Louth area: Meteor v Three mobile internet coverage

Currently with Meteor, thinking of switching to Three for android phone with flexi max package. Three offers more data per month than meteor for same price. I don't know anyone on Three network. What is their call coverage and internet coverage for mobile like in Louth area.
Cheers.

Just outside Drogheda here and in terms of data speeds, Meteor is miles better than 3. Use Speedtest.net on both connections at the same time of day if you get the chance and compare from there. Call coverage from both seems to be fine too.

Ye beardo, gettin that impression from blogs/articles on 3. Seems like their data network is pretty crap and their customer service is even worse. 3 offers me 15GB data monthly with new smartphone while Meteor offers only 5GB for same price, however from what I've read, I'd be better off getting reliable 5GB than a 'bit here, bit there' 15GB
Cheers!

If its just for casual browsing, email, internet and YouTube etc then 5gb is more than enough. However is you are going to tether at home maybe to laptop or something else you should try a free 3 sim, nothing to lose by ordering one!
