Top 10 worst phone signal spots for London commuters revealed

London's most reliable mobile networks have been revealed in a new study by Global Wireless Solutions (GWS).

Three was crowned the best network for commuters who like to talk, securing joint-first most reliable for voice calls, and becoming the clear winner with highest quality calls.

Vodafone was titled the best network for standard internet access (3G), followed by 02, Three and EE.

The study found 82.0% of Vodafone users had access to 3G throughout the commute, receiving the fastest download speeds and most reliable internet.

GWS' engineers found that EE users were offered the best fastest internet (4G), followed by Vodafone, O2 and Three.

EE users could download music, pictures and videos the fastest.

GWS engineers carried out high-level tests while travelling back and forth on the ten most popular commuting routes into and out of London.

The top 10 worst-connected commuter stations based on the number of voice and data failures are:

10. Ockenden station- 26 failures

9. Kidbrooke station- 27 failures

8. Cricklewood station- 27.5 failures

7. St. Alban's City station- 33 failures

6. Hendon station- 33.5 failures

5. Elstree and Borehamwood station- 36 failures

4. Upminster station- 42 failures

3. Kentish Town station- 43 failures

2. Radlett station- 53 failures

1. St. Pancras station- 99 failures

St. Pancras was by far the worst connectivity of all of the stations tested, with GWS’ engineers experiencing an average of 99 voice and packet data failures.

Paul Carter, CEO of GWS, commented:

"It’d be great to see networks, rail operators and station-masters taking the lead on improving connectivity for commuters – rather than having to be dragged into the 21st Century kicking and screaming," he added.
