    THANK YOU @Foxtel @FOXSportsAUS and @kayosports for being too greedy and granting us with Stan Sport. Ifn t wasn't for U 3 then we'd be stuck with an overpriced sub-par service with ads. Stan Sport>Fox Sports.

  • therekoning31 Darren (@therekoning31) reported

    @Foxtel have a PE3016 playback error for nearly 2 months now since first reported in June! Can’t access any channels! July 21 was the last I heard from foxtel ‘the engineers are working on it’. Poor form Foxtel!!

  • Plasticshinpads MUFC Fan Club (@Plasticshinpads) reported

    @JonDT96 @MelbourneBlokee this is just a dumb tweet to watch AL and EPL it used to cost over 80 bucks a month in HD on Foxtel - it has never been cheaper to watch football in Australia.

  • BarryKi02759103 Bazza (@BarryKi02759103) reported

    @SkyNewsAust Thank gawd I cancelled Foxtel !! accidentally switched on to her ! and thought WTF !!!!

  • AgrippinaMaior Nicole Davis (@AgrippinaMaior) reported

    @terencesleeth @FOXTEL_Help They never actually respond either.

  • AgrippinaMaior Nicole Davis (@AgrippinaMaior) reported

    @terencesleeth @FOXTEL_Help My question also. Can't login even though I did a day ago. Changed my password. Still can't login. Telling me my password is wrong ... sheesh.

  • Jordz_1_1_1 Jordan (@Jordz_1_1_1) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help pretty disappointed that I just spent over an hour on live chat and my problem still isn’t solved

  • Kerry_Barclay The Fisher King 😷💉💉💉💉 (@Kerry_Barclay) reported

    for a quote. The bloke said $250. So i said i'd think about it. But nah, stuff that. Not when i pay #Foxtel $68 a month, hardly use it, & they want me to pay to fix THEIR satellite dish, when i ahven't done a thing to it. It seems it a bit ridiculous. It's their satellite dish,

  • CherylCritchley Cheryl Critchley (@CherylCritchley) reported

    @OldmatePunter The Foxtel signal dropped out. Boo! Just got it back...

  • Kerry_Barclay The Fisher King 😷💉💉💉💉 (@Kerry_Barclay) reported

    about #Foxtel. I'll probably cancel Foxtel completely.

  • JBhifidelity73 John Richard (@JBhifidelity73) reported

    @leighchookoo @FOXFOOTY I think the goose was an ex-player co-commentator who piped in with that stupid comment, not Huddo .. voice sounded familiar but I haven't got Foxtel, not sure who it was.

  • cjcaramello Cj Caramello (@cjcaramello) reported

    hey @Foxtel is there problems with #foxtel login? it won't let me login. keeps saying they don't match.

  • SpartaRulz Jacob Whalan (@SpartaRulz) reported

    @Mikpwn @Nibellion I know that Foxtel isn't the greatest provider but it still has some great content not available on any other Australian streaming service. Binge is the only exception but that's because it's owned by Streamotion, a subsidiary of Foxtel.

  • RoeJoga09488483 RoeJogan (@RoeJoga09488483) reported

    @Telstra nbn keeps connecting and then 20 minutes later disconnecting, has been happening for over an hour now. @Foxtel has now gone down too, what is going on

  • Scottjrenshaw Scott Renshaw (@Scottjrenshaw) reported

    @Nibellion @tvtonightau Foxtel/Binge might have trouble retaining some content come 2024 based on timeline map

  • TheRealTOUXFC Luke neill (@TheRealTOUXFC) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXFOOTY @kayosports remove the score display of the other game played at the same time. Trying to watch it without spoilers, no need it’s horrible.

  • McbreenWes Wes McBreen (@McbreenWes) reported

    @Foxtel you are ******* ****. I went to watch the Melbourne vs Collingwood replay and the replay ended 4 minutes before the match ended. My membership is gone you fuckwits.

  • mcmungawar mcmungawar (3,3) (🌵,🌵) (@mcmungawar) reported

    Worst part about doing your seeds on footy? Foxtel minis on for the next week reminding you of your near aneurysm

  • sohappyred HappyRed (@sohappyred) reported

    @Foxtel @AFL Can we please get a "mute" Brian Taylor button on our remotes? Thank you. (He is the worst commentator ever in history of AFL) 🤞🤞#AFL #AFLDeesPies

  • Kerry_Barclay The Fisher King 😷💉💉💉💉 (@Kerry_Barclay) reported

    theuir equipment that has stuffed up. They should fix it thems elves or pay for someone else to (like #Foxtel wanted me to do). So i currently just have free-to-air tv & am considering other options. I probably will just stick with free-to-air tv bcos i hardly watch tv nowadays

  • ali_saenz Ali Saenz 🏆🏆🏆🏆🥄 (@ali_saenz) reported

    @Foxtel @itsrenatak Is it still under maintenance, cause it’s not working now

  • AngelaBellicose Angela Bell (@AngelaBellicose) reported

    Is the @Foxtel app broken or is it just me?

  • McbreenWes Wes McBreen (@McbreenWes) reported

    @1percenta @Foxtel Anyway, just being a picky ****. Go Pies

  • MissLizzieZiZi 𝔼𝕝𝕚𝕫𝕒𝕓𝕖𝕥𝕙 (@MissLizzieZiZi) reported

    Upgrading to iQ5 is technically a downgrade, can only record one programme at a time!! Wtf @Foxtel #foxtel

  • bcurrall80 Blake Currall (@bcurrall80) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Having to watch the Eagles game through the Foxtel app on my iPad because the Foxtel box, as usual, has a **** connection. How can they’re equipment be consistently so terrible?

  • AgedAndrew 🇺🇦- Quadruple vax’d and wearing a mask… (@AgedAndrew) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help this version of MYFOXTEL app is rubbish. I try and use it and no longer get the TV Guide. It used to work under the old version of the app. Hint: don’t upgrade unless tested fully. This has been rubbish since downloading a couple of months ago. Pls fix.

  • sammya2375 Sam Alexander (@sammya2375) reported

    I'm watching this on Foxtel 4k and the sounds terrible. Either there is some weird reverb on the commentator's voices or someones turning the crowd noises up and down... it sounds like playing a record backwards. #gotiges #AFLPowerTigers

  • Mr_Wolf_15G Mr Wolf ᚢᛚᚠᛦ (@Mr_Wolf_15G) reported

    @picotrek I'm never signing up to Foxtel. Seems obvious that I should be able to watch this on a media app on my playstation, maybe paywalled behind PSPlus
