Pretty sad selection of programming,.... but better than nothing.

I certainly wouldn't pay $$ for them after the promo period is over.

Which channels are free right now and will have to be paid for later?

Fox Crime is OK

hi Bafana,

The channels that were switched on as free/promo (as far as I can tell) were the following:

31: TVRI
36: Boomerang
65: Turner Classic Movies
69: Asian Food Channel
70: Discovery Home and Health
71: Discovery Science
72: Discovery Real Time
73: A1
74: Eurosportnews
75: Fox News Channel
76: BBC entertainment
77: National Geographic Wild
80: E! Entertainment
81: Soundtrack Channel
82: MGM
83: Zone Reality
84: Animax
85: Channel V international
86: Foxcrime
92: Sky News

Not sure which of the above are meant to be a part of the package, and which have been accidently turned on (which seems to happen quite a bit in my area.. getting channels I never ordered or get billed for)

I also seem to have the following switched on (accidently?)
96: Australia Network
100: KBS World

The promo channels are only visible during the promo period between 13th october to 26th october & if you subscribe now, you get 50% off over next 3 months.

Nice - Will just have to wait and see which ones are included in which package.

BTW my box has just decided to die - Nice one.

Actually, these are specifically the ones under that package grouping:

Anything else I've mentioned that doesn't appear on that list must be one of those phantom channels I didn't ask for, nor am intending to pay for once starhub rectify it.

Any plans on getting one of those recordable set-top boxes? Do let me know if you do and whether they're any good.
