I live in Manchester. I worked in Urmston which is about 3.5 miles from where I live, and that's about 8 miles from the city centre. My first mobile was with Virgin. The reception out and about was above average. I did find a few place in Manchester where the phone tended to be searching for signal.

In the shop where I worked, the phone almost died when I entered. It was not possible to make or take calls there. Orange and Vodaphone both worked fine with a full signal.

I now use Orange and Three. Both of these are excellent. I did notice whilst using Virgin that the phone needed charging a lot more.

Hope this helps.
