Everything you need to know about the Post Office
The Post Office is state owned, and far from delivering letters now offers broadband and phone services through the TalkTalk network.
Until 2017 Post Office only sold standard ADSL broadband offering maximum speeds of 17Mbps. Fibre services were added in August 2017.
The Post Office bought out collapsed ISP Fuel Broadband in August 2017, taking on around 60,000 customers.
Fair warning, Post Office landline phone services have consistently negative reviews from Ofcom and its broadband services are reported to have lower-than-expected speeds.
