I changed to Talk Talk from AOL and have retained my current AOL Email address.
I pay £5.75 a month for anytime Broadband and a one off annual payment for line rental of £141 which includes anytime telephone calls (only excluding premium 09 and 0844 numbers). I don't think any other providers can beat this.

I'm happy with TT, I have the same deal as you Star by the sound of it. Why are you changing Em?

[emmie]

thought could be a better deal, may not be, load of hassle so far with changing e mails, i just wanted to make sure that i can still log in and get my TT emails. No idea how to transfer them to someplace else, safe, or onto the new phone which will be my prime gmail account.

Why do you want to keep old e mails?

[Stargazer]

Since TalkTalk appears to be the cheapest deal, why do you want to change your ISP?

[emmie]

because the emails contain info i need to keep, like destroying letters you don't do it if its important. and changing because i found a cheaper deal, at least i hope so.

You could always cut and paste the contents onto Word documents, or print them out onto paper.

Just make a free e-mail addy and forward the e-mails to that address

An ISP with which you no longer have any financial connection doesn't usually let you carry on using its email service; there might be a grace period until they close it.

Use an email provider that isn't tied to an ISP, e.g. GMX, Yahoo or even gmail, and in the future you'll be independent of whichever ISP you're using. If you haven't already done this, take the opportunity to create several email accounts so that one could be for family and friends, another for serious stuff such as a bank or local council, perhaps a third for everything else; that method provides a rudimentary sorting of messages so that you know what to expect when you check what has arrived in a mailbox.

TalkTalk may well be the cheapest, Stargazer...doesn't mean they're the one to be with. Some people value a good service and decent customer care over price....I've never used "lowest cost" to choose anything.

[emmie]

TT have been getting ever more expensive. and the e mails are a lot,
bank ones, council ones, some personal stuff. if i could find a way to transfer the lot to another account, my gmail account lock stock and barrel i would, but i haven't found a way to do that by folder, just forwarding each mail, no good as that would take for ever.

[ladybirder]

I wish I could understand your problem em, but I can't. My ISP is TT, my email account is gmail, it all works perfectly. There is nothing wrong with TT or gmail. Last time I changed my ISP, just before I closed the account I forwarded all the emails I needed to keep from that account to my newly opened gmail account. I don't get why you can't do that now as bibblebub has said you usually get a few days' grace. Have you left it too late em?
Gingejbe, if I wasn't getting a good service from TT I wouldn't be using it.

[emmie]

i could do it but i have a lot i want to keep.

[Hopkirk]

I have been with Talktalk for years, and Tiscali before which they took over.

I have had no complaints about them, they are fine.

Providing that you run a Microsoft Email Client on your PC (e.g Outlook), just save all mail in PST files prior to migration and ensure that "Inbox" and "Sent Items" are blank before migrating.
