Just moved into a new office only to discover that my mobile phone does not get a signal (or a very weak one). I am with Utility Warehouse and do not want to switch provider; also there is no wi-fi - any bright ideas, guys?

Thanks in advance!

Or you could set your mobile phone to route calls to your office when not available, or better still a telephone answering service!

ok, the bad news is there is nothing you can do if you dont want to switch supplier

Good news is both orange and Vodafone offer services to boost the signal, it has to go over the current broadband connection and you would need a WIFI connection for the handset to pick up signal.

Hope this helps

Many thanks for the comments and advice - looks as though a GSM booster may be the answer; thanks to Chris Potten.

GSM Signal Boosters can help, however you need a network that alllows support to do this, Utility Warehouse is not a network, is a virtual service provider, however it seams you are now sorted,
