WIandVAinWA 10 Posted August 25, 2012 Hi there, Just wondering which mobile networks have good coverage in South West (we are thinking to move to Bunbury) for calls and also mobile broadband ? Any advice is much appreciated!

Freckleface 3,066 Posted August 26, 2012 I prefer Telstra because I travel a lot and it seems to have the best coverage Aust wide. You could try posting on Perth Poms as well - there is a link at the bottom of this page. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rossmoyne 3,191 Posted August 28, 2012 Telstra is the only reliable telco with coverage out of Perth metro area. Optus isnt too bad in the south west, but doesnt work in all areas once you get away from Bunbury/Busselton. Voda/3 - forget it! ......Just trying to be helpful so don't shoot me down if my personal views do not coincide with yours! :animal-dog: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rossmoyne 3,191 Posted August 28, 2012 Oh and Virgin is pretty useless away from Perth too. ......Just trying to be helpful so don't shoot me down if my personal views do not coincide with yours! :animal-dog: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WIandVAinWA 10 Posted September 1, 2012 Many thanks for your replies! Telstra will be the best for us.

Guest goody269 Posted September 1, 2012 We live 28k south of Bunbury and have no problem with Optus, my wife uses Telstra , almost as good coverage, but avoid at all costs Vodaphone their coverage is minimal and other than in the centre of town you will always be looking for a high spot to get a signal.
