How do you get a talktalk email address?

Hi @%^&*& with great difficulty at the moment as mailbox creation is suspended at the moment for "backend enhancements"

Why not create a freebie for the time being with Google or Outlook or Apple?

Hi %^&*&, you can't as Divsec has said. There are lots of other alternatives that are free.

If I wanted a freebie I would not be on here asking for help

Well, you've had your answer. It can't be done.

ISP email addresses are not as useful as they once were, @%^&*&, so not sure that it's worth worrying about ever getting one now.

They were once promised "for life", but that's now at a price, as the only way to keep them long term if you leave a supplier is to pay eg £5.00 a month to keep them going.

While they are "inclusive" in your broadband service, Talktalk restricts sending from some places abroad if they suspect spam from these locations.

If you are away on holiday, you should still receive your emails but sometimes cannot send from the address. This could cause problems if you were trying to reach a holiday company / airline etc while abroad, so for anything to do with travel and any vital documentation for transactions in your life, I would never use an ISP provided email address in case you are let down when it matters.

The main freebies are a safer bet in these circumstances.
