Are you self-hosting websites?Also, the DNS propagation takes 2-3 days with TalkTalk, so when I set up new websites, it takes an age before it shows the host in my browser.
Not sure why you say DNS propagation takes 2-3 days, if you own the domain you can set the TTL to whatever you want.
Moreover, you should purchase a static IP address if you are hosting websites from your residential internet.
For your original questions, there are much better deals out there, I get 1 gig up/down for £25/month with BRSK and pay another £5 for a static IP for my self hosted websites.0 -

I'll try this, but sounds like I'll need to find an alternative supplier.
