Reception around here can be a bit patchy sometimes (my wife also has an iPhone 4 but she's with O2 and has full signal in the places I don't).
3G is excellent though, and you can use your iPhone as a wireless hotspot with 3 for free.

My girlfriend and all her family are with 3. It is a fucking useless network! 99% of the time they're out of signal or struggling for signal.
Had to start using whatsapp instead of texts to my G/F too as 3 were mixing up texts or only receiving half of what I wrote etc etc.
That said, when she is in signal, her internet is much better than T-Mobile (even on 3G)

I found 3 shit in the early days, in the last 2 years or so they've got there act together I'd say. When I first got my 3G dongle with them I couldn't get a signal anywhere, always dropping out, then about 6months into the contract I had full signal everywhere. I had one of those mahoosive nec e313s when they first started out as well, they were shit then 
Only shit thing I can think of is there customer service.

If you ever get the sodding cash back aye, I've got about £100 tracked dating from last year and still haver seen a penny. Odd because they've paid out before.

I get signal every where except down stairs at the front of my house.
The moment I go upstairs, or to the back of the house, signal is fine.
Also 3G is faster on my 4 than a friend of mine who is on O2 with his 4s.

They aren't shit but they aren't great either, o2 are much better IMO, lad I work with has the identical phone to me and is on o2 and always has better signal than me.
