a warning for those who have or are about to install digital foxtel and who dont have a home phone line.

here's my story. 5 months ago i installed digital foxtel and got the platinum package ($97.50 a month ). you get two free box office ( read current ) movies free a month in addition to every channel possible ( except porn Posted Image ) i told them up front i didn't have a home phone or landline because i have a work mobile who pay for everything. they install it. i watch my two free movies and occasionally order main event items.

suddenly on the 5 month i cant redeem my free movies nor order anything else.....i ring up foxtel and they say, oh, you dont have a landline, we need the set top box to dial back to tell us what you ordered....but i told you. sorry, bad luck, no credits or anything....$97.50 a month? who the ###### are they kidding? I am going to cancel the thing and let them continue to lose money on digital.....

Foxtel and Telstra have a bad habit of not following the principle of full disclosure in an effort to make more sales.

The Fuc*ers‼ ─ i've had issues with Telstra wireless.

Hi Alissa, Iblis and Abin . . .

One of my grandsons bought a new I phone (I think that's what they are called).
Every time he walks into the house (his family) the wireless modem dies!
If he turns off the I phone the modem revives!

He is with Dodo, not Telstra.

Probably a WiFi issue and nothing to do with the ISP, Peter.

Suggest that your grandson creates a sync between the wireless modem and the ¡Phone and if there is already a sync, remove it.

Hello Iblis.

As far as I know no one has done any syncing to the modem.
But I will mention it anyway!
Thanks.
