Ready for the school holiday rush? Your mobile signal might not be!

Mark's Remarks
June 28, 2021

The next phase of lockdown easing might have been pushed back to 19 July, but that’s perfect timing for the school holidays.

All signs point towards another busy summer for hotels and the hospitality industry, especially with current travel restrictions to destinations around the world in place.

That’s great news for UK hotels and hospitality venues as we head into the school summer holidays…

Except if you haven’t sorted out your signal problems.

That patchy signal has been a lingering doubt in the back of your mind for a while, no doubt.

“I’ll get it sorted eventually”, you tell yourself – but could it be costing you now?

Picture this. You pack up the car, get the kids all set, drive three hours, and arrive at your destination. Check into the hotel, pop all of the suitcases in the room, sit down for a minute and ring your mum to let her know you’ve arrived… call failed.

No signal.

You’d be pretty miffed. Sure, the WIFI is fine but now you’ve got to find a way to get in touch with your technophobe parents who have just about got the hang of their mobile phones.

I dread to think of the reaction of teenagers when you tell them they can’t text their mates, either…

It creates a problem where there simply doesn’t need to be one!

You’ve made sure everything else is ready – the rooms are all sorted, staff all prepared, and you’ve given the reception a facelift.

So why put up with patchy mobile phone signal?!

Is it really worth risking a customer staying at your hotel, only to discover that he can’t take a quick phone call about work?

It might not have even been an issue for you over the last year. With reduced capacity, signal issues might have even eased slightly – but it might just be that the issue isn’t being highlighted.

So, what can you do?

Act quickly!

A mobile signal booster could be the solution you need to make sure you’re ready for the school holiday rush in the next few weeks. But you need to move fast.

What is a mobile signal booster?

A mobile signal booster will take the mobile signal that surrounds your building and bring it inside, distributing it throughout the building to significantly improve the mobile signal.

Don’t worry, they’re 100% legal.

We ONLY use boosters that comply with Ofcom’s regulations as per the Wireless Telegraphy (Mobile Repeater) (Exemption) Regulations 2018 stipulations after their key ruling three years ago.

All our boosters are classified as static mobile phone repeaters for indoor use, and they’re ideal for hotels and hospitality venues with signal issues!

So, if you’re planning for the school summer holiday rush, now’s the BEST time to get that signal issue that’s been bugging you for ages sorted – finally.

Want to start taking calls ASAP? Here’s how…

The first step is to know exactly what you need.

We’ll get to know your requirements and find out just how severe your signal problems are – that way we know what will work best, where it needs to go and how quickly we can get it all set up.

What’s next? Easy – via a remote desktop survey.

Once that’s done, we’ll come out to you and conduct an on-site survey to double-check all of our findings are accurate (they usually are, but it’s always best to be safe!).

That way we know that the solution we’ve suggested for you is the right one, plus if there’s anything else that could be causing issues, we’ll find it!

Once we’ve got all the measurements, readings, bits, and bobs, we’ll get on our way, and we can crack on with the installation of your mobile signal booster ready for the holidays.

How quickly can we get underway?

We aim to start every job within 4 weeks, which is why it’s important to act fast!

We’ll keep you updated throughout, so you’ll know when you can stop standing on that table in the corner of the room just to get enough signal to send a text.
Once everything’s been installed, we’ll come out to check everything’s working okay and you’re happy with your new signal woe-free life.

Then we’ll do a few more tests – just to make sure. After that, you’ll know you’ve got the maximum signal strength possible.

What then? Well, then it’s school holiday time – and you’re all ready to hit the ground running.
