FOXTEL on new and refurbished Xbox consoles

FOXTEL associates your FOXTEL on Xbox 360 account with your Xbox console’s serial number to create an Xbox ID automatically during setup. If you refurbish your console, purchase a new one, or update the FOXTEL software on your console, visit the FOXTEL website to reset the Xbox ID.

If you have problems changing or removing an Xbox 360 console from the FOXTEL account or if you have to do this multiple times in any month, contact FOXTEL Support by calling 131 999, or visit FOXTEL.com.
