TalkTalk to splash £1.5bn laying full fibre on 3 million doorsteps

Re: Talktalk is dead/dying

I think Sky is the logical suitor for Talktalk business. They are into IPTV (via youview) but Sky have the original programmings and access to a lot of content, which TT doesnt. They are also launching the new NOw tv stick to further enhance their TV presence. A lot of synergy to achieve.

Besides, TT results dont make good readings lately and share prices have tanked. The cost of servicing the 3 million fibre connections will sink the company and stretch the already pathetic management and customer services. I even doubt this wil be lauched in due time. They have not yet even identified the towns/cities that wil get this Ftth. Its just wiilly waving to grab headlines when the financials are heading south.

FFS, they could not even offer 4G on mobiles for 3 years, after grand announcements. And the divison closed.

Mr Dunstone is a sharpy chap and he is seeing the light. Might just cash up.
