Patchy mobile phone coverage in village

[AndrewKM]

Outside coverage is patchy. Inside it is poor. Who should I talk to about this, with the possible solution to erect a mobile phone mast in the village?

Getting a new mast erected is a long process, particularly if there is opposition to any planning application. You might want to consider procuring some PAYG SIMs to establish if any other network is superior in your location. 👍

Get your Parish / Local council to look into the rural network upgrade programme, which is funded by DCMS and the 4 MNO

Another guide to help. 

Wifi Calling is your best bet at home if you have a broadband wifi connection.

Your chance of getting a mast is slim, although there are things networks can do to improve things.
