Talktalk Bit Of A Pain
13 Answers
My mum has just died and I phoned TalkTalk to let them know the bank has frozen her account and no direct debits will be paid. They only have two options. 1. They disconnect the phone immediately. 2. They put the account in someone else’s name and that person must set up a direct debit to pay the monthly bill. I told them there is no one in a position to do that, could they put the account on hold until the money from the estate becomes available? Answer no. They said I could have 30 days before they cut the line. I expect they charge for late payment and disconnection too. Every other company like electric, water, insurance etc have all shown empathy and have all agreed to hold the accounts and wait to send a final bill to get paid. After 1 hour 20 mins on the phone with talk talk, they have emailed me with a change of name form and a direct debit mandate for me to fill in! I sometimes think I am speaking a foreign language which no one at TalkTalk understands. Has anyone else found the same?

what you are asking for is a way them to keep providing a service, but with no means to pay for that service. Why do you want to keep it on? if someone else will be using it ong with them paying it?they need to pay for it. if it was solely for your mum, it's not needed any more.
