***** (@guidohatzis) reported@RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.
-
Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
-
Bryan S (@BryanS81) reported@Foxtel fix ur sound on the footy!!!
-
Michael Wilde (@michael_wilde1) reported@myco54896926 @Blazebit9 @RealEmirHan Unfortunately Foxtel (Murdoch's) had the exclusive rights in my country at the time and it looked **** and you couldn't even buy it from someone like Apple until a year later and it was only in HD. I had to buy the last season on an Ultra HD Bluray. Then i could appreciated it
-
Haydan James (@Haydan_James) reported@sashaneedssleep Same on regular foxtel. Might be a SkyF1 issue.
-
El Gordo Ciclista (@elgordociclista) reported@inthebarberry @CattardSlim It’s owned by Fox, so why is anyone to expect? Ironically, Foxtel (basically the country’s biggest cable network and owned by Murdoch) has Sky News and CNN on consecutive channels. Go figure.

Greg1956 (@Greg19562) reported@KatyKray73 I pay for foxtel but their news is on there. I want it ****** off and a discount thanks. In other words **** off you dog!
-
Jack_Napier (@JackNapier84) reported@deank88 2000 era WCW is so bad its still good but man do i miss starting from BATB 96 and watching all the nitros and PPV up until starcade 99 like when i had wwe network or when foxtel had the rights to the library
-
Eddie (@EddieH1976) reported@charliepick @kayosports Foxtel has 4K not working and same issue with no mic
-
Trent Steel (@TAStanton2323) reported@lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.
-
John Rheinberger (@RheinbergerJohn) reported@gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)
-
Dariyen Jones (@DetroitLemons99) reported@FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it
-
Warthog (@edwarner57) reported@DanielGarb So not the week to cancel my Foxtel account
-
Paul Christie (@007paulchristie) reported@Foxtel your so called free HBO MAX app is the worst, adverts through every program, glitching constantly.abd we have the pleasure of paying extra to get the decent version. What a con job on all Foxtel customers who had these shows previously as part of their subscription.
-
NotoriousCYP (@NotoriousCYP) reportedSo what channel am I supposed to watch New Zealand vs South Africa on? Wtf am I paying for? @FoxCricket @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help #cricketlikeneverbefore
-
John the Baptist (@JohntheBapt1ser) reported@AlboMP Please make Foxtel number one target! They make it very difficult to cancel and make you go through a lengthy phone call. No online or postal option to cancel.
-
ash 🦕 (@lovronolastname) reported@tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it 😭

Mister Quimper 🇾🇪🇮🇷🇳🇬🇻🇪🇸🇴🇸🇾🇮🇶 (@SongOfSickness) reported@tresantes Not to mention it wasn't even 1080p and had some kind of anti-piracy black strip running up one side. It led to a great article in one of the papers: "Australia doesn't have a piracy problem. Australia has a Foxtel problem".
-
Andrew (@amea05) reported@Foxtel wtf is going on... Ads in the middle of the Hawks GCS game and now no vision?
-
Miles (@Michael1953_202) reported@Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .
-
Brett Cox (@b_dog_78) reported@NicNegrepontis Foxtel is borderline unwatchable. Signal dropping in and out. There is no rain and not a breath of wind outside, so the “poor weather” excuse is not valid. Just a poor service all round.
-
Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported@matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?
-
Camorae5196 (@camorae5196) reported@realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho
-
JAMpresident (@JAMpresident) reported@HostShinyoku @LesniakAndrew42 @kazakura_22 Game of Thrones is a great example. When it was on air, Australia was a massive pirate of the show. People were downloading torrents. Why? Because the only way to watch was with a ******* Foxtel subscription (cable TV contract). Everyone said **** that.
-
David Horrocks (@DavidHorrocks1) reported@Foxtel I sent an email to Foxtel and tried to make a follow up phone call. But the live chat cut out. My wife passed away on Friday and I have no interest in television so I want to cancel my account.
-
Eilegend (@lipsarinna) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel It was terrible I think we should do a petition for Binge to pick it back up
-
MaxibonHR_YT (@Maxibonhr_YT) reported@tresantes I had Foxtel growing up (it was pretty crap ngl), and even we didn’t get it because the channel package with HBO was insanely expensive
-
Uncanny Ryan (@RyanSimmonds23) reported@7AFL Whats up with the signal? Its stuttering but all fine on foxtel
-
Craig davos (@davos_craig) reportedWhats everyones issue with kayo ? My foxtel doesn't miss a beat 👍#AFLpowerdons
