Just had the salesman on the phone offering me a deal to move from AOL to their parent company TalkTalk. He has guaranteed me 2mb whereas I am currently getting up to 1Mb due to our distance from the exchange. I asked him how he can give me this speed when all others (BT included) say I am only capable of getting up to 1MB.
He stated that it is because they have some equipment in the exchange (I think he called it local unbundling) and therefore have priority etc etc. He also stated that usually they would offer me 8Mb but because of the distance it would have to be only 2mb.
My questions are - is he telling me porkies to get me to switch ? Has anyone any feedback on TalkTalk ?
Thanks - he is calling me back on friday...the price is very very good....£28.48 inc VAT a month to include line rental, Broadband, and all calls in UK, EU, North America, Australia etc.
