3 sim unable to connect to vodafone network

_Dzippy
Fledgling

Please advise.  My 2 year old sim is not able to connect to a Vodafone network.  I know there are yechnical issues with the 3 network at postcode FY2 ***, but I assumed the Vodafone netwirk would not be affected.  I use 5G for remote working, so i need a quick solution.  Please be so kind as to advise.

 

I do not have or wish to have a broadband connection at this address as it is a short term rental.

 

Thank you and kind regards,

 

Paul

A Three SIM can't connect to the vodafone network, or vice versa.  Instead the masts are upgraded to Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN) which allows Three SIM's to "see" the vodafone mast as a Three one.  Your device will still show you are connected to Three's network.

You can read more about it here - VodaThree MOCN 

It sounds like there is a problem in your area, maybe they are currently upgrading the masts to MOCN, which does appear to result in some down time ☹️
