Their long sleeved t shirts cost 1/4 as much as Bonds and last 4 times longer!

So if I cancelled but kind of dragged my feet returning the box could I still watch all the shows I recorded over time? That's the only thing keeping me from canning it at the moment.

Just right. as it always is
It's actually not bad having the movies on there. I mean you can grab them all from elsewhere but having random ones to flick through you see stuff that interests you but would have never thought about or have forgotten. Still obviously not worth paying for though.

Aspect ratio usually ****ed up.
Just for people with the sports package, because there is no LIVE sports to watch.

We should be getting a 50% discount for what we are getting at the moment,
Movie channels have gone down hill in the last couple of years.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to simply drop sports and put the movies on? Or have they discounted the sports package as well?

Only keep Foxtel basically for the live sport and at the moment we are getting nothing so we should be getting a discount.
Close to ditching as not really watching anything on Foxtel at the moment,
mainly watching netflix

Have noticed just in the time since they made it free that there's a heap of repeats too.
Same with Comedy Channel. Same with Sci-Fi. None of it is worth the money.

Does Foxtel have a future?
Last week, Foxtel retrenched 200 employees, with another 140 stood down until the end of June. The retrenchments were presented to staff and shareholders as a response to the coronavirus pandemic, which has cancelled live sporting events across the world, including Foxtel’s prized 2020 AFL and...

Double trouble for battered Foxtel
This site has gone to great lengths explaining how Foxtel’s subscriber base is in a “death spiral”, which has been accelerated by the coronavirus lock down. Even before this lock down came into effect mid last month, Foxtel’s subscriber base was declining while its streaming rivals recorded...

Laziest Poster on Figbooty
Not sure where else to post this, but anyone watch War of the Worlds on Foxtel? The British version that just came out. 2 quite long episodes, but was waiting for more to drop, so checked when it may be and apparently that was the end. Was kind of waiting to see where it was going and what was going to happen, but nope, all done.
They texted us saying that my usual deal is about to expire (basic, sport, HD $40) is about to expire and that I can have sport for free for another 3 months for free if I answer 'yes' lmao.
Think I'll ring the cancel line tomorrow and see what happens. Even with all the free stuff at the moment it's barely worth it with no sport.

They really are in a death spiral. What does this do for up and coming Australian talent? CMC was really good and generous with pushing Aussie country music - is anyone going to do that now? I mean, a lot of it was utter shit but the sheer volume of videos that were produced suggests there is going to be a major flow on to the video direction/production/editing sector as well.
if you still have a foxtel subscription at this point you are an idiot.
please give me your money i will spend it much more wisely.
