The city I live in, Port Macquarie, has awful cell phone reception basically everywhere (I'm on the Vodafone network).

Is this something I can bring up with the local council, or elected representative?

I can't believe I live in a city of 50,000 people and I'm unable to receive phone calls from my house.

On a related note, Centrelink added a new song!

Bless them! They're so generous to provide us with something new to listen to while we wait to talk to someone for over an hour, to ask them why we haven't been paid when we submitted a claim two months ago!

And then for some unlucky people "sorry your claim has been rejected, please start a new claim and have it assessed in a few months, and we'll back pay you to today, not two months ago".
