Help Mobile phone signal boost

Hi Guys

has anyone purchased or used a mobile phone signal booster. We live 380 feet above sea-level and obviously near a phone mast as we have just had to have a filter fitted in our TV Ariel as the phone signal was over powering our TV signal !!
However ironic none of our phones work in our home.
We have tried 02, Vodafone,EE & BT sim cards and all are just as bad. No signal and cant even text from home. We have 5 mobile phones in the house all different makes and not one gets a signal.

On the market are a plethra of mobile phone signal boosters from £39.00 to £595.00
My question is has anyone ever installed one of these and do they work ? HELP please ? Jaguar x-type sport gone

Got a Vodafone Sure Signal (about £100 unless you get Vodafone to pay for it). It allows the phone to use the wifi signal in the house instead of the mobile signal and certainly works well in my case. Without it I couldn't make calls in the house with it I've got 5 bar signal.

I set one of those Vodafone internet boxes up for someone it worked OK although you had to register each phone with it. My son worked for a small company and they had a problem with mobile coverage in their office and he got a booster box from this outfit in 2015.

They cable tied it on a plastic drainpipe and it worked OK. Unfortunately the actual one they bought is no longer on the website. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
