Ofcom, the mobile network regulator, have released their own 3G coverage maps, based on data supplied to them by the networks for 31st December 2008.  This gives you a good comparison between the networks on who and where you will find 3G networks.  Now, the biggest thing to remember is that in the areas of white on the maps, you may still have coverage, but only at 2G or 2.5G.  These maps at least give you a good guide to where you can be sure you definitely won’t be getting those nice fast download speeds.

Head here for the maps.

Update: Another option for UK coverage maps is GSMWorld, which can be accessed here.
