One thing to watch with people like TalkTalk is that they will, if possbile, migrate you onto their LLU service. This may not be a problem while with them, but I have heard that migrating back to BT can be a major hassle. I've even heard of people being stuck without ADSL service because their LLU ISP decides they can't provide service after all, but having been unbundled they are blocked (for some reason) from migrating back to BT. I believe that Ofcom (or whoever) are looking into getting this issue sorted though. That said my home line has now been migrated to Sky and the have been reasonably helpful during the process. I've not actually hooked up my kit yet though, and I'm not LLU (although suspect I will be soon). They were cheap/free for a second backup line though, so I'm not too worried if the service is less than perfect :) -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ | 023 9238 0001 ====================================================================== Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 | Registered Office: Crawford House, Hambledon Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants, PO7 6NU -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
