TalkTalk customers can now enjoy the UK’s best value landline to mobile calls (compared to BT, BT Plusnet, Virgin and Sky), thanks to its brand new 500 Mobile Minutes Boost*. For just £5 a month, customers get 500 minutes to use from their TalkTalk landline to call UK mobiles. These can be used any time of the day or night, seven days a week.
TalkTalk is the only landline provider to offer customers the option of tailoring their package with inclusive calls to UK mobiles. The 500 Mobile Minutes Boost joins TalkTalk’s existing 100 Mobile Minutes Boost^, which was launched last October. With the average customer saving £12 per month^^, TalkTalk has already helped the tens of thousands of customers who signed up to the 100 Mobile Minute Boost save over £3.2 million**.
The new 500 Mobile Minutes Boost now means customers will be able to enjoy savings of up to £50 a month*** and never have to worry about the cost of calling mobiles again.
TalkTalk has a wide range of Boosts which allow both Essentials and Plus customers to customise their phone and broadband package to their own requirements.
Tristia Clarke, Commercial Director, TalkTalk said “Our 500 Mobile Minutes Boost is simply the best value landline to mobile calls out there. Whether you’re someone who makes a few short calls to mobiles a month or lots of longer ones, you’ll be able to benefit from this boost.”
Notes to editors:
* 500 Mobile Minutes Boost: Inclusive minutes don’t roll over & any unused minutes are lost. Minutes can be used to call UK mobile numbers from a TalkTalk landline at anytime. Minutes used are rounded up & deducted from the inclusive allowance. Applicable allowance and charge will be pro-rated if added part way through a bill cycle. Calls in excess of the allowance will be charged in accordance with your tariff. Remaining minutes can be checked within My Account online. It can take up to 48 hours for the Boost to go live. You must give 48 hours notice to remove a Boost prior to the end of the 30-day billing period that applies to your account. If the Boost is removed through a customer’s bill cycle the full charge will still apply & is non-refundable.
