is talktalk business broadband any better? edit: which isp on budget?
Hi there,
This is my first post after reading lots of interested threads and I was wondering whether I could get some information.
Here is my problem:
I am due to move out for the first time and am looking for an ISP. As a self employed subtitled, I totally rely on the internet and download films for work all the time. I don't necessarily need a super fast connection as the films are between 400 and 700 mobs big, but I certainly need a reliable connection 24/7.
As I work from home, I will also use the internet privately. I have recently acquired a talk talk youview box and will stream on-demand shows.
As this is my first time away from home and I dont know what exactly to expect from water and electricity bills etc. I really want to keep costs low and only get what I need, hence no sky channels but freebies to start out with. However, I do like that talk talk offers TV packages and I was wondering whether I could or should take their internet, as hopefully I would be able to add their TV function lateron if required.
I am very concerned about their reputation though, especially since I rely on working internet so much. I am wondering, however, if their business broadband would be more reliable or at least their customer service be better? Does anyone know?
Also, would I still be able to add a TV package despite being a business customer?
I am very worried about going with them but the alternative I thought would be plus net, although I haven't read good things about them here either?
Thank you for your help!
