Officials prepare for TalkTalk's possible collapse

Officials prepare for TalkTalk's possible collapse

Talktalk

Broadband provider TalkTalk could go into administration within days after a rescue sale stalled, the Telegraph reports, with officials preparing because some national security networks partly rely on its systems. Its 1.5 million customers include more than 250,000 vulnerable households, some reliant on home dialysis machines and personal alarms. TalkTalk declined to comment, and the government said it does not comment on speculation.
