According to a new Q&A released by VodafoneThree, the MOCN servers will recognize both Three and Vodafone SIM cards and allow them to access supported towers accordingly. It won’t matter if a Vodafone tower was previously used by a Three SIM card, or vice versa.
Things have cleared up a bit now, along with a timeline, and it seems to be a significant advancement for all customers. The best part is that it won’t cost anything extra, it will be free, and you won’t even need to do anything.
Hey folks! Keep an eye out for the exciting developments coming up as a result of the merger between Vodafone and Three.
The VodafoneThree is looking to implement Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN) technology to share the radio networks of the two former companies “within a few months.”
This temporary solution aims to expedite the “roaming access” process, with future plans to consolidate the expanded system into a single core.
It looks like there will be a significant improvement in signals, especially in areas where one service was weaker than the other. We also heard that whether you have a Vodafone or Three SIM card, your phone will automatically choose the nearest tower for the best connection. Although we are still in the dark about exactly how this will work.
Following the official announcement of the Vodafone and Three merger and the establishment of the new VodafoneThree network, speculation arose about what this would mean for customers of both carriers.
The forecast is that you will notice a significant improvement in connectivity by the end of 2025, regardless of whether you’re on a Vodafone or Three contract. And it won’t matter what type of phone you have, whether it’s an iPhone or one of the top Android devices.
Hello everyone! Here’s the news that the Vodafone and Three merger will boost signal quality for customers from both networks. It appears that the new company has begun installing technology on towers from both brands that will ensure phones always seek the strongest signal, regardless of the SIM card or device.
With the MOCN technology in place, connections will be directed to each brand’s primary networks until they are eventually unified further down the line.
It’s worth noting that customers of other VodafoneThree subsidiaries, such as Smarty and VOXI, are also set to benefit from the “roaming access” initiative.
While the implementation of the MOCN architecture is a complex process, customers will not have to tinker with their device settings or switch SIM cards.
