    Oh I see where you are coming from. I was less concerned with the Tax implications than the complete inadequacy of their mobile network to cater for the rather extreme demands of a blue light service.

    started a topic Mobile phone networks in the UK

    Mobile phone networks in the UK

    Are there any that are paying some UK tax, using UK workers rather than barely english speaking overseas call centres, that actually have a signal that works sometimes and where "customer services" doesn't involve a 3 hour wait to get through?

    Just wondered like.

Working...
