Re: what's the best sky package
the sky plus is called Foxtel IQ
foxtel is pish here just like the council telly
best thing u can do is dont buy a telly and get oot more. i got foxtel and like a prick signed up for 2 years or somethin. i never watch it now, its crap !!!!!
but if u get IQ you can record even more crap at the same time

Thanks for that you dont realize how reassuring that is, a world without Lizzie Maguire, fairly god parents, sponge bob, would be pure TORTURE!
the only time I get any peace is when they are watching their programs.

"The Simpsons" is on free to air TV twice daily, well here in Vic at least. West Ham / div. one games are on Pay Per View sometimes. I watched the playoff final in a pub last year and I know one or two of the other forum members did too. As other posters have mentioned, FOXTEL and OPTUS or AUSTAR here in rural areas are the subscription TV providors.

Loads of Simpsons on Channel 10 free to air. IMO Foxtel is a bit overpriced. Plus with all the fantastic outdoor lifestyles we have who watches TV?

finally they changed it manually a couple of weeks ago but they are sending me bills for excess usage and I am refusing to pay them so they are threatening to take me to court Bless em. Kala

I'm with you guys on this one. Had a contract with them for a year when I first got to aus. O innocent naive old me. Cancelled it straight away as soon as I could and told them to take me off the mailing and "cold calling" advertising lists, lo and behold I've had numerous mailshots and two phone calls since telling me why I should go back to bigpond. bastards.
