Mobile Network 3 - Arrrrgh >:(
I'v got a bit of a situation at the moment. A few months ago I decided I needed a new phone, something I do quite regularly, I think its because I always want the latest of everything, but thats not the point!
Anyway, I wanted this new phone. I was already with vodafone and with 3 being a new network and all the buzz about it, I decided to investigate further. I went into my local 3 store and got all of the information that I thought would be relevant. I discovered that if I switched networks, I would get the usual €100 or so free call credit, would be able to keep my old number and would benefit hugely in terms of the cost of calls and texts. According to Network 3, they have 87% video service coverage all around Ireland and 99.5% calls and text service coverage. This was all great and needless to say, I then switched to 3. Check out the "coverage" section of their website three.ie
Once I get set up, I discover that you will have full coverage 95% of the time, but there's one catch, you must live in the middle of town, something which they obviously failed to tell me. This is where I get annoyed, it's fine when i'm at college but when I do make the journey home, I lose contact with everybody. Sure enough, my calls and texts are much cheaper, this is of course if I have coverage to send them!
I'm seriously thinking about switching back to Vodafone but just can't let go of the cheap calls and texts. Since I moved to 3, I have been saving at least €20 a month on mobile top-up (maybe because I don't have the coverage to make calls!). Anyway I don't know what to do, suppose we'll see what time brings!
