    • so is this a targeted deal?

      • +1

        Probably. To everyone who doesn't currently have the Movies Pack.

      • +3

        Targeted to tight arses :P

    • +3

      Change "JV" in the URL to whatever you want and it changes the name on the letter. Here's my go

  • +9

    "no strings attached"

    I have to sign up to Foxtel…that's the string ;)

  • +2

    Do I have to do anything to activate this?

  • "All you need to do is select ‘Movies’ in your TV guide."

    Foxtel is a dying company…. there I said it.

    Streaming services will kill foxtel, sure it might take a few years but foxtel will go the same way as blockbuster video.

    It already starting to happen in America.

    5 years from now foxtel will be a shadow of what it is today.

    • +7

      live sport, till AFL/NRL/Cricket manage to do it to the same standard as NBA.tv or similar it'll stick around.

    • +3

      There you said it?

      People have been saying that for years.

    • +2

      It already starting to happen in America.

      OK.

      5 years from now foxtel will be a shadow of what it is today.

      If you look at what's happening in America you'll see paid TV is doing very well so I'm not sure why you think that.

    • Unfortunately the coalition are buying the 2 old hfc networks, and their going to be filling in the blackspots, effectively giving a big boost to good ol Rupert's foxtel… Sure rupert has to pay a connection fee if someone connects foxtel via the new 'hfc nbn', but i'm sure it's a pittance compared to how much it would have cost him to fix his own network.

    • +1

      I agree, but streaming requires aussie internet(and the nbn polices) to get its head out of its ass!

  • deleted…

  • Foxtel need to change their name and relaunch.

    • +2

      No point, Netflix will dominate easily.

      • way too expensive to compete with the cheaper steaming market. Most people nowadays know the tv shows they want to watch and Netflix is a perfect fit for that. Most of the good Tv shows on Foxtel are gone or are rarely on, I used to love tuning into TLC to watch that man smother himself with ridiculous amounts of food.

  • so, can I record as many movies as I can and watch it at a later date (outside the promotion period) using the IQ2?

    • Yes.

      • +1

        Errr - Are you sure, a couple of years ago this worked for me, but the last few years after the promo has expired the movies have stayed on the IQ2 box but have been unavailable for viewing without an upgrade.

        • I take it it's the same with regular iq

        • Can anyone clarify this? I'd like to know if I have to binge watch a stack of movies this weekend lol

        • +1

          @Giraffe:
          Once it's on your IQ it should be there till you delete it..

  • +1

    COR, that's enough to watch every film they release for most of the year, the other 50 weeks are just repeats

  • +1

    People pay for TV now?

  • +3

    Getting rid of Foxtel was so $atisfying.

  • Will i automatically be able to watch movies at midnight?

    • +2

      You'll have to wake up first.

      • And turn on the TV.

  • +5

    Switched to Netflix and everything suddenly felt a whole lot better.

    • +4

      except no AFL

    • +6

      If Netflix had live f1, I would need no other service

      • Tried pressing the plus button multiple times, but it doesn't work so:

        +1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1

  • Just got my email then

  • +5

    I'm surprised so many ozbargainers have foxtel, no bargains there at all

    • +11

      Tell me how else am I supposed to watch the A-League, UEFA Champions League, EPL, AFL in HD for under $60 per month?

      • i feel ya brother

      • +2

        True OzBargainers rub rocks together and throw sticks for their daily entertainment!!

    • +1

      I subscribed to Foxtel (minimum HD package $60) just for the sports. Nothing else. What finally pushed me over the edge is Foxtel grabbing half the Formula 1 coverage for the next five years. I don't care about the documentaries, movies, kids channels, etc. Just having a reliable stream of select live sport I want to watch is enough for me.

      Once I got Foxtel I discovered just how much 'filler' content there is. Dozens of junk channels that I doubt many people watch. A dedicated home shopping channel? Oh yeah, hot viewing right there.

  • +2

    Great for something to watch in the meantime before the new EPL season starts. Cheers!

  • If only there are streaming services covering various sporting events!

    • Only a matter of time…

      • Sooner, the better.

    • Youtube seems to be ever so slowly moving into the space.

  • All you need to do is select ‘Movies’ in your TV guide.

    So no activation required ?
    Does it mean I just need to switch to channel 401 upwards on Foxtel and do nothing else?

  • +1

    12:07am here in melbourne and it's not working for me yet aha. not really that I care as long as I have my sports channels… and Fox8 for the good ol' cartoons

  • I got foxtel via telstra and its still greyed out via my lemon IQ3.. no email of the offer either.

    edit: Actually looks like its slowly being activated some movies channels work some dont…

  • Actually after unplugging my IQ2 from the power, it has now gained access to the movie channels!

  • Mine's busy recording stuff now (just have the basic package)

    But after being on Netflix for a while, I was amused to see quite a number of the movies are on Netflix anyway… If anything, it's showing why NOT to pay $25pm more for Foxtel movies…

  • excluding Optus TV feat Foxtel customers.

    I got Foxtel from Optus and works for me and in HD* too.

    *Probably because I already have the HD pack

    ~Edit: I realised the bit about excluding Optus is about the FOXTEL go app.

  • Its working for me. I am on Telstra Foxtel. Thanks OP.

    I dont understand how this works. When I " All you need to do is select ‘Movies’ in your TV guide." it takes me to this link : https://www.foxtel.com.au/got/whats-on/tv-guide/grid.html How do I get to watch the free movies ?

    • Movie channels are from 401 to 415 on your remote just select Chanel on remote

      • -3

        Duh. And I was doing it on the website :P
        Thanks mate. I will check it out when I go home.

  • Yep worked for me
