Is there any reason why the 4G network coverage has become so poor in the Bradford on Avon, Whiltshire area. It is very difficult to recieve and make calls. The connection drops out part way through a conversation.
The signal was bad enough with 02 hence the change and initially, which would have been 18months ago, things were okay but now it is embarrasing ans ridiculous, especially at night when it gets even worse... if that is possible.
I cover on-call for the local hospital and this service is very poor.
There could be several reasons for the poor 4G network coverage in the Bradford on Avon area:
Network Congestion: Increased usage during peak hours can lead to congestion, affecting call quality and connectivity.
Infrastructure Issues: Maintenance or upgrades to local cell towers can temporarily impact service. If towers have been damaged or are not functioning optimally, it can lead to dropped calls and poor reception.
Interference: Physical obstructions like buildings, trees, or hills can weaken signals, especially in certain areas.
Network Provider Issues: Your new provider might not have as robust a network in that area compared to your previous one.
Local Demand: If the local population has increased or if there are events causing a spike in usage, it might strain the existing infrastructure.
Contacting your service provider to report the issue can help, as they may not be aware of the coverage problems. They might also be able to provide updates on any ongoing improvements or planned enhancements in your area.
