Launch a review of mobile coverage across the UK & plan for improvement

Closed 49 signatures

What the petition asks

Launch a full review of mobile network provision in the UK, including looking into legally binding coverage standards, investing in low-coverage areas, and publishing a timetable for improvement.

Mobile coverage in parts of the UK remains poor and inconsistent, leaving many rural and urban areas with unreliable services. This can affect safety, business, and daily life. A full review could help hold providers accountable, set minimum coverage standards, and ensure fair access to reliable mobile networks nationwide.
