Around 36,000 new broadband customers have been added by TalkTalk. Thus, the customer base of TalkTalk is now more than 4.15 million which is almost double the 15,000 new customers which were added by them in the previous three months. It also raised revenue by 29% since the same time last year,  because of the addition of Tiscali broadband in July 2009. AOL Broadband is also owned by the company.
Charles Dunstone, chief executive officer, said: “TalkTalk Group’s brand profile, value for money proposition, and customer service have continued to generate real momentum in the market, attracting 36,000 net new broadband customers during the quarter and taking the base to 4.15 million.
“We are now confident that our base at the end of the current financial year will be towards the top of our existing 4.1 million to 4.2 million guidance range. The Tiscali integration remains well on track to create a highly efficient platform for providing our customers with excellent value and service.”

In the first week of January, TalkTalk started shifting Tiscali customers to its own packages thus providing the Tiscali broadband-only customers with a home phone and broadband bundle without paying any extra monthly cost.

Although, it added the customers who can not shift to the TalkTalk bundle. They would find an increase in their broadband-only package from £14.99 a month to £19.99 a month.

Michael Phillips, Broadbandchoices.co.uk product director, said: “Despite the poor economic climate, TalkTalk’s great value bundles continue to attract new customers. With 8Mb broadband, a 40GB download allowance and a free wireless router, as well as evening and weekend UK landline calls and line rental all for just £18.48 a month, it’s a hard deal to beat.

“TalkTalk also offers Boosts that can push your broadband up to 24Mb, double your download allowance or add Internet security for three PCs, as well as home phone options. It also launched a new high-end 24Mb Broadband package at the end of 2009,” he added. “TalkTalk Pro comes with a massive 80GB download allowance, a free wireless N router and anytime landline calls for just £14.99 a month.”
