      Talk Talk is shit tho .... Speaking from experience ..

        just had some young lad knock my door trying to sell me talk talk broadband, told him I'm not interested, after trying all his different sales spiel, I'm still telling him I'm not interested, I had to admire his final pitch, he said "don't you fancy taking it for 7 days then cancel it, that way I get my commission", I just smiled and shut the door.

          It seems the more you pay the more it goes up so maybe its time to consider paying less.

                I would avoid talk talk like the plague!! They are one of the worst ISPs around.

                CS is terrible, as is their tech support. Their service is atrocious tbh. And you can only get 24mb max.

                  yeah i got the same letter, think im gna have to make a call and threaten to cancel the service that usually does the trick

                  Anyway speeds were meant to double anyway as we have one of slowest BB speeds in the world. The goverment are about to hand out money to a few citys or regions to increase speeds. London, Bham, Manc, Sheffield are deffo gna get money Leeds n Bradford have put in a joint bid to get some of the cash.

                      I very much doubt any of the places you have listed will get money. Its more for the remote places. Highlands of Scotland, West Wales, and some other places in England.

                      Whilst the core network is pretty fast, overall its slower because of remote places.

                        compared to other developed countries in the world we are way behind with our speeds.

                        You can doubt that the money wont reach those places but London, Bham, Sheff, Manc have already got the money
