  @AmeliaBee7 @xskinn It used to fill me with anxiety and annoyance when I had the displeasure of having sky free on Foxtel. And seeing this idiot sitting there like a pompous buffoon. Thank Christ they removed free Sky News.

  @tayser82 I believe Foxtel used as much power as a town the size of Lithgow when it first setup in Macquarie Park but, no, that wasn’t a problem

  @leighjones0212 @Foxtel If you’re a CBA customer you can get Binge and Kayo for $17 a month. Ditch Foxtel.

  @gilby_gillard @kayosports Foxtel signed a huge deal. I think kayo are now obliged to send punters their way now. I was with Kayo for 6 years and they just cancelled my subscription due regional bullshit. You can’t talk to anyone … they’re rubbish. Never again.

  @chadtownsend10 The trouble is Chad, the app is terrible and continually breaks down, if it didn’t do that there would be a lot less complaints. The price has gone up $20 on the last few years and the service hasn’t improved. I pay $107 a month to have Foxtel I can afford it, many cannot.

  Does the commentary team on #foxtel give any coverage at all of #piastri in F1? He’s leading Q1 and Q2 yet they’ve not spoken about him or even shown his laps once. Wtf

  @Hugh_96 @balumbah I agree, as there's no accountability in RA. You can fail and fail again, and no transparency. My view is that 3 years after the RWC, when the money runs out, Foxtel will buy rugby for peanuts. Only then will it get fixed.

  @craigspeculator @Foxtel Gross.. when we had to cancel our dog food subscription they asked why (can cancel online) we told them he died. They sent us a candle with his name on it. Honestly such a small gesture.. trying to keep a subscription in this situation feels a bit gross.

  Why are @Foxtel IQ5 such pieces of **** . Seriously they are the ******* worst and all Foxtel does is replace them knowing they are defective. Jesus Christ these corporates piss me off

  @IWonderWhyNow @Foxtel Like ffs, Carlton made it a 3pt game & the 1st thing kingy mentions is that Daicos has been on the bench for a few minutes....... *******.

  @craigspeculator @Foxtel Telstra aren’t much better. My mum had a mobile plan with them and hardly used. Something they could see from the monthly bills. In care because of dementia they insisted she would have to ring to cancel the plan.

  @OMGTheMess Hahaha. Yeah televise women’s sport. That was proven to be bs. That’s what they ‘claimed’ it was for. And estimates proved not a single additional women’s sport was televised. Also Foxtel never even asked for the money or reported what they did with it. $40m given away.

  @Aliceh_1936 It's so conflicting as I pay for a Foxtel subscription and enjoy the NRL via Fox way more than 9, but their journalism department is a bag of *****. I've blocked them on here so I don't see their rubbish clickbait. And on Galvin, **** every journo who **** on him. Wankers.

  @Bingbongbo10475 @telegraph_sport The TV ratings have been neck and neck for FTA/VOZ audience figures. Both AFL and NRL hovering around 500-650k. AFL has beaten the NRL multiple times this season including last night which was AFL 655k and NRL 544k. It's always going to change though depending on the games that are on and general interest in those teams. In the stands, its 37,623 AFL and 21, 676 NRL for average attendance. That's 73% higher. For last season in particular, AFL had a Seven FTA average of 630k, and roughly 300k for Kayo/Foxtel NRL had a Nine FTA average of 570k and around 430k for Kayo/Foxtel. So no, it's not night and day between "every domestic sport combined" its barely midday and 1pm between NRL and AFL, and night and day between AFL and NRL when it comes to people actually getting off their arses and going to support their team. I don't watch either sport, but the facts are there in black and white.

  @RhondaGarad @SBSOnDemand I was trying to remember when SBS started, was it commercial free like the ABC & then converted to a commercial network or was it always commercial? The fraudulent Foxtel told ppl pay this subscription fee for no adverts, that soon changed

  @AFLNow I cancelled mine a few years back and switched to Foxtel instead... the Kayo service was terrible, always dropping out, but Foxtel is way better.

  Reported in The Courier-Mail today: The NRL’s plan to save Super League could be on the brink of collapse in what would be a devastating blow for the English game. The ARLC has been investigating a Super League rescue package for the past year, but it’s understood UK broadcaster Sky Sports is reluctant to come to the party with a palatable deal to satisfy the NRL’s investment strategy. There are suggestions DAZN, which now owns Foxtel, could support a Super League rescue package after former NRL CEO Andrew Abdo travelled to the UK in April for Super League buyout talks.  The Super League could be in trouble. Picture: Alex Livesey/Getty Images But V’landys says the Super League deal could hit a deadend. That would be a potentially fatal blow for an ailing English game which is drowning in debt. Super League giants St Helens lost $6.5m alone last year. “Look, we’re trying to make the figures work at the moment, but unless the figures work, we won’t do it,” he said. “We’re having trouble making the figures work, that’s the truth of it. “I don’t know what will happen. I find it very tough (to proceed with a purchase). “We need to talk further with Super League. We haven’t put a proposal into them yet. “We understand the importance of the international game, so we’re not giving up.”

  @hillfolkAU Yep let’s sack the guy who was COO for a private uk bus/train operator and worked as a higher up in London rail for someone who’s experience was customer operations at Foxtel … Maybe she’s good but wish they indexed more on transport expertise 🤷🏻
