Discussion
I’ve got phone etc etc with Telstra.
Part of that is a Telstra TV box which I use to access all the steaming services, including Binge.
Telstra appear to be winding down Telstra TV and replacing it with a Fetch TV box. Fetch doesn’t cover Binge (owned by Foxtel) or Foxtel.
Telstra are part owners of Foxtel!! And they offer discounted subs to Binge / Foxtel if you are a Telstra customer!
Obviously a rhetorical question, but what sort of moronic organisation decides to phase out their TV streaming service and move to one that doesn’t currently support the steaming services they own?!!
To make it worse their website has a load of contradicting info about whether or not the existing box will keep working, and for how long, but their switch to Fetch for free offer only goes to the end of the month (helpfully hidden away unless you go looking for it).
Oh…and to get the free offer you need to give them your ID details and credit card details despite being signed in to your account from their app on a phone connected to their network!
Bloody Telstra!
Rant over. Probably too parochial for the “Things that Annoy you” thread
