The price is great, i get just under 5 meg broadband and free phones calls to landlines and international calls which are great as the wife's parents live in Spain. No BT line needed.
There was a problem setting it up as the Technical team don't know much...

One of the worse companies I have ever dealt with. Could not even get a line to give notice to terminate contract!!
Speed - laughable, writing this on 0.69Mb. Reliability - nil, cannot get a line or line drops without warning, takes hours to download radio...

Extremely poor speeds, frequent disconnections, sometimes taking 5 mins or more to reconnect. We used to get 1-2 Mbps from previous broadband (Tiscali). We live only about 1.5 km from exchange, modern house, modern wires to exchange. I've benchmarked...

Been on 18 months,absolute pain to set up.Asian based customer service utterly useless.8 meg(up to)no chance but know for a fact local cabling suspect.Cant realy complain for the price,once set up absolutely reliable but dont use there modem!

Don't do it! Anybody has got to be better than these people. 9 times out of 10 you cannot get a connection and the 10th time it's soooooooo slow. Worst thing we ever did was to switch to these people.

talk talk broadband is the best internet 8MB free evening and weekend calls

8Mbps I don't think. Switched from B.T. 2Mbps because Talk Talk said I could get 8Mbps at a cheaper rate, changed over and just did speed tests, download speed 0.5Mbps, upload speed 0.69Mbps.
What a CON it is.

i really wish i had checked out this site before signin up with talk talk!! since comin over to them from BT, our phone line is totally rubbish, free evening and weekend calls yes!!! we never use the phone because you cant hear the other person because the...

Trouble getting broadband date.
TalkTalk cannot even set up Direct Debits successfully.
Have had restriction put on telephone line (without notice) due to TalkTalks inability to set direct debit up for 1st payment..
Numerous phone calls to solve problem....

Have now been with TalkTalk for over a year. Bit slow getting connected but worth the wait. Was with BT before and also Tiscali. TalkTalk is just as good if not better.
Any problems have always been sorted out, but takes a little time.
All in ALL not a bad...

cheap and I get 7MB.Free calls for technical support.I have been with them for 18 mths and signing up for another 18 mths.

Been with talktalk for some time. Problems at the start and only managed 1mg at the most (supposed to be up to 8) After making my own enquiries found that the maximum I could hope to get was 2.9mg (I am 2.46km from the exchange). After a couple of calls to...

Getting speeds of only 280kb out of 8 Megs, very poor customer as well as technical service - I have put up with them for about a month as they keep trying to sort out the issue with the speed...would not recommend this treatment to anyone...thank you very...

Had Talktalk 8MB for three weeks now, had no trouble with it at all. Kit arrived within 2 weeks and switched on 4 weeks after ordering. I do a weekly speed check and todays was Download Speed 6.44Mbps; Upload Speed 0.32Mbps. I advise those with problems to...

Well it may be free but we've had nothing but problems since moving to talk talk. Took several weeks to be connected and again appalling customer service with problems understanding each other. Would rather pay BT for a better service so going back and regret...

The same excuse for everybody,it seems:
TalkTalk give 8MB as the maximum speed but it depends on the distance you are away from the exchange.
Total rubbish ! BT line checks show higher speeds are available .
Customer service - please look up the word...

I have been on AOL for years and lest weekend the exchange moved over to Talk Talk equipment. At first the speed almost died, but after a call to the AOL helpdesk, they advised me to change my router MTU setting to 1400 and bingo! speed now always above 3Mb....

Cheap and very slow ... Websites struggle tu download in evenings ... Servers seem overloaded in Gosport. Connected a week ago moving from Orange. Now I see I made a mistake. Orange was much better, stable and Ok although costing 19 pounds.

Absolutely rubbish. My speeds went down to 100kbps (ie: 0.1MBps) two months ago. I completely disconnected my Modem/Router from the line and used the other line we have at home. But recently I received a letter from Talktalk that my downloads have exceeded...

Telephone service is very good value for money even without broadband. The up to 8MB is a joke, I am lucky to connect at 512kbps and it is extremely slow most of the time. At least they are now offering a 30 day free trial so you are not tied up with an...

After an "upgrade" to the exchange in my area, Its even slower than before. Download Speed 0.45Mbps Upload Speed 0.18Mbps.

rubbish better on BT nothing like we were promised 8mbs a JOKE the sooner our contract expires the BETTER,

Fair enough the speed isn't the best out there with varying speeds from 300kbs to 6Mbs - just depends if you get a good connection.
Looking at reviews of other suppliers Talk Talk are about the same - apart from their price
You have to admit that the...

8mb No 1mb Yes. However I have tried other providers without anything better coming through. I am told that it is my location at some distance from the exchange that is the problem. I was without any service for over a week when a line fault developed.

Absolute rubbish. Will move away as soon as I can. Don't bother with this one.

it like watching paint dry when to get connectedvery slow talk talk can be called cowboys just want your money customer service you are on hold for 50 mins

very slow runs 1.5mb 2 mb if i`m lucky this on an 8mb contract !!

what a joke - slow speed, frequent loss of service. Don't switch to them if you can avoid it - or aren't bothered about getting regular and reliable service.

stars say it all its all poor slow connection slow customer service slow everything the only good thing is their phone package. its that slow yahoo takes 3 year to load wish id never changed from wanadoo and customer service cant ever help cos they havent a...

Really wish I'd seen these reviews before I signed up. Speeds of up to 0.79 Mbps on a contract for upto 8Mbps. Like other reviewers I always spend more than an hour talking to someone who can barely speak English who tells me to test the line over a month...

When i first joined talktalk about a year ago download and up load speeds were great this maybe due to that it was still a bt line when they changed it to ther own network lost broadband for a month customer service was god knows where as much use as the tax...

Dont go for the Talktalk broadband deal...it doesn't do 'broadband'.
It should be sold as a ' meditation package ' !

I wish there was somewhere I could put less than zero - someone warned me before that Talk Talked sucked - someone should have these guys up under trading standards - what you get is not what they offer what you get is a vintage modem circa 1970 and two...

The offers are great and very comprehensive. However the promises given in the 'Welcome Pack' are a joke. Everything is hunky dory until a problem occurs. (and it will). The literature doesn't cover the most basic of self help suggestions. Phone help keeps...

Set-up was fine (but then I worked in IT). Reliability OK, occasionally drops out. Have not yet called their customer service but I'm about to because... Speed has dropped over the last six months. My average download speed now is 1.4mbps on an "Up to 8MB"...
