Eclipse?

I wonder what will happen to the former Eclipse Internet? I've been with them since ~2004, first on ADSL then 6 years ago moving to FTTC+Line rental. It was telling that they stopped taking on new retail customers around 2014 (I think) and now the inevitable conclusion of that plays out. I've had my exit routes planned for some time (Zen/A&A) but stayed put as things remain pretty sturdy (reliability wise) while their lack of interest in the retail customers meant no price rises, and not applying restrictions if you exceed your FTTC allowance.

What worries me is the remaining Eclipse customers end up being sold to the Broadband company graveyard that is Talk Talk, and then having a mad scramble to get me and parental units out fast enough before it all goes to shit.
