Problem is that I've thought about moving to Cornwall in the autumn and coverage there might be even worse there than here in north London.

I'm currently with Vodafone and their coverage map shows quite a few blank areas in Cornwall - particularly on the Lizard peninsula which is where I'd like to move if possible.

Hi Madeleine

In case you haven't seen it, this site links to all the coverage maps. It looks as though you need to pick a precise location to be sure, especially in the South and East of the peninsula.

Given that T-mobile and Orange have now merged into EE, that's probably what I would gamble on, in the absence of local knowledge.
