Shitty Phone Signal
Living out in the sticks is pretty nice overall, but the lack of decent network coverage is appalling. I have to place my phone in exactly the right position in my house in order to get signal, and whenever I pick it up to write a text or answer a phone call, the signal instantly drops to nothing. This means that when sending a text, I have to wait for anything up to 5 minutes to re-establish my signal before I can actually SEND the damn thing. Answering a phone call requires me to use the loudspeaker, which is also very annoying.
The reason for all this? The local council thinks that installing a phone mast nearby is a bad idea :facepalm: We have a fucking shitload of space in which a mast could be constructed, but for some reason they just won't do it. Must be because they're all a bunch of old age pensioners who don't even use mobile phones. They obviously don't use the internet either because you're lucky to get 4Mbps out here :thumbsdown:

Fuck im lucky if I get 1Mbps here. Normally its around 0.85 - 0.90Mbps, We can get wireless here but like fuck am I going to pay $80 a month for 1GB of data. Satellite isn't any better price wise. Even cellphone coverage is patchy inside even though the tower is visible from my house.
