I was speaking with a staff member in a local mobile shop recently and apparently there are still many issues with damaged masts following the storm. 

BT8 is one of the effected areas.

Not sure when the issues will be resolved. 

My signal is also very poor, at many times phone is nearly unusable.

When is this being fixed

It's been like this for months

1 bar signal can't call anymore

The '4g' < 2mbps and completely unusable.

Bt15 most of belfast seems to be like this. Its a major city of UK and only city here.

Why is this not a priority?

Hey there ​@Ross Edwards, we’re very sorry to hear that.

When did you first notice this work on-going please?

What phone do you have?

Has it improved at all since you noticed the work was happening, or been the same/worst?

Thanks,

Tyler

Hi Tyler

No.what would have changed in the time being?

It's been like this from about February March

I can't ring anyone in my house or outside my house

If I walk 500m away it's fine

Ridiculous it's belfast can you sort the issue.

It seems you've far too little bandwidth.

I get 2-3mbs of Internet thatsb4g????

Any update ?

There was a storm months ago youve still not got service fixed in belfast.

What is the ETA??

Hi ​@Ross Edwards  sorry to hear that the data coverage isn’t great for you. There is, at times, heavy usage in this local area. As a result, you may experience varying data speeds depending on how many customers are connecting to our network via your closest mast.

We’re always working to improve our network and aim to provide the best experience possible.

A reboot will refresh your connection to the mast and should improve coverage for you. 

Sian are you joking ?

Its been about 5 months.... you think ive not restarted my phone

This needs resolved in belfast ASAP.

Its 2025 I cant make phone calls it connects and no one can hear me because the signal os so poor.

The 4g is 2mbps far slower than any 3g ive ever had.

We need a refund here this is beyond ridiculous.

I need to get another sim. And this needs ro be covered by ID you cannot provide a contractual service and fail to meet any standards here.

Ive called multiple times same spiel restart your phone there was a 3g switch off...nothing we can do.

I bought the phone through ID directly.

Its always 1 or 2 bars anywhere in belfast and the signal os always terrible since february.... atleast.

Please can someone contact me about this i cannot make.phone calls people cannot here me

Ive been using whatsapp for months

Hi ​@Ross Edwards 

Thanks for getting back to us. 

We are very sorry to hear you feel this way. 

We do provide information on the coverage for the service via our website in order for customers to review availability before joining. 

Unfortunately, we would not be able to provide an additional SIM as this would also have the same level of coverage. 

If you wish, we can take a look at your account further via private message. Please let us know if you would like to proceed.

Yes obviously.

I cant use my phone becauee your network is not willing to upgrade the bandwidth in Belfast.

When is this going to be fixed.

Ive spoken to several id members.

Its the same issue.

Can this not be  prioritised?

I cannot ring anyone 

I have 1 bar ar all times

It takes 30 seconds  to connect to a call

Any call I manage to get through after 40 seconds  its unbearable.

Sorry can you hear me

Ok after weeks of back.and forth and no resolution you've just closed the ticket???

Can anyone actually help.me i have 1 bar at all times arpund my house from.februsry 2025 

Ive been told to update my settings try turning my.phone off and on?

Like its been 7 months now ive tried everything.

Ive been emailing and messaging about this from.April!!!

Why is there 0 attwmpt at resolution just absolutely ridiculous questions like have a i updated or reset my phone on the past 7 months..... the issue is with the service mot the phone ive 2 contracts both have the same problem from February completely different phones 

I had chased for this for weeks and they have done.

They tried ringing me 2 times once on friday and I cant answer calls as ive advised. That is the problem

Once on Saturday and I cant answer the call

Then they closed the ticket as resolved!

Can you escalate this immediately to someone who can actually check or test in the area please

I dont understand how my issue can be i cant make or receive calls in large parts of belfsst and after you decide to call me. I csnt take the call. When I hit accept it just tries to connect

Like is checking anything about the problem thats going on.

If im told to try restarting my phone one more time its going in the toilet lol

I am also experiencing the same issues as Ross, in fact, not able to receive a call at all. I have tried im Belfast and in a town and neither times has it shown anyone ringing me when I tested with my girlfriend. This is a regional issue, not a user issue. Please focus on resolving this issue for us users as we are left in the dark for calls, which in this era cannot be allowed. Otherwise, will be reviewing and cancelling my contract
