Hi guys, well I finally got my problems with o2 sorted, I think, but I now have a great 100gb plan and a very poor mobile signal in the house, often none at all, I think I’m in a mobile signal dead spot, if I drive just a couple of hundred meters I can get 3/4g, and four bars. Now my question, what would you recommend by way of a signal booster, I’ve looked at the o2 ones but the price is a bit strong, I know the adage, you get what you pay for, but I would appreciate some guidance with this before I commit.

If it is wifi calling capable, then try that first. All info here https://www.o2.co.uk/connectivity/wifi-and-4g-calling If you have a compatible phone you will need to call O2 to get it enabled on your account.

You will only be allowed a signal booster with O2 if your are a business customer. (Sorry about that)

If you buy one from any other outlet, it won't work as O2 won't activate it.

It looks as if a change of network, might be the only answer.

Can your phone use WiFi calling?
