Talk Talk

[self-sale]

Hi,

Does anyone use Talk Talk for broadband and business phone lines. Are they any good?

Who would you recommend?

Thanks

Steve

 

Personally I'd avoid Talk Talk like the plague

I have loads of customers trying to get away from them, as their broadband is very poor.

A decent comparison site HERE

Thanks Comspec

Who would you recommend?
Do you a provider who can do a new line installation and a broadband and talk package?

Hi there,

We use it for our business line and also at home which means calls between business and home are free. Have used them for quite a while with no problems at all and very low bills.

I'm on Talk Talk! It's great, 8gb free broadband and the phone is pretty cheap too, I'd definitely reccomend them. I've been on Talk Talk for a few years now and havn't had a time EVER when it's been offline. Apart from when they were updating everything making it from 4mbps to 8mbps which they informed me 3 weeks before it happend and it lasted 20 minutes!

Use TalkTalk here too, have done for nearly 2 year without any problem. The horror stories you here can be associated with all the big players and any problems I have had are soon sorted, unlike, BT, Demon, and bunches of others I have used at homoe and work over the years.

Exactly, yeah people move from Talk Talk to others but just look at others, BT have massive problems, all of them do!

I moved from BT to Talk Talk and it took WEEKS to sort out the problems it caused... lost one of my phone numbers, had a week with no broadband. Their customer service is rubbish. I'd avoid them too!

So that must mean you'd avoid them all, they don't have bad customer service it's just hard to get through, like every single big company!

If we made a thread about a random broadband ISP now then I bet it'd get the same response.

That's not my experience - getting through is one thing - getting someone who knows what they're talking about is another! They're the only broadband provider I've dealt with that has ever caused me any problems

 

I support a load of homes & businesses, and I have found that anyone with Talk Talk cannot wait until their contract is up to move over elsewhere.

Maybe this is just true in Northern Ireland, though I doubt it.

AOL used to give a great service for the money, but they too have fell to s***.

Have a look at Zen, etc - they get some great reviews.

 

[jdpos]

All of them get good and bad reviews it's not worth posting on any forum about it unless it's a broadband expert forum! Either search google for good and bad reviews, I did this and found all of them are the same, all my family have seperate contracts on Talk Talk and have been for years we switched when freeserve was took over. Never had a problem.

i was thinking about trasfering to talk talk but with everything going on it it really worth it because i am with bt at the moment and not sure for talk talk would be any better

It's a bit like banks, one person raves the next hates.

Personally I moved to Talk Talk from Virgin and have been delighted both with the costs and the service. At virgin I had problems with connection and download limits.

Word of warning though, TT have an 18 months contract so if you do have issues then you're stuck.

Use money saving expert as your starting point - I usually do.
