Anyone want to guess when SMARTY will offer 5G, seems like they've been saying soon forever.

i know the website says soon but im using a smarty sim and i can get 5G on it so unless they havent updated info some areas i can get 5G see speeds from 200mbps to 100mbps
 
I got this reply on another forum, is yours Android? 3 coverage map showed coverage last November but then took it off. :(

Wish I'd known, we could have both got a free month.
 
Would love if you could share some screenshots of CellMapper or Network Signal Guru, I took the Smarty SIM around 2 5G tested locations today and no 5G, maybe your on a trial list.
Can you select an option such as prefer 5G? I have mine selected as prefer 4G. Just wondered if it would make a difference.

I picked up 5G yesterday on SMARTY in Edinburgh and there are only a few patches of 5G on Three's coverage page.

There's been three different users on different forums posting they have been able to get 5G on SMARTY, not one has replied which platform.

Not bothered about any app. SMARTY CS take days to respond.
 
I wonder if some Smarty sims are being seen as Three PAYG on Three's network?

I spoke to Smarty recently about 5G trials and they said non are happening yet, they are trialing the account app though.
Maybe i know this is done with giffgaff; each O2 SIM has its own sort of 'Code'. If you have an older SIM the 2 will most likely be a 1. O2 Contract is 4GPp2, O2 Pay&Go is 4GPg2, O2 Pay Monthly Mobile Broadband: 4GBb2, Pay&Go Broadband: 4GPb2 and finally giffgaff is 4GGg2.

Wonder if there is is a similar system with three? Since Smarty & Three is the exact same company and the exact same HQ.
