HTC Wildfire S - poor signal and no mobile data

I have recently taken out a contract and was persuaded to take a Wildfire S. My first issue is that it has very poor signal compared with my work Blackberry which is also on Vodafone. I cannot use the Wildfire in the house or in many other buildings. Even outdoors I often find I have no signal on the Wildfire when I have a decent signal on the Blackberry. Frankly, at the moment I feel it is not fir for purpose but is this normal or could I have a faulty phone?

 

My second problem is that, recently, I have found myself unable to get any mobile data. I've only used a very small amount of my allowance but, when wireless is not available, I am unable to update any of the internet applications; most throw up an error message suggesting I switch mobile data on which it already is. I made no changes that would explain this.

 

Both issues mean that the phone is often of no use whatsoever.
