I actually changed mobile phone providers recently and am having exactly the same thing happen.
What's going on? It seems a bit dodgy to me - I'm sure NTL would never dream of using something like a SIM box, so it all seems rather strange.
Has anybody else noticed this?

Yeah I noticed this on Telewest, this problem usually happens during weekday mornings. But calling mobiles on the 3 mobile network is always terrible, however if you call someone using 3 mobile but have a ported number from another network, then there shouldn't problem as the calls are being routed through the previous network. Therefore, its got something to do with the mobile network.What is a sim box?I have called mobiles from Spectrum interactive payphones (New world) which use the NTL CPS service over a BT line and experienced no problems, but when using an interphone payphone which used a cable line, the problem happened again.
