    I didn't mention Sky.

    You get - The BBC iPlayer, 4OD and 5OD. But without an aerial, no ITV player.

    But you'll still be in an 18 month minimum term contract if you do...
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    It's OK actually. Because if it can't work, TalkTalk will give jackiehen her money back. Because this has happened to TT users before, and they got a full refund too.

    Talk talk recommend a 3mbps connection, an engineer does the install for £50 which is a huge rip off because all he does is plug in a cat 5 and aerial cable and go home.

    There are actually two speeds required for YouView from TalkTalk.

    To view the on demand content on the Plus TV package, 3Mbps is required. However, to purchase and view TV Boosts, 5Mbps is required.

    And a bit more info -

    Existing customers have to take out a new 24 month contract and also lose any discounts they were previously recieving.

    New customers are offered an 18 month contract.
