Network change from Three to Vodafone

I've recently noticed that my reception has been terrible at home, I can't make calls and I don't receive them. I'm now on the Vodafone network not the Three network I used to use, my reception has dropped. I've used smarty for about 3 years. Has the recent merger with Vodafone caused removal of Three cells or has the naming just changed? I have tried Vodafone in the past but reception was terrible so I moved to Three, I thought that there was a few years before they merged the networks?

@AdrianD_2007405 Not aware that there have been any major changes just yet. The merger (according to Vodafone) is due to formally complete during the first half of 2025 after the CMA approval in early Dec 2024 and so you shouldn't expect any radical change right now.

Has there been any major construction in your area that may be shielding the electromagnetic waves from masts in general?

The merging of Vodafone's and Three's networks hasn't started yet.. they are still totally separate.

No you are not, Vodafone and Three currently do not share masts/networks.
