However I find their very amateurish website very off-putting.
For example, take a look at this page:
https:/ /www.pr emierta lk.co.u k/Home- Phone.h tm
Points to note there:
1. None of the four 'Get this deal' links work ;
2. The £ sign, in the price tariff, has been replaced a question mark in a diamond, as has something else (a 'bullet' perhaps) in the 'cheaper home line rental' section (which lacks a capital letter in its title). All very amateurish, in my opinion! ;
3. Call rates are given (as 'from 1p per minute') to "International Top 20 Countries" but nowhere on the site are the actual rates (or, indeed, the actual countries) mentioned ;
4. The 'rate per minute' offer for international calls doesn't seem to tie in with the '£2.50 per month' quoted on the site's home page ;
5. A professional website should have a link to the home page from the company logo at the top left. There is no such link ;
6. There's an invitation, towards the foot of the page, to call 'Premier Direct', on a London number, for cheap energy prices but the Companies House listing show that there's no limited company with that name and Google only finds a laundry firm in Halifax ;
7. The domain name 'premiertalk.co.uk' was created back in 2011, so the business seems to have been around for quite a while. However the Companies House website shows that Premier Talk Ltd, registered to the same address that's shown on the website, was actually dissolved in January 2010 and so 'officially' seems not to have exist for the past thirteen years (despite that being the name of the company which is shown right at the bottom of the web page).
8. The company's address is nothing more than a rented office in a big block which, oddly, is different to the address shown on the 'Sign Up' page (which is simply a rented office in a different block anyway).
It all looks very much like some sort of cowboy outfit to me. The problem with signing up with a cowboy is, of course, that you can never be sure whether you'll get a goody, like John Wayne, or a baddy, like Jack Palance!
