Tesco Mobile coverage

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

Google results from a few years ago say that Tesco Mobile has the exact same coverage as O2 (some bulk buy discount myth).

 

Yesterday some O2 person cold called me (sniffing out numbers on the network?) trying to sell me a contract & told me that Tesco only has access to 1 in 4 phone masts on O2's network?

 

Anyone know if this is true or just an attempt to encourage a deal? I see nothing on O2/Tesco sites to suggest such a limitation.

Edit as I see it's done now.


Yeah - I realised as soon as Iposted it that I'd been a little bit of a pra* !!

 

If in the end it does all turn out to be bull (but I don't think the LG agent was spinning a line) - then I don't care anyway. Tesco haven't a clue and their agents are as much in the dark as anyone - as are their technical people. Moving seems a better option anyway.............. Now done as the SIM will be here tomorrow and the Tesco contract ceases the following day slight_smile

Ahem - that's from Tesco Direct.

 

You need to look at what phones Tesco MOBILE sell - and for LG it's only the L50.

I know what I posted. The reason I posted it was because, if you scroll down, they are offering the phone with a Tesco Pay & Go 4G sim.

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2
