AOL Broadband is a UK internet service provider and part of the TalkTalk Group[1].

History

The UK ISP side of AOL was bought by The Carphone Warehouse in October 2006 for $688m (£370m) to take advantage of their 100,000 LLU customers which made The Carphone Warehouse the biggest LLU provider in the UK.[2][3]

The deal included an agreement to continue customers access to the AOL portal content.[4]
