Just a quick question to ask if anyone else is experiencing any difficulties in accessing their e-mails today. Thanks

Don't know if this thread is relevant. One of the posters said that AOL (which the thread was about) is now TalkTalk

I was talking to a neighbour Thursday who had trouble with his Talk Talk emails, he was going to google and using a third party email. We didn't go into it much further it was just in passing.
Several people I know have left Talk Talk seems they are cheep, but you get what you pay for :-(

I am with Sky seems pretty good as providers go.
Never use the Sky emails though, stick with third party.

Try Gmail or Yahoo. ;-)

I have been with Talk Talk for several years and they've been absolutely fine.

I'm with Talk Talk for B/B and Aol for emails...in the past I've complained about the BB speed being like cold treacle , however I recently had the opportunity of using a " light Speed" Bb...and it is still slow... conclusion? its the lappie that's the problem!..

I've been with Talktalk for about 10 years and never had any trouble with emails till that hacking episode a while back. Since then, although I have no trouble accessing my emails, some of my emails go to my 'INBOX' and some go straight to 'TRASH' and that includes new contacts who send me emails too. So it is like having two 'INBOXES' and having to check both since then which is a nuisance! :-|

Talk Talk use a router from Huwei which is nothing wonderful.
This is about to be replaced with a new design from Sagem with much better performance. It is well worth the £ 30 upgrade cost. New users get it by default.
