TalkTalk is ending free email services for hundreds of thousands of former broadband customers, requiring a £5/month or £50/year fee to keep accounts active via new provider Everymail. This affects addresses like @talktalk.net, @lineone.net, and others, with sending disabled from July 28, 2025, login cut off after September 8, 2025, and full deletion by October 31, 2025.[1][2][4]
Key Timeline
- July 28, 2025: No sending emails without payment; receiving still possible.[1]
- September 8, 2025: Login blocked unless subscribed.[4]
- October 31, 2025: Accounts deleted permanently.[2]
User Impact
Current TalkTalk broadband users retain free email, but ex-customers must migrate or pay. TalkTalk notified affected users; beware phishing scams mimicking these emails. Community forums show confusion and peer support shifts as of March 2026.[6][7][9][2]
