I live about a mile from the town and there is a plan to put a 5G mast, the sooner the better.

I have unlimited Calls, Text and 100GB of 5G data for £36.44 a month.


Another £5 I can get unlimited

Is that with a phone too otherwise it's very expensive?

I think I pay £22 a month for unlimited everything for sim only with my provider and I'm sure there are cheaper deals if I was to look?

Im doing my hardest to avoid 5G because the ultra wideband freq can cause health problems and thats what I think is going on now. This garbage is being deployed EVERYWHERE and people are having problems from it....

Your dizzy symptoms are caused by your obsession with stupid conspiracy fairy tales.

5G is not dangerous. Please either grow up or go and post your idiotic nonsense somewhere else.

Hang on . . . what if 5G causes headaches because it interferes with the 'Gates' chip inserted via the Covid jab? :erm:

:D

Sorry if this has already been answered but as an existing ultimate oomph customer what is the procedure to get my SIM 5G enabled? Would a call to CS be a waste of time and need to wait it out? SIM as most will be currently on EE 4G

Re: Any news on 5G
 
the signal checker says my home has some access to 5G which it does. seems to come and go to be honest but i got 140mb on a speed check when it was on. all very odd as it says it has very good 5G access the next road along haha. i wonder if that will be fixed with a further tower or will they eventually increase the "power" of the existing one.

Either way its better than o2 as i never got 5G in my hosue at all on o2

I dont care if we ever have access to 5G .. In my opinion its dangerous and should be avoided!! (The Ultra wideband tier (24-39Ghz))

Im not trying to make anyone mad im just saying I dont wanna be exposed to that!!

Doctor Bob said on youtube in his second video after the one that says viruses do not spread and the covid vaccine can give you a 3rd leg

As someone who only uses his phone for calls & texts, no email, streaming movies, gaming and uploading stuff to various social media sites . . what does 5G offer that 4G doesn't?

Is it just faster (by varying degree) depending on location and provider, is it more secure, better value for money?

Yes it is faster
Do not think it is any more or less secure
Yes it is better value for money as package prices do not change ( from what I have seen ) so more speed when you can get it is better value

For you it is pointless

Oh I definitely don't need (or want) it, just wondered what all the fuss and urgency was about ;)

It is one of them. Most people will only see the benefit when they run a speed test on their mobile device. I do not know many that download huge files on mobile, social media and streaming will not really improve with the greater bandwidth . The only ones who will benefit are those who use mobile data as their main BB for their home network, in that environment the difference could be substantial
