      2.5% is fine if your just asking for dumb money, but if you want an active investor you need to make it worth their while. I’ve seen some entrepreneurs on Shark Tank ask for less than $100 for around 10% of their business because they want their expertise.

    He didn't need 5 million users to get the coverage data, he just needed users across the country covering a broader area, for that he didn't even need people to signup, just send out test devices and signal receptors (owned by network companies) to detect the average signal strength and base the overall signal strength on that. What's worse is that its not even the main selling point, main selling point is the comparisons of pricing and custom made network packages.

    As an Australian, I have to say his comments regarding poor reception in Australia are incorrect. What he will find is our 4G reception is better than a lot of wired home connections, to the point that a lot of people will use 4G rather than ADSL or Cable due to poor connection speeds.
    And in terms of an app to compare phone plans, we have multiple free websites which are independent and highly regarded, that do the exact same thing.
    So he would absolutely struggle down here. Definitely a day late and a dollar short. Or should I say £250,000 short? 😂

    Why on earth the company didn't just create a tool to index all of the different network's coverage maps, regardless of his criticism that they are 'static', and incorporate it into his app is beyond me. Network's are bound to provide as accurate information as possible - OFCOM ensure that much.
    Even if he managed to get say a million people using the app and sharing their signal strength, the information would still be terribly diluted as an individual would only ever provide coverage information for a short period of time, relative to their own current network before they upgrade their phone and likely never use the app again and therefore never provide any further data.

I also spent time outside Broome who were still plumbing running water into residential properties. I NEVER had any signal issues. I am now back home in the UK.
