Yep, you read that headline right. In one of the most audacious moves in the UK broadband sector yet, TalkTalk has just announced via the Carphone Warehouse website that it will be offering its Essentials broadband service for 24 month contracts, 12 months of which will be absolutely free.
TalkTalk Essentials provides top speeds of 8Mbps comes with a 40GB download cap and normally costs £6.99 a month plus £11.49 for line rental when taken as a 12 month contract. If you sign up for 24 months you’re essentially getting two for the price of one saving you over £200 (£6.99 = £11.49 x 12 months = £221.76). The only thing you’ll have to pay for for the first year of the contract is the £29.99 connection fee.
Currently it doesn’t look like there are plans to roll out 24 month contracts for TalkTalk’s premium TalkTalk Pro which provides unlimited downloads and top speeds of 24Mbps for £14.99 a month plus £11.49 a month for line rental.
All TalkTalk broadband packages come with inclusive weekend calls to UK landlines beginning with 01, 02 and 03 numbers as well as 0870/0845 numbers. Anytime calls to 36 international landlines can be added to TalkTalk packages from as little as £2.
