Are Primus part of Talk Talk

Hi All

I have line rental with Primus and O2 Broadband. Now I am thinking of getting them under one banner, so was checking online, I had a phone call from Talk Talk, When I mentioned my line rental with Primus he said they are part of Talk Talk business group.

Is this true?

He even had a cheek of offering me a rubbish deal, Once I mentioned deals on line he put the phone down

Website says they are part of NewCall telecom.

Talk Talk Business runs:- Pipex, Opal Telecom, Freedom2surf, Nildram and Tiscali.
Talk Talk residential also runs AOL and Tiscali.

so the geezer was lying lol... I assume he was. . When I said that's a suprise. Then he put me on hold and said he checked and yes Primus are part of Talk talk business group.

Quite bizzare finding resellers pretending to be part of TT in order to sell their product! How would that help?

Unless they've just been bought out?

This is really odd.

New Call who own Primus actually bought some smaller businesses from TalkTalk a couple of years ago
