The budget conscious Internet and fixed line phone provider, TalkTalk UK ( AOL UK , Tiscali , Opal ) has, somehow without us spotting it until today, launched its own range of mobile phone and Mobile Broadband packages. The services appeared without much fanfare and we're not sure how long they've been listed on TalkTalk's site.
At the end of July 2010 TalkTalk revealed that it had signed a new Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) agreement with Vodafone UK, allowing them to launch their own range of mobile voice and Mobile Broadband services - TalkMobile - alongside existing products.
At the time TalkTalk said that the service was set to launch sometime later in the summer, although we haven't heard even so much as a peep about it since then. It's probably a huge oversight on our part, we can't be sure, but TalkTalk's website is now promoting the new services.
Sadly the anticipated prospect of true triple-play mobile, broadband and home phone service bundles has not yet been fully realised. Instead TalkTalk has kept its mobile deals somewhat separate from their existing broadband and fixed line phone bundles. However you do still have to be a TalkTalk customer to take the mobile service.
