Letter: Shropshire has worse mobile phone reception than Everest
Letter: You can now use your ordinary mobile phone for 3G calls and surf the net to your heart's content on the summit of Everest. Why isn't the service as good in Shropshire?
Letter: I have just heard on the news that the Nepalese have installed a new wireless network that covers the summit of Everest. You can now use your ordinary mobile phone for 3G calls and surf the net to your heart's content.
My experience here in Shropshire on the O2 network, having travelled south to Clun and North to Ellesmere, is somewhat different, having no signal in both locations whatsoever. This has now given our county a new accolade: Shropshire - more remote than Everest!
