TalkTalk to charge £1 for printed monthly bill

Seems that someone doesnt want to allow discussion on my original post openly,having now resorted to hiding it away in thread about paper billing charges.

I'm not saying the the risk of TT going off and causing me hassle if I'm working from home was not one of the reasons for my doubling up

What's there to discuss?

You stated your opinion.

New £1 a month charges for paper billing.

New hidden price increases from the 1/10/2006.

Recent £ 245,000 fine by the FSA.

I think they have lost the plot,i dont know about you.

Others can read it and, if they feel strongly either way, post their own thoughts.

True however loads of other posts about Talk Talk etc have been allowed to stand alone i notice.So my initial reaction was why pick on this one?
But i notice that the original title still stands and is linked to this one,so as you say people can still post either way on the subject.

Ah. I see what you mean now.

Well, a Board Guide has obviously made the decision to merge your new thread with an exisiting one on (partly) the same subject.

Sorry, I think you'll have to live with that - Guides have the authority and the software gives them the ability to do so without having to leave their own details.

I don't see how having an itemised receipt of what you've spent should be chargeable!?

Imagine going into Tesco, and then the checkout lady asks if you like a receipt... and when you answer "Yes" she says "That's an extra £1 please!?"

If I can get broadband for free on both, so much the better:j

Sounds an expensive way to get 'free' broadband.

Where does it say about charging a pound for the billing. I looked at my last bill and there is blurb about online billing but I could not see anything about being charged for the bill. I am sure it will come as a shock for many who like me just check the price on the bill, throw all the rubbish they send away and file it somewhere.

Why ?

I need 2 lines ... plus having got £80 in discounts from the PO for transferring my 2nd line to them, the net line rental is mininal this year on that line.

I get it "free" from talktalk - for having my line and an inclusive call package ( maybe not the cheapest way to make calls - but not bad overall )

I get it "free" from Sky ( as the TV package I'm on really stands up on its own anyway)

I'm under no delusion that these "free" packages are not free, but they are cost effective for me.

I understand you have had problems with certain providers in the past ... but that does not mean others can't take advantage of the deals , if it works for them
