    Hi
    I am thinking about changing my supplier for the broadband, I have TalkTalk for line rental and for phone (have the unlimited call all day package whatever thats called these days) and broadband is with AOL on the £9.99 deal. Can probably save around £100 ish by moving all to talktalk
    Is there a better deal around??
    Are there any implications on going down this route? what happens when I want to change to suppliers of any component do I have to get BT line back and do they charge for this and will I then be tied back in to a contract with them?
    All of this opening up to competition is making things very complex imho
    thanks

    Where have you been? AOL is Talk Talk, they took them over a couple of years back so migration shouldn't be an issue.
    Eventually moving away from talk talk may be though.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I know AOL is the same company is talk talk, but currently have to access aol via the landline at the exchange, talktalk however offer "free broadband" via the unbundling at my exchange hence the question about switching despite them being the same company and why I was asking how easy it is to move away from them
