Hi all

for the last week or so I have been having a lot of trouble making and receiving calls, mostly when I'm at home. I will sometimes get a text saying I have a missed call and my phone has been next to me and not rung. When I try to make a call it just disconnects within a second or two. I send texts and sometimes they get there straight away, sometimes in a few hours and some times not at all. I cant even ring 150 to report it !!

I'm on Orange btw

I was about to ask Do you live in Seacombe by any chance until i seen that is where you are.
Ive been having the same problem, 52 attempts it took me to ring 150. Ridiculous!!

Finally found out that there is a fault with the mast that is located on top of the bingo in borough road.
All they said was that they are aware of it but could not tell me when it will be fixed!!!

Ah that explains why its worse at home then !!

Think I'm still gonna go the orange shop at the weekend and complain. Not much point in paying a contract if I cant use the bloody thing at home !!

Thanks for the explanation smile
