    As far as I can reall Tesco originally used the O2 network, which is now owned by 3.

    ok thanks for the info, in that case it wont make a difference, can you recommend any other network?

    You basically have four options:
    Vodafone
    Meteor/eMobile
    3
    A MVNO which uses the former O2 network (Tesco, 48 or Lycamobile)

    Yep, coverage on Tesco and 48 would be identical.

    I don't think 3 shut down any of O2s equipment though did they, therefore you should still get whatever coverage was there for Tesco/O2 previous to the buyout.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21 Custom Painting


    yes but in that case a 3 coverage should improve after the buyout

    TESCO have covrege of O2, on TESCO/O2 you can use old GSM phone, Three was using only 3G technology and 3G phone. Its different frequency, you can switch to TESCO and coverage should be better. Simcard cost only 2 euro. Buy and tray.

    actually that's a good idea, Ill get a sim with a different number and if it works ill switch my old one :)

    I have been using Tesco Mobile for over 2 years and I'm very happy with their coverage. I have been in the Huntstown area quite often during this time, as I have friends living there, and I did not notice any network issues.
