All things being equal, is iD customer Nerwork performance speed & coverage exactly the same as customers of 3 direct? Or 3's customers get bandwith priority over iD customers? Fyi Smarty confirmed that 3 customers get bandwith priority.

EE are overpriced and offer poor coverage where I live (I live in Swansea).
Anyway, I use Smarty and have had no issues with my service. Fastest speed test was over 800MB, the slowest being over 400MB. I also have an iD mobile pay monthly phone that my son uses and can't say he has experienced any issues either.
I think all MVNO network have a lower priority but it must rarely be an issue otherwise they wouldn't remain in business.

Objectively, I couldn’t say - however, subjectively having used three UK for a number of years and then switched to iD Mobile, I haven’t noticed any real difference.
If you want great mobile network performance, then consider using EE - if you can live with their prices.
Thanks andewhite. So do you consider that iD customer Nerwork performance speed & coverage exactly the same as customers of 3 direct?

That could very well be different for iD as they’re independent of three, whereas SMARTY is three’s budget offering and wholly owned by three.
