[AusNOG] Choice says using Netflix is NOT Piracy

[John Lindsay]

The Foxtel web site says:

When are these changes happening? -  November 3, 2014.

and:

Do I need to do anything? -  You won’t need to do a thing.

but then later:

Is Foxtel changing its price for new customers only? -  As we’ve mentioned we’re launching new pricing and packaging options on Nov 3. Our new packs are available from Nov 3 on a 12 month fixed term contract to new and existing customers.

So basically as misdirecting truth hiding that failure to act will cost you the subscriber.

Make a diary note or just call and cancel now and see what the offer is to stay :-)

Cheers,

John Lindsay
