    SHOCKING company! Avoid like the proverbial plague!

    They had some 1p a month offers a few weeks ago with the price set for 3 months. It went super hot on here and they seem to have underestimated the response. It took an age to get the sims and then not long after, they changed the minimum term to 12 months and hid it behind a link in an email - they listed some other inconsequential fluff in the actual email but not the, "oh by the way, if you dont cancel by the 13th, you're actually locked in for 12 months"!

    People on here played holy hell, they were reported to the ombudsmen, got hammered on social media and trust pilot etc and then, after huge numbers of people cancelled, realized the huge backlash they'd unleashed and then sent an email out saying that if you want to carry on, there's no 12 month lock in and, oh, if you've already cancelled, no problem, just contact customer services and they'll set next month up and keep the promo price running!

    I actually tired to do that and was told in no uncertain terms, that wasnt an option! I then waited a day to hear from a supervisor who said they'd straightened things out and would comp me the next 2 months (a whole 2p) if I wanted to stay!

    Plenty of people on here complained about the data speeds when tested side by side with their existing EE sim's as well.


    (excuse the same reply on both TalkHome posts OP, but I was stunned at how poor of an operation this lot are!)

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I apologise for the inconvenience our usage term updates caused earlier.

    We rolled back on these updates due to the overwhelming response from many of our customers who wanted to resume their subscription on a monthly rolling plan.

    Our support team has tried their best to accommodate our valuable customers, take onboard any and all feedback, and I understand how you still feel about this.

    If there's a chance we can have you back in the future, we'd love to.

    Have a great day.

    Kudos to 1p Mobile.

    We're working to roll out VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling capabilities on Talk Home soon. I do not have an ETA for when this will be available, but rest assured, it's in the works.

    Hi,

    I'm sorry about your experience earlier. We rolled back the 12-month terms update due to an overwhelming response from our valuable customers.

    Rest assured, our exclusive welcome offers are all monthly rolling plans, and you can cancel anytime.

    We'll be more than happy to have you back, should you choose.

    It's 2023. Sans volte and WiFi calling, it's a no go. Plus no esim is a big negative. Shame.

    All of these capabilities are in the works and will be rolled out to our valuable customers in the coming months.

    I don't have an ETA to share at this moment but we are indeed working on bringing eSIM, VoLTE, and WiFi calling capabilities to Talk Home.

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

    Hope this helps.

    Bretta My sim has not been activated yet and I deleted my card details out after the 12 month fiasco. Can I just try your sim for the month? Had the 4gb deal 3p for the 3 months. Many thanks.

    Also how is non-EU roaming so cheap? 1p/MB for SA, That’s amazing.

    Also what 4g and 5g bands do you have access to? Band Nr28 for the 5g long range band? M
    Many thanks (edited)

    Hi there,

    Did you also cancel your subscription? Apologies about the term usage update announcement and the inconvenience it caused earlier.

    If you only removed your payment details, and did not cancel subscription, your new user offer should work just fine for the first month.

    Let me have someone from tech support verify non-EU roaming charges for you and I'll get back to you on this as well as your question about our 4G/5G bands.

    Thank you.

    Hello
    If i get 20gb £3 for 3 months(40gb in 1st month), how much data can i use in italy out of that 40gb within that 1st month?
    Is there any data cap or upto “x”gb is allowed to use wile in EU? What would the maximum data allowance in EU(italy)? Please

    Many thanks
    TalkhomeCS's avatar
    TalkhomeCS
    Hi there,

    No, we currently don't cap data allowances when roaming in the EU. However, please note that the free EU roaming does not include your double data allowance.

    To simplify, you can use the standard 20GB data in Italy (or wherever in the EU), and the extra 20GB data you get for the first month can only be used in the UK.

    Hope this helps.

    I did go for this deal last week, but cancelled it after they changed the small print to 12 months. I like the idea of roaming in the EU, I went over to RWG which is a welsh company, Im in Scotland btw. NowMobile is another company that does the same price and can use all your data in the EU.

    Non of these networks, including TalkHome have Wifi calling, RWG dpes not even have an app (lol), but said they are working on an app and also working on wifi calling (edited)

    Sorry about the reviews as of late and how they made you feel. The reviews came in due to our usage terms update announcement, which we have since rolled back. We heard the unanimous voice of our customers loud and clear and take pride in putting things back to where they were originally.

    All our new user offers are now monthly rolling plans (this applies to all existing and all new customers), so you can cancel anytime. We're working hard to put things right, and a quick glimpse into our latest reviews might show you that.

    Here's us hoping you'll give us a chance. If not now, maybe sometime in the future.

    Have a great day.

    Hi,

    Thanks for sharing your experience. We don't indulge in data shaping or throttling of any kind. Regarding your experience with Talk Home 5G:
    5G connectivity is available for both Android & iOS devices (iOS devices with v16.4 update). To experience the speed and reliability of 5G, you will need a 5G ready device and must be in a 5G coverage area.

    If you are using 5G and enter an area with only a 4G, 3G, or 2G signal, your phone will automatically swap to that instead. It will switch back to 5G as soon as a 5G signal is available.

    The 50GB extra data is shown as a separate add-on inside your dashboard and on the My THM app. Rest assured, you'll get 100GB for the first month. Hope this helps!

    Thank you.

    Any idea if Talk Home supports eSIM? I can find an article on their blog, but it seems incredibly generic. Need something to replace my ToTheMoon SIM in the next 4 weeks or so if they pop their cloggs!

    Hi there! 👋🏽

    We don't offer eSIM services at present. This is, however, something we're working on and will be available in the coming months. I don't have an ETA to share with you, but please be assured that we're working on introducing eSIM capabilities for our valuable customers.

    If you're interested in trying things out once eSIM functionality is available, please drop a message to cs-mobile@talkhome.co.uk and we'll let you know soon as it is available. If there's any possibility that a physical SIM card works, we'd love to have you today!

    Have a great day.

    I wonder If this company is anywhere like Plusnet I don't mind giving it a go service signal wise!

    I'm not into the 5G gimmick, with a couple of 100GB or less data allowance.
    Only need that speed to download or upload tonnes of data real fast.

    4G is capable of getting the job done just fine no probs.

    Can we set a spending cap on the app or whatever? (edited)
    TalkhomeCS's avatar
    TalkhomeCS
    Hi there,

    Our monthly rolling plans automatically renew each month so that you won't be charged more than once each month for your subscription.

    Secondly, our PAYG plans work just like add-ons and are only valid for a period of 30 days (unless you enable auto-renew), after which they expire. Auto-renewal will only take place after 30 days.

    The same is true for our data bolt-ons, should you need more data.

    The only area where a spending cap is required (and it is there!) is enabling auto top-up to add credit to your SIM card, which I'm sure you won't need as long as your payment method is credit card/PayPal.

    Hope this information helps, and we'd love to have you with us!

    Thanks.

    Bretta can you elaborate on this 1year sim please? 250 mins and texts and 1gb data every month for a year. Does it reset every calendar month?

    Someone signed up and it says £15 a month which would be a total rip off. 
    TalkhomeCS's avatar
    TalkhomeCS
    Apologies for the misunderstanding. There was a glitch in the invoice the system generated where the invoice said £15 per month. This was an error, and we were able to identify it quickly. This has since been fixed.

    I can confirm it is indeed a one-time charge of £15. Our customers who have subscribed to the 1-year SIM plan will also be charged just once and not per month.

    Hope this helps.
