You can use Bt infinities fibre optic service. I don't have cables laid either. Bt install a modem which then connects to fibre optic at your exchange. I attain 38mb download and 9 upload this way.

Ref your 3G on your phone.

Try removing the sim and cleaning it.

Also
Check the mast status in your area as one may be undergoing repair or service.

Getting a replacement sim may help.

If your phone is going into 2g then your gonna experience slow to useless Internet connection.

Lastly your phone itself may be at fault.
Ensure your software is up to date.

I'm not very au fait with this kind of problem, when Adam Temp appears he's most likely to be able to advise.  But try this just in case it works:

 

In settings General have you got cellular on?  In the menu that appears when you press cellular is enable 3G on? 

 

Then click on cellular data network in that page and try reset settings at the bottom of that page.
