Three's 3G Connection Issue

I'm not too sure if it's something to do with my phone or with Three's 3G but I have noticed that when I have entered its 3G only locations my phone will do the following things

•H+ data disconnects for 5 seconds then reconnects back then the data stays on for the remainder of the time being connected.

•H+ disconnects, signal bars constantly change about showing it is hopping on other 3G masts then finally connects to the nearest one.

•H+ disconnects, then transitions to EE emergency calls only on 4G from the same mast for about 2 minutes until connects back to Three's 3G for the remainder of its time being connected.

•It takes an average of 10 seconds to start dialling (record longest time 20 seconds! Thats even from three to another three mobile number!)

Im not too sure if Three's 3G infrastructure is suddenly going downhill or it's my phone acting up only on 3G, I have also noticed that when looking on Three's webpage from 2013 (before volte introduced) it said that HD calls work but whenever I call a three number on 3G it stays on narrowband so I'm guessing they decommisioned the HD voice codec on UMTS.
