Switching from TalkTalk to Sky

Options
Hi - this weekend (21 Mar) a Sky engineer is coming to install our Sky TV service, and then on 30 Mar the Sky Broadband and Phone service begins.

Up until now we have been with TalkTalk and our contract with them was due to run out on 26 Mar.

My question is - when does my contract with TalkTalk actually end? Given that we will have Sky from 21 Mar onwards? And will we still have TalkTalk Broadband up until 26 Mar?

That's not been explained very well...

    It will end on the 21st as soon as sky takeover, You will have an early termination charge off TalkTalk but this will be a matter of Pence so nothing to worry about.

    It doesn't run out. It just reaches the end of its minimum term and will continue until cancelled or switched.

    Sky TV is a separate part which you could still have even with TalkTalk phone. As the BB and phone switches over on the 30th that's when your services with TalkTalk will end.

    They're 3 separate contracts. One for TV, one for broadband, one for line rental and calls.
    PS: Sky don't have any engineers-they're installers.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
