      Just remember to cancel if you don't want to pay $100/mo for it or at least drop down to something cheaper.

      When you cancel, you can watch until the subscription expires, so cancelling early in the last month is advised.

      I trialled Foxtel Now and the only difference was Foxtel TV programming. Every so often I’d accidentally flip over to Sky TV (which incidentally seemed to be the default channel..) and get a spray from some toxic head.

      Otherwise, they seems to have the Simpsons on 24/7, and Comedy Central was a paid extra.

      It was absolutely not work the extra vs. Binge.

      Edit: also it has adverting, what a joke.

      Not much. I use Binge and am not missing any of the programs I used to watch on Foxtel. Since Binge is owned by Foxtel and Foxtel is losing money in the billions, I suspect this deal is another attempt by their marketing to stop Foxtel haemorrhaging money.

      Rupert Murdoch, like Donald Trump, doesn't like to admit defeat to competitors like Netflix and is prepared to keep pumping money into Foxtel to keep his hand in the tv media pie in Australia. Luckily for us, hardly anyone in Australia watches his mouthpiece Fox news programs on Foxtel unlike in America where Fox News WAS the mouthpiece of Trump and Murdoch.

        Where do trumpets go now for their fix?

        There was a poll the other day that suggested 70% of Republicans deny Biden as president / the election result. Pretty scary. I'm just glad Fox News isn't going along with most of the crazy conspiracy theories.

        Court cases have mostly been thrown out, 30 losses to 1 'victory' a day or two ago, just a waste of resources while 1-2k die daily (on the increase).

          It's interesting to hear people bash Trump/Fox News and base this opinion on purely on other media outlets that are equally bad.

          The reason you don't understand Trump's strategy (and you'd be naive to think there isn't one) is because the media you listen to doesn't do the in-depth analysis that they should. Orange Man Bad has been the headline for 4 years, we all deserve better than this.

          Also, if you're interested in trying to understand the Trump phenomena, I'm happy to try and share some insight that the media never gets into, the trick is to not to get sucked into the Political Team Sport narrative.

                  You seem to be confusing the word 'mandate' with 'media opinion'. A 'mandate' is the official process which doesn't complete until Jan 20 according the to actual law.

                  It's also worth pointing out, that although unlikely, Trump still has a path to victory. And any competent leader should always pursue victory when available. Personally I prefer a leader that is prepared to fight for a win over a leader that is happy to capitulate at the first sign of failure. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

                So the presidents before them conceding are what? Idiots for doing so? What Trump is doing is hindering and or delaying the peaceful transfer of power. Maybe even be considered scorched earth policy burning the place down so to speak. Firing anyone who disagrees with him.

                If he is truly serious about running for president again in 2024 he is doing a bang up job at portraying a leader gracious in defeat. A leader who wants to stay as president and yet ain't doing what he is suppose to be doing as potus should be. Like attending meetings with global leaders responding to the pandemic.

                  It seems lots of Australians are caught up in some weird fictional narrative where they think Biden would be running the country if only Trump would concede, when it is simply not true. I don't know why so many non-Americans are so personally invested in who runs America anyway to be honest, it must be the influence of the American media machine. We have remained strong allies with America regardless of who they pick for their leader, it will have no impact on us.

              he's a bad loser and is in dental and squatting in the white house.

              I suggest you educate yourself on how the legal process of the election works.
              Firstly official results haven't been certified yet. So sure it will likely turn out that Trump loses the election, but the idea that he should concede because the media said so is ludicrous.

              Some key dates you may not be aware of, because your media sources deliberately obfuscate this detail to serve their narrative:
              December 14 is when the Electoral College votes, until this time there is no official winner or loser.
              Once a winner has being officially decided, that person doesn't take office until Jan 20.
              So in any situation, until Jan 20 Trump is the duly elected President of the US. Everything else is deliberate media deception.

The reason they always concede is so there is a peaceful transition to the new government between November and January. Except Trump is going for the exact opposite. I'm sure he's not actively trying to do as much damage to the US as he possibly can on his way out, but it's a side effect of his inability to handle losing.

                    These major media outlets aren't exactly pulling them numbers out their backsides. They have been tabulating them as the numbers where coming in from electoral colleges/counties. From there they are making an educated guess as to who won the election.

                    Currently a lot of Trumps so called allegations of widespread fraud have been lacking in evidence. Many of the court cases have been thrown out.

    When you go online to cancel, they usually offer a save routine offering $10 off your subscription. It's before you confirm your cancellation of course, so worth a shot starting the process if you want to potentially save some money.

            @sween64: I'll stick with $0 per month and an actual copy of the file to watch when offline.

              @KangaDrew: I'd rather not have to pay for storage and manage files and am always online anyway. Each to their own.

                @sween64: 12Gb hard drives are super cheap these days. And on a long haul flight, it's hard to knock back the convenience of a bunch of video files on your Macbook to binge on and pass the time. Granted, flying has been rather limited as of late!

          You realise he sold all of his content to Disney right? He only kept the news assets and a little bit of sports. I guess he gets his pockets lined as he owns 5% of Disney.

        Initially advertising, now he controls the medium and has power to influence hundreds of millions of peoples’ opinions.

        Don't forget the Brits too. He used to own Sky.

          What most Aussies who have never lived in the US don't realise is all those awesome shows that were on 1 or 2 Foxtel channels , and are now on the 4 or 5 streaming services they collectively pay $100 a month for, are on about 10 different cable channels in the US. And as each of them release their own streaming service, it's free for cable subscribers. Just ESPN alone the wholesale cost is like $12 a month for each subscriber.
          As for TV ads, the channel itself owns the advertising revenue in the US, not the cable company.

          • kiriakoz on 22/11/2020 - 15:24

            @Capitalshark: I don't know ANYONE who pays anywhere near $100/month for streaming services. You must work for Murdoch. I've not hardly watched an advert for about 10 years, so find it pretty hard to begin watching them again.

            • Capitalshark on 22/11/2020 - 15:43

              @kiriakoz: Add the cost of internet to 4 streaming services and kayo for sports . I don't work for Murdoch nor do I have Foxtel.

              • kiriakoz on 22/11/2020 - 18:33

                @Capitalshark: I pay for Spotify & Netflix, and that's it. My dad pays for Optus Sport, which seems to allow two logins, so I use his.

                I'm not including internet because I used to purchase that before I ever had streaming services.

                If you include iView, YouTube to that, I have what I personally need. I have a list of shows that I haven't even gotten around to watching yet.

                That's $25.

    You should warn people: I believe Foxtel has advertising, even though you pay for it. Is that still true?

    • Merlict on 21/11/2020 - 22:14

      It has an absolute assload of ads. Mainly for other Foxtel shows but for a paid service it's gross.

      • stickyfingers on 21/11/2020 - 23:04

        Never understood that. I find the ads for other stuff on Foxtel more annoying than brand ads. Why do they play them so much?

        • toasty on 21/11/2020 - 23:19
          +7

          They’re like filler/fluff. More ads means less actual content needs to be licensed.

            @toasty: But surely they could run more actual brand ads? The Foxtel ones are so repetitive they drive me nuts (don't actually have Foxtel, watch it in hotels).

              @stickyfingers: They could if they had more people/businesses actually wanting to advertise on foxtel, but aside from 'real life insurance' and 'step one' there is not a lot of other paid ad's on there.

              My parents still have foxtel. I have no idea why they pay for it, my dad always complains about how terrible it is but he keeps paying for it for nearly 30 years now I reckon. It was good at the start, I remember as a kid watching Simpson's on the weekends with no ads at all. Then over time they slowly worked ads into the programming and it just got worse and worse. Now it is ridiculous how many ads there are. Absolute joke…

                @Shaun Prawn: That's how I remember Foxtel. Back in the late 90's / Early 00's when my parents first got it. No ads, bingeing on Fox8/Simpsons and Channel V.
                Ad's? It's called PAYTV so you avoid the advertising! (Well that's how I always thought it should be)

                BTW: If you're a Telstra member, check out the Telstra 24x7 app and see if you have any deals waiting! I did this last month and had 6 months FREE Binge. My boss checked his and he only had 3 months, but hey, try your luck.

          I never understood why an advertiser would pay for ads on Foxtel. I record everything and fast forward through them all. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

    • toasty on 21/11/2020 - 22:15

      Yes, Murdoch is milking tax payers, subscribers and advertisers on Foxtel. I imagine it takes a lot of coin to prop up News Corp.

    • scottishdave on 22/11/2020 - 09:49

      Most of the programs, apart from those from the BBC, are from overseas commercial tv stations and are between 20 and 25 minutes long to provide space for commercials. Foxtel has to stuff them with self promotion ads and commercials to fill the gap and earn some cash to try and plug the billions of dollars in losses.
      I used to record all the programs and then fast forward through the ads.

    Also just a pro tip for those who don't know this, I've been doing the below for a while now.

    My dad pays $59 for NBN 50 with foxtel and from memory $89 for foxtel premium including Netflix and multiroom (I set this all up). You have to do a bit of negotiating need to get this price. They can only go so low as their system has a limiter for the public which I know for a fact.

    The multiroom gives you access to foxtel now for 2 other devices that are being streamed at the same time so essentially the foxtel and Netflix is split into thirds between myself, dad and one of his friends.

    So basically under 30 bucks a month for every channel, Netflix premium is as good as it gets. Also watching foxtel on the foxtel now box has greatly improved over the years in which I recommend to use that box as you can connect all your FTA TV and sideload apps like popcorn time on there.

    Foxtel were also nice enough to give me $59 NBN 50 connection, though their routers are absolute junk and would bin them straight away. Luckily we had a few Telstra ones laying around.

        Need to phone them up and play hardball. Tell them your friend introduced you to Foxtel service and you know what he is paying, ask them to match it.

    I would never pay to see ads. What's the point of of paying for TV to see ads. Too many channels of garbage increasing their costs. They need to get rid of the fluff and ads, reduce the cost and they might have a value proposition that might be appealing.

      That's why I stick with BT downloads, Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. Advertisements kill me slowly…

    Does this have hbo max, probably worth it as wonder woman 1984 would be released this year

    • ChadHominem on 21/11/2020 - 23:05

      No HBO max in aus
      Pirate if you want, not illegal in aus ;)

    • jimbobaus on 22/11/2020 - 08:24

      Yes and no.
      HBO max content is exclusive to Foxtel with a very few exceptions (fresh prince reunion was on stan)
      So while no hbo Max in aus you do get to see everything they produce on Foxtel and by default also on Binge.

      My mate worked for Foxtel collections department 20 years and was made redundant recently along with many others, apparently they are down sizing in a major way, don’t expect them to be around a year from now.

      • 2023 on 22/11/2020 - 08:08

        Lack of customers surely has less and less people to actually need collection services for.

        Doing away from lock in contracts has also made it easy for people to walk away from the unnecessary expense rather than rack up big bills.

    Please use a different payment method and email id if you have already used the free month trial. I was stung with a full monthly bill when I tried to get another month trial by just using a different email.

    I had it 10 years ago for business channel & AFL.

    I get my Aussie Rules with the AFL app for free now.

    They even cut their business channel, it cost 100x less than sky news. They have after dark hosts which are hardcore Trump fans & think the coronavirus is fake & that lives should be sacrificed for the economy. Crazy stuff.

        Seeing as how their lord and saviour Trump flip flops around covid constantly, they most certainly can say both.
