TalkTalk has today revealed its quarterly results for Q1 (ending last March) and apparently things are looking up for the provider and its child firm, AOL.

You might recall that the ISP was losing out on subscribers while Ofcom's customer satisfaction surveys constantly ranked the firm at the very bottom of the food chain.

During Q1, TalkTalk saw another fixed-line broadband subscriber drop of 13,000 (which is much softer than 43,000 during the quarter before). This means that currently TalkTalk's customer base reaches 4,066,000.

According to the ISP, part of the reason why things are looking brighter is the fact that it started offering superfast fibre broadband. This move managed to score the supplier 4,000 new customers during the quarter.

In a statement supporting the results, Dido Harding, head of TalkTalk, said:

"We will achieve our growth and margin targets through continued expansion of our network, further operating efficiencies, adding more services to become a genuine quad play, growing scale in our business to business operations and increasing our sales of superfast broadband.

"We believe the successful implementation of this strategy, supported by our financial strength, will deliver significant customer and shareholder value."

Meanwhile, TalkTalk still plans to go ahead with the launch of YouView. This is scheduled for the summer - think Q2 or Q3.
