          @dfitzpatrick:
          Can't cast the AFL app..
          Maybe you can cast the screen though if you have a sufficiently powerful device (my only Snapdragon 400 certainly isn't)

          I'm planning to use Android x86 this year.
          Tried with my ANdroid TV stock last year, but kept running into periodic problems with location being incorrect.

      • Akuma on 02/03/2016 - 19:15

        It actually isn't restricted to any platform. Plus, NRL.com is managed by Telstra, so no licensing issues there.

        Once you link the Digital Pass with a Telstra account, you can use your Telstra login credentials to log in to the NRL Digital Pass on http://matchcentre.nrl.com for desktop, or the NRL app on any mobile device.

      I'm a Telstra cable customer too … but my mobile is with Vaya.

      How did you get the free pass being a Telstra cable customer?

  • frente69 on 01/03/2016 - 11:49

    Dialing #820# worked for me. Awesome thanks

  • phidj003 on 01/03/2016 - 12:12

    This didn't work out for me - a long chat with Telstra only to work out that I wasn't eligible for some unknown reason. After about 30 mins of live chat, ended up with having to cancel it (as it wouldn't set up correctly), but scored a $10 credit for my trouble.

    Thanks for the note though OP, maybe it's just because of when I signed up (as I already had an Apple Music promo attached)…

  • awkwardpaws on 01/03/2016 - 12:16

    thanks OP!

  • awkwardpaws on 01/03/2016 - 12:20

    So Telstra sends you two links in the SMS - one for NRL and one for AFL. I've gotten the NRL pass using one of the links.

    If someone can confirm that both can be used concurrently, I would be happy to send the AFL code to someone (assuming my NRL pass doesnt get taken away from me!)

    • ameno on 01/03/2016 - 12:44

      You can only activate one of the codes, whatever one you use essentially makes the other link invalid.

  • B-Moose on 01/03/2016 - 12:20

    Would love an AFL code if anyone has a spare, please PM. Cheers!

    I’m a little confused about how the expiry dates listed in the deal will work. I currently have an active free 12 month AFL subscription (from the last deal) that expires on 14 Dec 2016. Should I be able to activate this new offer once my current one expires, and before 31 Dec 2016 as stated, to get another 12 months (season 2017)? Or will this pass expire on 31 Jan 2017 as mentioned?

    • vanreek on 01/03/2016 - 14:56
      +1

      I also had the free 12 months from last year. It overrides your current subscription. Mine is now saying valid until 29/02/2016

      • bennythejet on 01/03/2016 - 15:19

        Good to know but I'm not wanting to override my current subscription. I'm hoping to score another free 12 months once my current one expires. :P
        Hoping someone may be able to confirm is this is possible?

  • GiggidyGoo on 01/03/2016 - 12:28

    If I remember correctly, last time we could cancel the subscription straight away and still have it for the year without worrying about auto renewal. Can anyone confirm?

  • tassieeagle on 01/03/2016 - 12:34

  • Strahany on 01/03/2016 - 12:34

    I assume that a non-telstra customer can create a Telstra ID (which I believe is required if you do not purchase this subscription through the App Store or Play Store), and then utilise the code sent to a telstra customer with this offer.

    If anyone won't be using their AFL code, I'd happily try to use it as above and report back with results.

  • aussieaubs on 01/03/2016 - 12:35

    Season pass should be "Mobile TV pass" or something
    Because, you know, sport is a real world thing and a season pass implies a membership to all the non-finals games. For a moment I thought I could save $400.

    I’m confused. I signed up OK, says I have the Live Pass for the year. I logged in on the AFL app OK too, but when I try and access “premium” content like past match replays, it doesn’t work. Takes me to the signup page telling me my “preview has finished”. What gives?

    • wisepage on 01/03/2016 - 16:15

      I told my borhter about it and it's working for him, won't work for me. In the AFL app when I go to the menu, it says "Subscribe" where his says "My Account".

      It also prompted him to sign in with a @telstra.com account, where mine uses my normal gmail account. I have used My Telstra account for cheap prepaid SIMs, and managing my inlaws Telstra account. I bet that's causing the issue. Ripped off!
      :(

    • natslovR on 02/03/2016 - 19:43

      Same thing happened to my father. Everything looks the same in the manage my account bit, identical apart from the welcome yournamehere message, but when he goes to play the premium content it offers subscription methods and a signup, whereas for me it plays the video :-(

      You absolutely sure? Both kids have iPad SIMS (Inserted in Android handsets), and they can send and receive SMS just fine.

      I can even call them! (They just can't dial out to me - Skype fixes that lol).

      Now, I'm FAR from an Apple expert, but maybe an app like this?

  • ilikeit on 01/03/2016 - 19:44

    OK before you all get too excited…don't. I picked up this deal when it was posted last year. I activated it last December in order to stream the whole season. I can't believe how disappointing it is. It looks like someone is filming their TV and then streaming it. The stream isn't even full screen! Google Live Stream for a far better alternative that's also free and live.

    • jv on 01/03/2016 - 20:45

      not sure what you're watching it on, it works great on my iPhone and iPad…

      • ilikeit on 01/03/2016 - 23:00

        Lenovo K3 Note and internet speed is fine. Ok, so I just checked out a few games e.g. Charity Shield. Stream was pretty good, not amazing, but acceptable. Also screen size was alright. During the 9's though, it was certainly below average for me as mentioned above. For the moment I will have a play with both NRL Pass and Live Stream and reserve my judgement until we are at least a few rounds deep. I prefer, however, to view it with LS on my PC. I can cast to my TV via my phone, but I think using Chromecast to TV is blocked via LS. $90 bucks is acceptable though if you have no Foxtel, but LS is free. I just cancelled my Foxtel, but miss all the footy related shows. Wife is happy though…

      • ilikeit on 08/03/2016 - 21:15

        Watched all of the non Channel 9 games on a combination of NRL and Livestream. NRL app is crap. It is created so that it is only viewable at certain sizes (mobile devices) with no chromecast support. Nrl app disappointingly took about 50% of the screen. Livestream was full screen on ipad and mobile phone. Using Android I was able to screen cast it to my TV. However, coming from HD Foxtel it pales. Free though. You need to unblock the geo restriction, but I'm sure most OZB users have Getflix or similar already. Some more user reviews: https://www.reddit.com/r/nrl/comments/49fhlv/question_about_…

      yeh, not sure what you are on about… works great on iphone, ipad, android tablet..
      i loved it, watched about 6 games a week, plus all the video news/highlights.. great when you arent in an AFL state…
