What's their broadband/phone service like? I've just had a call from them, they say I could have a similar service to BT but for £19 less than I'm paying now.

Difference is, talktalk don't offer the hub phone, which I give to family and friends, as well as the ordinary land line number which is for everyone else (who I don't particularly want to speak to lol). Talktalk reckon I am being charge double line rent for this but I don't think I am, going to pull out the contract and check.

What I want to know is, does their broadband have any downtime? BT round here rarely does.

hi i have been with talktalk since it started i find it,s great unlimeted free phone call to 01&02 numbers you keep your old phone number and phone . recommend it.

You really dont want me to reply to this just now !! agghhhhhhh

Have had 3months of c.....p from virgin and had enough so am seriously considering switching to BT ....will not go on or thread WILL be whooshed

strop over lol :) x

I've been with BT for the last two years, and I am happy with their service, but they are a bit pricey...I'm paying £36 a month all in, that's broadband, phone, free evening and weekend calls, and the hub phone with a separate number, which I really like having..

I only have broadband ...phone is pay-as-you-go and was very happy untill

just recently hey ho ..cost went from £10 to £17plus and now its £25.40 !! (in 2 years !!)

Thats just for the net so im not happy :(

I'm with Tiscali. £30 a month that's my broadband (unlimited downloads etc) and free 01 / 02 calls from land line.. I pay nothing to BT for the line.

I'm with Talk Talk.

They are fine once they are up and running......but they mucked me about with the going live date when we started so I was without internet for about 4 days.

Once in a blue moon their servers or whatever it is go down...but not that often or for that long for it to be a real problem.

The unlimited free anytime calls for up to an hour are most welcome lol.....and I've never had the slightest problem with their phone line xx

Hi TW

I have the same as you xxx

hub phone is this one you save for your " Friends " lol

Thing is I dont have a land line and dont really want one tbh or the TV...just dont need or have time for all those channels !!

virgin is probally still cheapest option really and was very happy until recently . Its just the way they have dealt with a prob i had (which i wont go into lol) they really wernt helpful but will see what is available out there.

Yes Hayley, I have given you the number but you still insist on using the other one....lol

Well if its for your friends ** studies nails **


Awww TW I have had a wonderfull afternoon finished early today....and yesterday I got out all my girls baby born doll stuff and washed it for the little granddaughter next door she played for hours yesterday...I got home early today and she was playing again....and tomorrow she is going to call for me to play again :-)))

We are with Sky for broadband £5 month, phone line rental £10 month, unlimited phone calls up to 59 minutes £5 month. We have the basic sky tv package about £20 month.

Is that a dress rehearsal Hayley?


Liz, we looked at Sky but at the time,in comparison with BT it didn't seem value for money, even though we already have Sky TV. There seems to be some downtime with them too.

Hayley, I only give that number to friends and family, so if you have it, consider yourself hhhhhonoured.

My neighbour asked who was having the most fun...lol

Hmmm I'm thinking you're practising for the real thing....
