We are aware of a signal issue that is affecting some of our customers in the Newhaven area. Our mast had to be removed in April 2024, as this was requested by the landowner.
Our engineers began looking for a new location as soon as we were made aware our equipment had to be removed. We have located two potential areas for a new mast and are currently conducting surveys to make sure the locations will be suitable for the equipment.
Pending a positive outcome from the surveys, we can start legal steps to legally acquire the land from the site provider and start building the equipment needed for the new mast.
We will keep you updated on this post.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused. In the meantime, you may be able to use WiFi Calling to make and receive calls and texts over a WiFi connection.
For information on who can use WiFi Calling and how to set up this service, please see our EE WiFi Calling: All you need to know, article.

Hello
I have 5G on my phone. It's been 2 weeks and I have less than 5 Mbps (using fast.com) in my flat. I can barely use Internet. Would you provide any alternative whilst you solve the problem?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thank you

Hi,
I reported a problem last week in this area EH64QQ. I was told there is no problem but just found the above. I can't make it receive calls in my home which is a huge issue as I work from home.
What can we do in the short term?

Anytime you have indoor coverage issues for whatever reason, you can use WiFi-calling to continue using your phone as normal.
The service supports inbound & outbound direct-dialled voice calls, sending & receiving text messages, and doesn't need any apps.
