    I cannot understand why talktalk gets so many bad reviews. I have been with talktalk for over 2 years and find the service outstanding. I have no trouble getting in contact with customer services and all the help lines are free. My broadband is excellent I get up to 6 mgs, however I am near the exchange. The international rates on my plan are free, and I have no trouble with the phone line, except on one occasion when there was a fault on the line and talktalk transferred all calls to my o2 mobile for free until the bt line was fixed. This is the cheapest provider by far and I can only speak of my own experience. I would not go back to BT because I have saved a small fortune on calls. Perhaps I am lucky because my exchange is up to date, but some are just being updated. It is a matter of patience but for my part I am delighted.

    If you want free phone calls choose talk talk ... but if you need anything faster than 500ps broadband dont bother! I have rang technical help 5 times, last 2 apparently to a 2nd line tech support number all involved 20 mins on hold before the same set of checks. All technicians admitted (from speed test) it was ridiculously slow and all promised they would improve it. NONE DID!! Last straw was a promise someone would ring me sometime in next 24 hrs. If you can sit by a phone for 24 hrs on the offchance that a 6th person will remember to ring you and look into your problem when 5 others passed you on then, and only then, this provider is the one for you. TIP: Invest in a VERY comfortable chair if you choose talk talk broadband!!!

    t/t broadband has never worked properly since installing it. it has a habit of going off-line whenever it feels like, then assist + go jumps in and messes everything up completely. as soon as i can, i will swap to another isp.
