Foxtel Go

New Foxtel subscribers can now enjoy great entertainment from signup with instant access to Foxtel Go. Don’t miss a minute of the action with the convenience of the popular app.

When you decide you want Foxtel, you call the friendly Foxtel people and they arrange for someone to come out and install the necessary stuff to get you connected as soon as possible. But what if you want to watch something in the meantime? That major Sporting event that’s exclusive to Foxtel, or the crucial next episode of The Walking Dead? The wait for an installer to come and work their magic is always a short one, but if you’ve just moved into a new home and don’t want to miss a thing, Foxtel’s fixing that with what they call “Pre-install Go”.

Now, as soon as you sign up for Foxtel or put in a request to move your Foxtel to a new address, you’ll have immediate and complete access to Foxtel Go, which lets you stream your Foxtel live and on-demand to all of the devices the Go service supports (see our Foxtel Go review for all the details).

Save Big with Foxtel’s Latest Deal

Bundle Sports, Drama, Entertainment with Multiscreen + Max for only $69/mth for 12 months, with iQ5 and set up costs waived, on a 12-month plan!

Cheapest Way to Get Foxtel

While Go has always been around for Foxtel subscribers on the move, now it’s available to you literally within seconds of signing up if you’re a new customer, and uninterrupted if you’re a current customer moving to a new home. And if you’re looking for a great deal on your Foxtel subscription, the best way to go is by subscribing through Foxtel from Telstra. They offer Foxtel plans starting for as low as $29 that you can start watching on the Foxtel Go App.

Stream On the Go

It may seem like a small change, but it’s actually a pretty big thing. For years your access to Foxtel depended on people coming around to your home to run cables, or for an iQ box to arrive so you could activate it, and while you waited you were missing out on your favourite shows and sports. Now, you can just fire up the Foxtel Go app on your iOS or Android device as soon as you’ve put your order in, and all the channel packages you’ve subscribed to will be there for you to stream Live TV and Sports that are broadcast across both Foxtel and Foxtel from Telstra.

You can grab the Foxtel Go apps for iPhone/iPad from the App Store and Google Play Store for Android devices, and Foxtel can be yours within minutes of you giving them a call.
