      • spackbace on 06/04/2019 - 19:50

        Foxtel always has a EOFY sale don't they? Interesting to see what more they do, especially once the rush over GOT dies down

        • dins on 06/04/2019 - 20:07

          Yeah still this is a decent offer tho I reckon. Just don't see them offering the same/similar plans for too much less. I mean with Kayo being a very reasonable $25/month this is basically $23/month extra for iQ4 + Drama/Movies etc and the basic pack. Not bad.

        that was what Foxtel staff initially told me when I signed up for the package and told them I wanted to swap from Movies to Drama when GoT started, they said no worries. However, it took me 3 phone calls (1 hour) to Foxtel to ask them to swap out for me yesterday and today, yet they have not been able to do it. They said they will call me back next Monday.

        You also have serie A and La Liga and the french league too.

            @tightm8: Not a good comparison. Only one team from the EPL has won the Champions League in the last 10 years. La Liga teams have won it 7 times in the same period. The other leagues might not have as much depth as the EPL but their top few teams are as good as, if not better than, the top EPL teams.

            • tommy-darko on 07/04/2019 - 00:53

              @Pulseidon: Whilst those leagues are good, my heritage is English so I watch the Championship to see how my club, Leeds United are getting on and the Scottish league to watch the Aussie contingent over there. Serie A and La Liga are usually a 2 horse race, whereas the EPL provides a bit more competition and interest.

      Exactly why Uncle Rupert hired his mates to cripple FTTP for a decade or so. To give him time for his underlings to adapt the lumbering Foxtel business model to the age of high speed content delivery.

      I'd personally like to see the HD sport coverage go elsewhere and watch Foxtel struggle and die, but I'm still holding a grudge over MTM.

          It'll be a long wait, Netflix have always said they're not interested in sports, live or otherwise.

          Sports (notably the NRL) seem to bandy this "wait until Netflix or Google buys our rights", neither are interested. Dor NRL & AFL its basically free to air and/or Foxtel. Very few people outside Australia are interested in our sporting codes. So it's not like ESPN or Bein sports are interested in paying top $'s. Cricket & Rugby are different as they have international comps so have international appeals.

          Amazon might, as they're having a go at tennis & some soccer in the UK, but only because they picked them up for bugger-all.

          The best bet is sports following NHL, NBA, et and sell subscriptions directly, but it won't be cheaper.

      • Melo on 07/04/2019 - 00:23

    Interesting times for Foxtel, since the new marketing boss arrived last month.
    First, a deal with the Herald-Sun (and probably with other NL mastheads) to provide a cut-price Kayo Sports deal, and now this, spreading the love to multi-package deals at a discount.
    Still chasing the new customer though, with no love for the long-term loyals. But, some signs of realistic pricing.

    • Trying2SaveABuck on 06/04/2019 - 22:23

      I have Kayo current 2 month 5$ deal but the quality is very hit and miss and i live in a area without NBN or cable only ADSL2+ so that might be why but i wouldnt pay 25 a month for it should be 5-10 a month at best

      I think foxtel is still 60-70% too expensive considering besides sports there is no original content and a truck load of ads

    You'd think with the rise of Stan, Netflix etc

      Netflix and co don't have to pay for hefty sports broadcasting rights, equipment and installation etc. Not a Foxtel fan but if you actually break things down it's a pretty decent deal this one for mine.

      Sports HD + 4K channel ($20/mth)
      Drama/Movies HD ($10/mth)
      Basic Entertainment Pack HD ($8/mth)

        Mate consumers dont care about anything other then price for product if rights are to costly then fox needs to change there business to compete

        48 per month is 4 months of nexflixs or stan which as i said are better services

            Nrl i dont mind but i wouldnt pay to watch it

            I like AFL but there is enough games on FTA and if my team is playing on fox and i really want to watch ill kayo job it or go to a bar
