Home is where the signal isn’t: 40% of Brits living with mobile phone blackspots

Global Wireless Solutions’ mammoth study of wireless connectivity in UK homes combines data from extensive programme of engineering-level testing inside properties with results from nationwide poll

• 1 in 14 calls fail during in-home testing of EE’s voice network in London – only 1 in 174 test calls failed on highly reliable O2 voice network
• All of the big 4 UK operators are having difficulty extending their 4G networks into British homes
• Kitchens most liable to be mobile dead-zones and therefore best for quiet family dinners; Liverpool and Cardiff worst UK cities for blackspots in homes
• Brits living in Georgian homes and homes built in the Noughties most likely to feel blackspots are marring their indoor mobile experiences
