing other deals.
This can be improved be placing a coiled piece of electrical wire in you pocket when you go outside. Improved my reception by 3 bars.Try it!!
i do not know. i think its because they are so much cheaper than other companies and to be cheaper they are putting less money into service. I changed and went to vodafone and i have not had any reception problems and get through to service help straight away. Sometimes quality is better than quantity.
Ive been on the 3 network and so are my family, we are spread across north west and have no problem with 3. We have been with them since 2003. Ring them and ask or is it your mobile thats not working properly
you are right, the network is diabolical, no point having the phone, thats why they come so cheap, you get what you pay for
Because its still relatively new, and they haven't got as many masts yet, so the reception is not up to the level of other mobile suppliers!!
Every handset has different levels of reception. If yours is old or a cheaper model then the reception may not be as good.

3 uses a different frequency than the other networks and does not have as many masts so the reception won't be quite as good.
