Don't buy it ! It's crap ! . Unfortunatly it's no better than BT or the other Shylocks out there . They promise a lot deliver little and help not at all . To be absolutely fair they are helped a lot by BT who provide a land line that is only PHYSICALLY capable of 512kbps and cable who are not laying any lines any more . For a new building developement where I live this is criminal . BUT ! Check the speed out for your area because if you haven't got cable then you are limited in speed by the distance from the exchange FACT . NON FACT ( Lies ) able to provide a service up to XYZ kbps when physically they can't .

With a connection that is a tenth of what the company is advertising and have informed me that I could obtain this is very poor however the issues are due to line quality which rests entirely with BT who dispite thier billions have still to invest in fibre optics as promised some 12 years ago.

When first signed up for 16Mb I actually received 7.1 for almost a year with occasional drops to 6 Mb. After that the speed has been greatly variable in range 3 - 6 Mb

When i had sky installed part of the package was if i wanted to take broadband. There was basic and an increase in speed for an extra £5 per month. Then recently i got an email from there saying that as a customer they going to upgrade my broadband speed for no extra. There has been no improvement so far, but the opposite at times its crawling. This is on a connection from router to my pc wired. Then when i use my laptop in other rooms its pitifull the speed, so slow. I left Talktalk because if there pathetic service, even from the company C.E.O. Looks like things got worse not better.

Not satified at all they fail to answer e mails in a reasonable time and charge national call rates on their telephone helpline.

Very slow download speeds, i'm getting 1Mb most of the time. When I first joined i got 2Mb, that dropped to 1.6Mb and now only 1Mb download for the unlimited broadband package at £15 per month.

I was buying the 8Mb service (mid) and I was only getting 2Mb so I downgraded to the 2Mb service and now I'm getting 864Kb - crap! ripped off whatever you do - isn't there a trade descriptions act?

At first Sky was fantastic with great speeds actually exceeding my recommended bandwidth but within two weeks and several pointless phone calls later, Sky slowed down to worse than Dial up. I actually used my iPhone on EDGE which was faster at home, and am forced to write this review on it. Eventually after complaining to Sky about my diminishing speed I requested a MAC code only to find my connection terminate entirely despite the fact that I had not even opened my MAC address letter. I did not instruct cancellation, which they said they couldnt do until the contract was up anyway. Essentially Sky do not fulfill their contactual obligations to their customers and eventually in my case are charging me for a service ghat is totally inoperable. Rubbish!
