Awful performance in Havnt/PO9 area

Hello Chaps,
Wondering if someone ‘iD’ could advise on signal issues in the Havant area?

For a couple of months now, I’ve had next to no data service in PO9 1 (anywhere from the A27 in Havant, towards mid-Hayling, basically).

Most recently I’ll have two or three bars of 4G signal and absolutely no data whatsoever until I turn airplane mode on and off again - eSIM, for reference.

Other times, there’ll be ~2bars of signal/ maybe -90>-105dBm RSRP and such little data that I can’t even open a webpage - although there’s bandwidth there, as I can have it connect to a VPN if I try.

Is there ‘heavy utilisation’ on local towers? - The same area on O2 and Vodafone gives slow, but usable data in the same areas.

My workplace at PO9 1QJ has hundreds of people and my issues are replicated with at least a handful of other people on iD (that I’ve spoken to).

Thanks,
Tom

    Afternoon!

     

    PO9 1QJ, PO9 1HZ, PO9 1RY / PO9 2TU would be good examples of black spot/issue area. The first one with most people seeing zero-data at my work.

    Morning Tyler!

    How long’s the issue been going on for? - Seems like quite the wait for a fix, if so…

    PO9 1QJ has become worse than ever recently; so perhaps the tower has higher utilisation here due to the other one up the road having ‘issues’?

    The issues at 1QJ have worsened since the beginning of.. late April beginning of May perhaps?

    Thanks for the updates so far,
    Tom

    Hi there ​@Topper909, we can’t see how long it’s been going on offhand I’m afraid. 

     

    When did you first notice the issues began?

     

    Thanks,

    Tyler
