talktalk buy tiscali got this in my inbox at work this morning: Dear all It’s probably the world’s worst kept secret, but we have announced this morning that TalkTalk has agreed to buy Tiscali's UK operations for £236m. This makes TalkTalk the UK's largest residential broadband provider with over 4.25 million customers putting us ahead of both BT and Virgin Media. This is an incredibly proud moment for us all. Who could have imagined when we started selling voice services that we would become the largest home broadband provider in the UK? It hasn’t always been easy, but it shows what you can achieve with real determination. Thank you to every single person in the organisation who has made it possible, we have been on an amazing journey. Whether it was working in TalkTalk/AOL Broadband, selling the service in stores or on the phone or even just being a customer, you have played a part in making this happen and you should be very proud. We have created something amazing and I see enormous potential for us. The combination of the two businesses creates a significant force - it will allow us to innovate quicker and continue to offer the very best value phone and broadband in the market. If you or your teams have any queries from Tiscali customers please welcome them to TalkTalk and re-assure them that their service will remain exactly as it is today. We have set up a special website to answer all their questions, the link for this is www.talktalk.co.uk/tiscali Another great day in our history... Yours ever, Charles.
