Talk Talk free broadband???

Is it me? am I doing something wrong? cant I see something I should? I cant for the life of me see how to check whether I can recieve talk talk free broadband. Yes I can input my number and postcode but thats all. There is no botton to click afterwards. Similarly I cannot email them via the contact us route. There is no submit or send button at the end of the form. Has anybody else had this problem? please help

    It doesn't matter which website you use to check this information! Try this one:
    http://www.broadbandchoices.co.uk/provider.asp?ProviderID=47&kt=137

    Probably best you can't see ;)

    On the front page of their site, there is a Green Banner which goes across the page
    [Telephone Number] [Postcode] [      ]
                                  [ Go > ]
    [                ] [        ] [      ]
    

    If you can't see the Go button (in purple), then maybe your browser isn't showing the objects - you can get around this by typing the telephone number, typing the postcode, and then press "[Tab]" followed by "Enter".

    Well that link doesn't show TalkTalk with a couple of line details I just entered which I know are able to receive TalkTalk's service. Just choosing TalkTalk from the provider list doesn't show whether it is free on a particular line or not.

    And that site is unlikely to tell people whether it is "Free" or not. A better place to check whether TalkTalk (Carphone Warehouse) is unbundling the exchange, and therefore providing "Free" broadband is samknows.com. Click here for the page of interest.

    I thought the point was whether you could recive broadband per se, not necessarily talk talk.
