Now on the network coverage section of the O2 website it states signal for making and receiving calls is very good, and on that basis I purchased a contract phone with O2. I'm lucky to get more than one bar at any time in the house or anywhere in town, rendering my iPhone about as much use as an iPod touch.
Why do O2 state there is a high level of service in my area when clearly there isn't?!
I've downloaded tugo in the hope I might be able to receive calls at home but even that is a touch and go app with lots of bugs still to be fixed.

check your full postcode on the live status page for issues. http://status.o2.co.uk
But a quick check shows no issues for the general area.
I would assume that you have 3g enabled? try with it off as 2g should give a good indoor signal. settings > general> mobile data > enable 3g toggle off and you may get a lot more bars.

it shows 3g900 but only 2 bars for that area hence my suggestion.
If 2g is poor then report a possiable mast issue to o2 as the 2g mast is very close to that partial postcode on the coverage checker.

Have you tried the TuGo app to make/receive calls over wifi?

we live near Dock rd. my wife & I spend our time running round the garden trying to keep a call going. Its been the same for TEN YEARS.
Warboys on the other hand has 4g and lots of it.
we would like even 2g. The mast cant cope.
