Why does TalkTalk not provide sip address for residential customer wishing to use a voip phone. People are not able to configure a voip phone without a sip[ address.

TalkTalk Consumer does not offer a competitive VOIP tariff and does not try to compete with the VOIP service companies offering cheap calls.

The TalkTalk Digital Voice service (VOIP) is offered to some customers and all they need is a standard BT approved handset / base station. No VOIP 'phone is required.

In my opinion because TalkTalk don't wish to support VOIP 'phones. Hey, if you've gone to the expense of buying a VOIP 'phone then why don't you port the VOIP service to a VOIP service provider that will not only give you the setup details they'll offer you a cheaper tariff for VOIP calls. Why stick with standard call charges when you can save big-time?

NB porting out a number may well require a cease and re-provide of the broadband service.
