Whichever road they take they will be in for a bumpy ride.
Posted on 14/10/2019 20:06 by SlowGilesA far better idea, would be for the description of sites to include the mobile phone signal quality. There is only 4 transmission networks, as a lot of networks use the same transmission systems. All too often, you get to a site and find there is no phone signal.
Before someone says "why would you want a phone signal" , well some of us still have to work and keep in contact with family and friends.
It cant be that hard for the "facilities on site" section to have none / Poor or good for the phone signal quality, after all, the site operators know and can provide the information of the network they use to start things rolling.
Any thoughts, or has this already been raised and decided it was not worth it?

Some sites have, or used to have, an indication of this. I remember one site, no longer in the club's network, that had no signal whatsoever and it was stated in the site details.
Bolton Abbey is a site where there is no mobile reception yet I can’t see mention of it on the website or in the site details leaflet. Perhaps I missed it.
Maybe it's been decided that mobile network coverage changes so quickly that it would be a pain to keep up to date? This is something only the club can answer.

I am sure that such info used to be on the site web page but also there used to be more info about was of interest in the area than there is now.

Sometimes they are a bit over optimistic though BB. A few years ago we needed to have phone contact on a site. I checked the coverage checker and it showed as OK. However, as the site was reasonably remote I phoned the warden to check. The answer was that on the network in question, yes you could get a signal if you went and stood by the gate.☹️
Shame you can't roam in your own country. 6 weeks in France and we always had at least a phone signal and 3G and more often 4G.
Information re the mobile signal for Bolton Abbey is now hidden away in site overview on the booking page.
Posted on 21/10/2019 12:44 by JTCamperI pay annual for the Club WiFi which I believe is £27 (per device). I have never found a site with good WiFi yet....

If that is the case I assume you won't renew next year. That is the good thing about CC WiFi, only those that want it pay for it. As to good, that would depend on your definition of good. I certainly find it adequate. Mine has just run out and I will be renewing next time I visit a CAMC site.
