You can just sign up on your computer and take a look anyway, there will be loads of offers around

The other thing is if you have a large phone you can download the app and watch while you are waiting .....sport in my case

Actually I guess one of them plugs into the foxtel box, not the tv. So maybe I could swap it to the tv and see if that works. Although I guess Telstra will want them back if I cancel my current foxtel subscription.

 

I might sign up for a free trial next week and see if I can figure it out.

It can't hurt to have a play with the free trial.  And as tiny toes said, Playstation is a good option if you have any of those online.  My SIL uses his Playstation because their old TV didn't have a way to connent to the net but connects to the playstation and the playstation connects to the net via wifi.

It will certainly keep them occupied for a while, sorting out and testing streaming services  😄

"but i think they are paid to be pleasant but unhelpful!"  .....  Can't argue with that ....

With Stan, Presto, and now NetFlix entering the market it sure offers the consumer a bit more than Foxtel does. I think Foxtel will have to get its bean counters to crunch the numbers and come up with some cheaper packages. It will be interesting to see what Foxie does.

iinet - offers quota free Netflix streaming. Others may follow.
