problems in incoming calls - Mississauga

Did anyone else face problems in receiving incoming calls in Mississauga (near square one/hurontario)

Highly unusually but 2 people told me yesterday evening that they got through to me after repeatedly calling my number.

Could be an exception.

Can't find any details on canadianoutage site.

What kind of message did they receive when calling you?

could be a problem with the other network from which they were dialing in.

I have seen on my own phone that when I was inside a mall, some areas will be a dead spot. I have not seen it with calling but definitely with data. At times my phone reports LTE+ but data was soo slow.

Ex. Limeridge mall in Hamilton. Inside the mall was okay. Inside H&M at fitting rooms was a dead spot.

Ex. Square One inside the mall had some low connection spots

Ex. Vaughan mills also had some too

If your phone was in these (dead) spots at that moment and it received a call then maybe it could of happened. Above situations though are present with all carriers so it does not bother me all that much. It could also be something else in the area causing interference.

yes i understand it losing network deep inside some mall.

but this happened in the open (near celebration square to be precise).

but hasn't happened again..so could be something else too.

inside square one mall, i could see the network losing LTE sometimes, but was able to get 3G and make calls throughout. It was not the case with fido and wind.
