depends how much you value your net access and an easy life. If you get into problems with talk talk the support calls, time and stress could cost you way more than the tenner a month you're hoping to save. On the other hand it could work fine - are you on ADSL now ?

Do they have a cheaper package or will they "make you an offer" if you're thinking of leaving ?

Dare I say it?, will I jinx myself? should I be bold enought to say that "I am a happy customer that has saved pounds on phonecalls, call abroad free and have my internet free forever"
Instead of paying my monthly fee to BT, it goes to Talktalk, and my other outgoing is less than

no need to shout.

Like I said, "On the other hand it could work fine".

If it doesn't, take the crucifixion option.

As you don't have a BT line at present finding out what speed you will get from ADSL is hit and miss.

If you know a neigbhours phone number a rough guide of the possible speed can be obtained from http://www.btwholesale.com/getbroadband

A point to consider, even when an ISP sells an up to 8Mbps service, if you are a fair distance from the exchange then there is nothing they can do to make things run faster, i.e. you might only get a 1Mbps speed from ADSL, you might go faster of course. Location in relation to the telephone exchange building is the key.
