I see this topic has finally reached parliament.
Unfortunately the latest, hot-off-the-press data that Ofcom are using to inform the government of the situation is a year old.
However, its worth noting that even then the results are among the lowest available, and that was before the problems we have experienced this year.
Maybe local businesses could form a lobby group and invite Ian Lucas to a meeting to explain why we are having to put up with such terrible service from the phone companies and to answer questions about how he can help and why we are BEING IGNORED!!!!!!Very hit and miss in Wrexham, but lately even in Johnstown. Getting really fed up now. Have spoken to EE and they say that there are masts down and some being worked on. BTW it has been gong on much longer than April 2014 as stated previously. It is also very hit and miss whether EE decide to compensate for lack of service. Seriously considering another provider, but it seems that they are all as bad as each other
Saturday afternoon in town it took me 8 (yes EIGHT) attempts to place a call on EE, just kept getting the network busy tone. Can’t believe a year later this is still going on, it’s an f-ing joke!
My issues with EE/Orange started in January 2014, right after a falling out with them over spam texts and their inability to accurately deal with then. Between January 2014 and May 2014, I was given alsorts of excuses… its your sim card, we’ll send you a new sim. It’s your phone, contact Apple, the mast is broke, it’s being fixed right now. The mast isn’t good enough so we’re erecting a new one in 2 weeks time and the all time favourite, but there aren’t any problems in your area so maybe you’re phone is faulty?
Took me 5 months to get to the point where they were in breach of contract and were told this and allowed me out of my contract free of charge. O2? No better. Vodafone however, is great. Always have a signal. Always have 3g. Can’t complain.
However, it is well worth noting that this issue isn’t specific to Wrexham but is actually national. I have family in Birmingham who cannot take or accept a call without hanging out of a bedroom window and they are on EE. Worse still, it’s my partners parents and they are both pensioners, with his mother having the capability of falling out of said window and breaking something. EE don’t care. They never have and they never will
Not everyone wants a landline. Maybe you should have a landline and use that rather than whinging about your signal?

I am with TalkTalk and can’t get 3G in Llay, sometimes I even have to walk into the garden just to get a mobile signal
