Currently I have Foxtel IQ Standard Box Platinum channels.
Cost me $120 a month ($10 of it is IQ)
So I got a new plasma and got a letter today saying i can upgrade my box to HD IQ2 for a one off $100.
BUT then if i want the HD channels I have to pay an additional $10 a week??
Doesn't make sense... if i upgrade the box why should i pay the extra 10 a month??
I've already got all the channels, is 10 a month really worth seeing the same channels in HD?
Then i asked what happens to my old box and Foxtel said they would probably throw it out.
So i said can i keep my old box and just put it in my bedroom?
He said it would cost me $25 extra a month (this whole multi-room thing)
I said i'd already wired it myself why can't i just keep it???
It seems these guys are just printing money!!
Once i got the box and cable points it doesn't cost them a cent but they charge you for every little bit.
Rant over...
