FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
AlexanderV (@PedlarFan) reported@fa37376 Do you understand how much money Qatar and the UAE have? Saudi Arabia have a minority stake in DAZN who bought Foxtel which plays Sydney games on it. They can’t take it back, but they could have easily renewed the sponsorship, instead they turned down the money.
-
Richard (@RichardBlackgum) reported@hook_gc @FOXNRL It's Fox, try and cancel foxtel for an elderly relative. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.
-
Ray Gatt (@Gatty54) reported@Foxtel are there any issues with Foxtel atm? Can’t access. Keep getting the rotating circle
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported@simmoh666 @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel Everytime Kayo plays up I find Foxtel is no good too. I just presume they using the same platform to stream with. Paramount were crap for two year just with sports the rest was good. They obviously took notice and worked to improve their technology & fixed it! Or viewers dropped
-
yoelmonaro (@yoelmonaro) reportedAlso btw wtf was the ticking sound @Foxtel in the first 18 mins of the Panthers v Tigers coverage?
-
Biscuitman (@biscuitman007) reported@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.
-
Step and fetch (@FetchStep) reported@MichaelPascoe01 NRL before the kids. It’s directly related to Foxtel and Nine's broadcast rights with the NRL. Non gambling Advertising revenue is down so the only income these mobs will get for the footy is from Gambling. If labor bans Gambling ads the NRL won’t get same the money for the deal
-
John Money (Real name on ID) (@DrJMoneyPHD) reported@ItsPoletti foxtel chose 2 clubs that should have never have been picked before dumping the league & now one of them is statement fc
-
Scott Patten (@Mehyouthink) reported@footyindustryAU I reckon stays at kayo/foxtel. Look what happened to A-League and Rugby when they left. You never see them on pub tvs anymore. I mean the deal for that might not be worth it but for eyes on product?
-
Lloyd Duff (@Mike09127415) reported@YouTube @LolCowBasement @LolCowBasement Great Telstra flakes and Techy TV goes BYE BYE It makes me wish Richard would come out of my tv and do me in then at Foxtel "Well this sucks" "Yes Darling thats Aussie cable" then he does it again+ "WOW COOL I GOT WHACKED BY ELVIS I always wanted him" SHEESH
-
Mr_Ives (@Mr_Ives_) reported@BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.
-
daleo (@v4daleo) reported@MotoGP why do I actually give you money ? Your app coverage is **** and completely inconsistent. No functioning service . Cancelation request incoming. Guess Foxtel gets your money now.
-
Jalin Cedar (@JalinCedar) reported@FOXFOOTY It’s almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer can’t hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?
-
voldovor mias (@ViaMias11) reportedthere was that competition you sign up to foxtel and buy every pay per view wwe or something you can win a trainor and placement. Shayna bazzler and fat tony won. Seboyh tourian was there give it to sol ruca they were all fighting the stupid adrian drug squad police stephanie
-
Ben (@benno_76) reported@mcdonellaussie @DisneyPlus I get ESPN through Foxtel. Would never think to use Disney
-
emily (@embankss_) reportednever forget when my family had foxtel iq and my dad had every single episode of bar rescue recorded
-
Matt McDermott (@MattMcDermott74) reported@vanOnselenP I wasn't poking fun at you just using a factual example . If this game was on Foxtel / ABC its a non issue .
-
James Milton (@jformaldehydem) reported@mary_hail20316 @KirstiMiller30 So pirate it then. Binge and Foxtel are both Murdoch properties. **** Murdoch!
-
Fine Cotton (@mr_finecotton) reported@Foxtel u say u provide the best entertainment & sport.... the latest series of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premiered 19 May 2026 in the USA.... It's July & youre still not screening in Aust - why am I paying $100/mth for second rate service? @HISTORY @BrandonFugal
-
tsell (@TsellSellersfam) reported@BillWiIdin I was on the phone to a foxtel employee who put me on hold 3 times to go and check her son who had broken her leg. At least she was honest about it but yeah a 15min phone call ended up taking 45mins. Not productive at all.
-
Jason robert (@JasonR69737) reported@SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus Would the AFL be secretly hoping that Foxtel retain the broadcast rights to the NRL given that it's foreign ownership would have to consider the network's future if it lost the NRL?
-
Yeezalicious (@Yeezalicious69) reported@PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy
-
Nigeyboy (@Nigeyboyl7do) reported@codenrl **** I hope so . I hate channel 9 coverage. Foxtel is the greatest footy network. The people are decent down to earth and care about fans. Channel may have the greatest players ever but it’s a lame boring telecast.
-
Heidi van Delft (@heidipie2010) reported@PieNorthern @Foxtel The netball was on earlier… it was agonising watching it stop starting all game. I can’t even get social media on my phone because of the Wifi signal, it’s been getting worse every day at my house.
-
Fred 🇦🇺 (@Possum2412) reported@JonesPam7777 @OMGTheMess Kinda sorta bloody oath. I got my pay rise, I'll be paying $22k in tax plus all the other taxes and council rates and water rates and electricity. Then I pay for Foxtel and internet and mobile phone. And then have to eat. And I don't live in a city. Poor people who do.
-
Charlie Sheehan (@pauliewalnut) reported@FOXNRL I signed up for Foxtel in 1992 primarily for the rugby league coverage….i hope like hell they lose the broadcast rights ! Ennis, Voss, Duke, Alexander are ****** terrible commentators
-
Jackie Chan (@JackieChan87805) reported@Tksed_1 @FinancialReview Stan is struggling with B grade sports content Rugby EPL etc & thats the groups biggest income source.. They made a bold , HUGE play for the biggest sport in the land the NRL & that would have seriously harmed DAZN/foxtels viability so DAZN/foxtel said **** you !!
-
Voicey (@Dubhgall90) reported@pantherman45 Kayo is all ready $46 a month for a flawed service. How much does it go to if Foxtel has to pay more for the NRL?
-
@The_Tony 2023 🏆 (@the_tony) reportedFoxtel must be desperate to sell tickets for the Fredumb 250 UFC disgrace, poor old Gerard has to keep pushing the broadcast at every commercial break.
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.
