    @Tuxy81 Same as foxtel. Just tried to cancel

    Gary Stainton (@staintong) reported

    @matt__nicholls Perhaps DAZN's strategy is just to run out the existing contracts while DAZN pockets the subscription and advertising revenue, then eventually shut Kayo/ Foxtel down.

    @JFalleiro Jeepers. I try to cancel my foxtel and I have the retention department sending me emails, and them giving me deals I don’t want over the phone! I can’t escape them! I feel sad hearing all this. I genuinely do.

    @Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.

    @adriansal80 @SC___Scout You got a foxtel box or the streaming version of foxtel? Cause I can’t handle Kayo. The streams are awful. It’s delayed and the app is beyond pathetic.

    Don't pay for any applications or subscriptions. Cancel netflix foxtel etc all streaming platforms we own the phone companies. Delete bank account & open a new one. Information will be readily available at the touch of a finger. You can i read any encyclopaedia or text book Free.

    @centralNRL He used to talk down the value of the nrl tv deal every time it was up for renewal when he had a job at Foxtel. Even they got sick of him

    @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.

    @MrBlairHughes @LeagueUnlimited @kayosports That wasn't a Kayo issue that one, it happened on my Foxtel as well.

    Hey @Foxtel the next time I hear your AFL football commentators describe something as "elite", I will 1) Vomit and 2) Cancel my subscription. Enough of this repetitive garbage, I beg you. @AFL

    I haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job **** you @Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?

    Why the bloody hell has foxtel still got the stupid seinfeld channel ? Why not a friends channel ? Or a married with children channel ? A frasier/cheers channel ? So many better options than that absolutely stupid show having its own channel

    @matt__nicholls Yeah sucks. Think foxtel/kayo should focus on getting more sport leave the movies/tv to the streaming sites. Cos fta cant to do sports well. And having sport split over multiple site sucks. Would be so bad if all tennis was on one all motorsport on another but when sports are over 2 or 3 it sucks.

    @Tuxy81 @Raiders_24Sep89 You’re both kinda correct - if no FTA network bids, then the rights can go exclusively to Pay TV - but in this instance we know a FTA network has made a bid, so Foxtel/DAZN are compelled to find a FTA partner

    @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.

    @1116sen Because Ch7 "Allegedly" have the footy rights but have 4 less games than Foxtel. No footy on Sat's poor elderly that AFL don't get any Sat footy anymore G but what would you blokes care. Broadcaters fault. And camera work is pathetic. Game is in chaos. Poor Laura took the hit.

    @kayosports @Foxtel tv director has to lose his job after this performance. This might be the worst major sporting event coverage I’ve ever seen #AFLDonsPies

    @lorahmoe Foxtel was originally sold to us as ad free tv more than 20 years ago. A few yrs later we’d sit down to watch something, Didn’t matter what channel. You’d watch a few minutes then there were 10 mins of ads..we were paying $100 a Month for that!?? Absolute rubbish.
