Important information about your speed estimate: We've signed up to Ofcom's broadband speeds voluntary code of practice and we'll always give you the fastest speed your line can handle for the product you have selected. As of November 2020, if a customer has an existing FTTC or G.Fast service and enters their full address or telephone number to check broadband availability, the actual speed of their current Broadband service will be used to determine the speed estimates that we give to our customers. A series of calculations will be made on the current line speed to determine the speed range & Minimum Speed Guarantee. For more information please visit Ofcom's website.

For customers using a postcode to check broadband speed, or who are currently without an FTTC or G.fast service, we will continue to use speed estimates from Openreach. These estimates are based on the performance of similar premises across the country. We'll do everything we can to give you a great experience online but the speed you get is likely to be affected by things outside of our control like the distance your home is from the cabinet and the telephone exchange, the specification of your computer and the condition of the wiring in your home. You may also notice a drop in your speeds during peak times in the evening and at weekends when more people are using the internet.

How we calculate our speed estimates

TalkTalk conforms to the testing principles set out in Annex 5 of the Better Broadband Speeds Voluntary Code of Practice.

Within the majority of the latest generation Wi-Fi Hubs that we provide to our customers we include TruSpeed© measurement software provided by our partner ASSIA. From this estate we have 10,000 lines that form a dedicated set of panellists that we use for measuring our network performance.

The test panel is spread over different broadband technologies and throughout the TalkTalk network covering over 750 telephone exchanges areas. Speed tests are run throughout the day, with each of the panellists’ Wi-Fi Hubs running tests every 2 hours against a speedtest server. The server is located outside of the TalkTalk network so that it isn’t subject to any favourable traffic handling. Speedtests use no more than 3 TCP threads and we avoid running tests in the presence of end user background traffic.

The sync rates of the panellists’ lines are recorded every time a test is run, and we compare the throughput result (actual speed) to the sync rate to calculate the percentage speed loss, if any, due to congestion. We particularly look at the speed results during peak hours (8-10pm) when our network is at its busiest. We take these speed results into account when quoting estimated broadband speeds for new customers and customers that are re-contracting.

For some higher speed services we also supplement our testing using SamKnow’s Whitebox’s installed in volunteers’ premises to ensure accurate measurements.

There is a monthly billing allowance on all TalkTalk packages. If you go over your allowance you will be barred from making outgoing calls from your TalkTalk landline (excluding calls to the emergency services) and you will be unable to select on-demand TV services. You will still need to pay for all charges in excess of your allowance limit. Please check My Account for further details.
