Interesting that it is not, as i expected the WWE network linear feed with live events (raw & smackdown) inserted but almost a completely different schedule (with the exception of raw talk)

I had the WWE channel active about 2am with a title card with music. It was scheduled to start programs at 6am unsure if it did because I choose sleep

UPDATE: I contacted Foxtel and their diagnosis was that my iQ3 cable box was faulty (they’re closing Foxtel via cable by June 30) and their solution was to upgrade me to an iQ5 box (which they’d have to do anyway so that I could continue receiving Foxtel via internet or satellite).

The iq5 arrived today, I set it up and guess what, NITV isn’t in the EPG!!!

How can It not be!?! isn’t NITV an SBS channel? So it should be picked it via the Arial.

Is it being confused by the addition of the WWE channel, which has taken up the 144 slot NITV used to be?

NITV is supposedly now on channel 172 according to Foxtel’s web guide [next to the other SBS multis], but that’s not saying that’s flowing through to the EPG their boxes are using. (SBS’ own site for NITV hasn’t updated either.) I think one of my parents might’ve said the same thing about the EPG on his Foxtel Now box, that it had disappeared.

NITV was on 172 on my old iQ3, but there was an eror message on the screen.

Today I got an e-mail to say that as a Foxtel from Telstra subscriber, I now have free access to Flash News. Did others get this?

Doing a search on the internet, I see that Foxtel direct customers got this in March. Was it permanent or just a trial?

That’s why we’re huge supporters of No Limit – who are first-class promoters dedicated to nurturing future champions to compete on the world stage.

“No Limit is an amazing First Nations business founded by the Rose brothers – George, Matt and Trent. We’re committed to continuing to strengthen our contribution to reconciliation as one of the largest sports broadcasters in Australia, and we will continue to look for opportunities like this to use our reach to amplify a diversity of voices and talent across our platforms. This partnership will not only deliver the best boxing content to our subscribers – it will also support No Limit to continue their important work in identifying and developing Australia’s boxing stars of tomorrow.”

It’s clear Foxtel Group are the undisputed pay-per-view leaders and with their enormous and fast-growing audience they are bringing more fans into the sport than ever before.

“This partnership makes us an unstoppable force and brings the best of the best together. Boxing is back in the spotlight where it belongs and 2023 promises to be bigger than ever. Not only do we have Tim Tszyu fighting for the undisputed world-title but Liam Wilson is expected to secure a world title fight in February. We also have an exciting triple-header in March featuring Nikita Tszyu, Harry Garside and Paulo Aokuso.”

I’m not sure why these music channels always display a MA15+ rating. Because basically, all the content they show would not make the rating.
