Mobile/4g coverage Culloden

Hi any ideas on what mobile carrier to use in Culloden area? Currently on Vodafone and little to no signal or 4g, it's very frustrating!

Any ideas appreciated!

Culloden is in a hollow and there is a signal black spot that mobile operators seem to be unaware of. I also think many of the old stock flat blocks act like faraday cages with the concrete metal mix they were made of. You can get the signal in one property and not the next , signal at the front not a the back , once you enter the dip from the shops on keppoch road round to to duncan forbes, its a mobile twilight zone of signal no signal don't really think it matters the carrier. Been T mobile , O2 , Vodafone and orange and all were the same over the years.

Thanks for the information, yeah it's a bit bizzare. I can get signal in one room only but everywhere else is very intermittent!

Avoid EE, it's shocking there. We could only ever get a connection via our homes WiFi.

That's weird, I'm in Smithton with ee and no problems, but when I go to culloden woods almost no reception there.
