Dads Ordered TalkTalk

without telling me. he was talking about doing it, but i told him to hold off a while and see how things shape out, but after getting a management email 10 days into our month he made his mind up and done it.

Ah well, we aint getting connected until the end of July, so i suppose it gives them time to hopefully sort out any bugs or complaints, but also to overpopulate their lines

.

Just hope they are OKish for gaming for CSS, BF2 and the like, dont play MMOs etc so not bothred about any WOW problems.

At least this time if they are crap then its his fault, i pushed for Tiscali (first BB conn) and for Plusnet (great when we started, but crap now), so at least if it goes norks up i can point at him this time rather than the other way around.

/crosses fingers that they are OK

I think its 40GB or something, but P2P is heavily trafficed, not to bothered about that though as i do 300mb a month tops in P2P.

Yeah, i know what you mean by you get what you pay for, which is why im a tad worried, we were on Tiscali, and im hoping its not going to be another case of Tiscali experiences.

Tiscali may rave on about this unlimited package, but my mate is on it and recently got a letter saying he is takling the **** so back off the downloads.

My mate got that too. Apparantely if you are downloading too much for their liking they have one single pipe that they dump all the heavy users on, which totally kills your download speeds along with everything else.

Holy thread revival :eek:

Just a quick question, do you get a private email, or am i going to be having to pay for an email client just to keep my ocuk account.

First of all, blank out the swear works fully, unless you fancy a suspension. Secondly, im sure people are fully of aware of how bad TalkTalk is, but its too good a deal to not try it out, and for an average user itll be fine. If its crap then its going to be going rather fast, but if its decent then fair do's. Im hoping itll do for my bit gaming and browsing, as for P2P i dont care as i only do 300mb a month if that.

I wish mine was only a 3 weeks wait, we ordered it on the 8th May and aint getting connected until the 25th July.

Yep, my uncle ordered them and swiftly cancelled as they couldnt even get his address right, he sat on the phone for an hour just trying to give them the correct address and got no where, so just cancelled it.
