Buy a cheap sim to check your new network of choice. Locally I can choose between slow, slow, erratic and more erratic.

I doubt it. I think that there are a few issues that they are dealing with. Firstly they are trying to replace 3g kit ready for the turn off. In my area I can still see my phone range from H, H+, 4g and even a hint of 5g and they have been working in my area for over a year. They have, like other networks, been very successful in selling home and office broadband. This has created problems in installing more capacity to cope. I would not expect 3 to admit it but I really think that they don't have the engineering or supply chain capacity to everything for everyone now.

Do you give everyone something or a few everything?

I think that the enforced replacement of Chinese - Huawei - kit for political reasons has also hit Three more than the other networks.

The last representative I had a webchat with said they're still waiting for planning permission I don't know why you need planning permission to work on a mast already there unless they want to put up a new one

It may be that they want to instal equipment that was not included in the original planning application.
