Tiscali UK to go National

Tiscali UK plans to extend its IPTV service nationally. Its broadband service should be available to 10 million homes in the UK by the end of 2007. The service includes:
  • Over 60 TV & radio channels
  • Over 350 on demand programs
  • On demand access to over 1,000 movies
  • Free 7 day BBC, C4 and FX NPVR catch up service
  • Phone line rental included
  • Set-top box and free wireless router included
  • £30 ($60) setup fee
This services will offer two broadband/TV packages:

  • Up to 2 Mbps for £19.99 ($40) per month with all UK and international weekend calls
  • Up to 8 Mbps for £24.99 ($50) per month with all UK and international anytime calls

Also available for an extra £22 ($44) per month will also get you the Sky Sports channels.

Tiscali UK is attempting to significantly improve its position in the UK broadband market. This should help. The broadcast content differentiates it from the BT Vision. Its package is similar to the successful broadband packages available in France.
