The study surveyed three streets all within a few minutes&#8217; walk of Covent Garden, on a weekday evening. The results showed that more than one in four data tests across <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> failed outright.<\/p>\n<p>Even when the networks worked, the mobile broadband speed was found to be unreliable or slow &#8211; typically coming in below 15Mbps (Megabits per second). Interestingly both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> delivered the strongest performance here, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> tended to fight over the slowest two spots. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> was also the operator with the greatest proportion of tests that returned no data connectivity at all (between 95-100%).<\/p>\n<p>However, most of those tests took place at peak (busy) times, but when the same study was conducted during off-peak (less busy) periods all four mobile networks were said to have performed well. In other words, many of the issues could perhaps be put down to problems of network congestion rather than signal coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The trade association that represents the UK&#8217;s major mobile networks, Mobile UK, acknowledges that London&#8217;s mobile phone connectivity &#8220;<em>continues to lag frustratingly behind other international hubs<\/em>&#8220;. The situation has now been confirmed by separate independent testing by users of SignalTracker&#8217;s app, which similarly examined the streets around both Covent Garden and St Paul&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>Of our signal strength and download speed readings in Covent Garden, 29% measured download speeds of less than 15 Mbps. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> Three recorded the lowest download speeds. In the City of London near St Paul\u2019s, SignalTracker data suggested that 44% of all recorded tests measured under 15 Mbps<\/em>,&#8221; said Laura Sear of SignalTracker.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"padding: 0px; width: 100%; border-radius: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2026-uk-internet-statistics\/SignalTracker-central-London-mobile-performance.webp\" alt=\"SignalTracker-central-London-mobile-performance\"><\/p>\n<p>One of the key problem areas is known to be infrastructure planning, including a lack of resources in local planning departments and other things like the <strong>Notices to Quit<\/strong> (NTQ) planning measure. The latter has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2026\/09\/vodafone-uk-warn-london-planning-rules-forcing-100-mobile-sites-offline-in-2026.html\">been in the news<\/a> a couple of times recently after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> and Vodafone separately complained that it sometimes forces them to take their cell sites offline (masts and other rooftop sites), often without first being given enough time to ensure an appropriate replacement site.<\/p>\n<p>The above is a particular problem when it impacts rooftop sites on existing buildings, such as when the property owner seeks to renovate, redevelop or demolished a building. However, as we&#8217;ve said before, mobile operators can hardly expect to hold much sway over major property developments, particularly when they\u2019re often paying only relatively small rental sums to the landowners (holding up major developments at huge cost doesn\u2019t seem like the fairest of balances).<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, mobile infrastructure isn\u2019t installed in a vacuum and planning authorities also have to consider other issues, such as public opinion, visual impact, safety and so forth etc.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>A government (DCMS) spokesperson said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fast, reliable digital infrastructure is fundamental to a growing economy, keeping people connected wherever they live, work or commute.
