How hard is it to cancel Foxtel Now?
Foxtel Now scores 67/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the AU — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), in-app.
Foxtel Now is a no-lock-in streaming subscription that can be cancelled online at any time via the account settings on a web browser (desktop only — not via the TV or mobile app). Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing month, with no pro-rata refund for unused days. There are no early-termination fees or required notice periods. Subscribers billed through Telstra must cancel via the My Telstra portal; once cancelled through Telstra, the subscription cannot be re-added through Telstra and must be re-subscribed directly with Foxtel.
How to cancel Foxtel Now
- Channels: online (self-serve), in-app

- Account/data deletion: Cancelling a Foxtel Now subscription deactivates the service but does not automatically delete the account or personal data. No self-serve data deletion tool is publicly documented. Data subject requests under Australian Privacy Act would need to be directed to Foxtel via their privacy contact.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
