With 4/5G signal being so poor across the UK, should we not be entitled to compensation from network providers?

> Go to any other country and you get 5G whilst you’re 100ft underground whizzing about in a tube. The reason behind this is actually quite interesting. Gonna assume you’re comparing this to the London Underground where you cannot get any mobile signal at all (although this is slowly changing) The London underground is the oldest underground network in the word. By quite a long way. The oldest parts of it are 163 years old! As you can imagine the Victorian engineers didn’t have mobile signal connectivity as one of the major priorities. Compare this to other metro systems around the world which were built much later and therefore are easier to retrofit modern technology. The other big issue of the London Underground is that parts of it are “deep level” which means the tunnels are 30-60 meters below the surface. Most other metro systems around the world aren’t this deep. Other systems were often built using “cut and cover” where they dig a hole in the road, lay the tracks and cover it up again. The Paris metro for example is only about 6 meters deep. That makes it far easier to ensure mobile coverage. Worth noting that some parts of the London Underground also used the cut and cover method and some parts of the Paris metro are deep level. But in general most of the London Underground is deep level and most of the Paris Metro is just below street-level. They are improving mobile service on the London Underground. The Elizabeth line which is one of the newest parts of the network has mobile and WiFi coverage. And a few of the underground lines have been retrofitted with mobile single, with plans to cover the entire network by the end of this year. https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2026/january/more-stations-and-tunnelled-sections-across-london-s-tube-network-now-connected-to-high-speed-mobile-coverage
