With over 99% UK voice coverage and more base stations (for enhanced reception) than any other UK network, there’s less chance you’ll get a network busy signal; plus month-on-month monitoring shows our call connection rate is better than any other operator. This means we can commit to our Network Performance Promise: if we do drop a call, we’ll credit up to one minute back to your account if it’s redialled within five minutes.

why do mobile signals fail?

coverage where it matters most

You can also be sure of the best coverage where it matters most for business, near railways, roads, airports, conference centres and business parks  - for instance, we're the only operator enhancing our network for Voyager trains (which run on the Cross Country and Virgin Train routes).

To check UK signal coverage for up to three locations, use our postcode signal checker.

the largest integrated 3G/2.5G UK data network

We have the largest integrated high-speed data network in the UK, with 3G for 94% of the population and 2G for over 99%. You can get on with work in more places throughout the world as we have the most high-speed data roaming agreements (home and abroad) of any UK operator. And we offer WiFi in an ever increasing number of places.

Plus we’re rolling out 3G+ (HSDPA) - an even faster variant of 3G. Orange 3G+ is already available to over 77% of the UK population, with 82% of the population expected to be covered by the end of 2009.
