    I'm sure you've had lots of replies about this, but for what it's worth I would run a mile from Talktalk!

    We chose them when we moved because they were the best deal for phone and internet, we had previously been with AOL for many years.

    The internet connection goes off upto 10 times a night. It's only for a few minutes each time but it's so frustrating.

    Their customer service is bad too. All i can get out of them is information about where our router is.

    Sorry for the rant!

    Beware talktalk!!


    i disagree totally. i have been with talktalk for 21 months and have never had the internet down. ive never had to call them for any reason at all.
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.

    Oh dear! Sitting here ruining a perfectly good tea towel. Was just washing a glass prior to making the supper, and I snapped out a triangle of glass and sliced out quite a chunk of finger in one deft movement . Another permanent disfigurement to add to the collection. Ah well, on the plus side OH has offered to make tea. (Prob didn't fancy finding a piece of his dearest in his home made burger! :rotfl:)
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Some people will do anything to get out of cooking:D.

    Seems a bit extreme though, hope you are ok

    I was with Worldonline, then taken over by Tiscali and finally TalkTalk, nothing has changed and my internet has failed once in the last four years and they offered comp. but I refused as it was only a few hours.
    I have the unlimited package and it really is!!!

    Tesco Broadband

    http://www.tescobroadband.com/home.aspx

    £2.50 per month for unlimited internet
    £13.75 for inclusive evening and weekend calls

    12 month contract with no set up fee and free wireless router.

    £30 cashback via Quidco.

    AND 3 clubcard points for every £1 spent.


    Reviews are poop though. :rotfl:

    I think Tesco should stick with groceries (and they're still pretty bad at that :rotfl:).

    SEWN?!? :eek:

    What barbaric practice are you ladies putting yourselves through now?

    Last person I saw getting their eyebrow sewn was a boxer...

    Think he means threaded, I know someone posted a link (think it was Miss Laid) a couple of weeks ago.

    Nikki, I think eyebrow threading is more painful than waxing, especially when you have it done in T's.
