𝕵.𝕭𝖆𝖐𝖊𝖗 (@PremiumPies) reported@Michael94858047 Foxtel laughing at anyone willing to pay that for their service
-
John (@jt_melb) reportedHow the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback
-
Sam (@yma6rocks) reportedOk so there’s a @foxtel outage! And thy can’t even tell their customers about it!! Getting an error message on my screen thinking my account has been suspended or some **** Can’t even watch the footy…
-
Benny™ (@bennyspursau) reported@onepercentas @Jonesracing82 Constantly jittering. Ridiculous to suggest Internet is the issue. Have no issue streaming live EPL or even live sport on Foxtel app. Yet Kayo constantly jitters and stutters.
-
Keith Ian Anderson (@KeithAn15068821) reported@1116sen @SENBreakfast The issue was that foxtel lost the sync to the clock. The clock was still running on Channel 7 and so was still running for the timekeepers
-
Lin♪P!nkOz♬💙 #THREADS aussielin (@LinAussie) reported@ump21 @MWL152 Get foxtel. No issues whatsoever plus heaps of other channels.
-
Jackamo (@JackamoTellEm) reported@Michael94858047 wait people still have foxtel in 2026? I thought that **** died out years ago
-
SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported@gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.
-
Toby Cook (@MrTobyCook) reported@BingIsBackBaby @Foxtel The @FOXTEL_Help team are absolute jerks these days. The chat service is even worse than the phone service. They just lie and refuse to help.
-
Luannsmugshot (@luannsmugshoot) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel Lowkey season 5 was so bad the super strict Australian lockdowns killed the show
-
RationalMan74 (@RationalMan74) reported@onepercentas Why does it even exist? Why do Foxtel not simply offer a sports only package? Why does it seem to run off different tech to the Foxtel app which has zero issues?
-
JasonF. (@AnInterObserver) reported@kayosports_help moved from Foxtel to Kayo. Mistake. Rarely had an issue with Foxtel, more dropouts and circle of death with Kayo in one month vs 25 years with Foxtel. Running NBN500. If there’s some simple fix let me know. Otherwise, I’ll bank a refund and return to Foxtel.

Paul (@ardmorelad) reportedNo problems with Foxtel broadcast.
-
Lebowski (@spagettihous) reported@Michael94858047 Time to cancel @Foxtel
-
The Based Aussie (@BASEDAUSSIEM82) reported@AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot
-
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
-
sssopᴉɐɹq (@Braidoss53) reported@Croccers @nikkivioletgwen @F1Media No, my problem is how expensive it is to access the one single sport I actually care about watching live, when there are better streaming options in other countries, my problem is Kayo/Foxtel having the exclusive rights then continually ripping us off with overpriced streaming
-
Daryn Chisholm (@darynchisholm) reported@FOXTEL_Help foxtel support is crap but you can still see crap, foxtel support does not exist. It is 9am qld time and no support. Calls hang up and no agents online in the super fast agent support
-
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.
-
FBDonkey (@FBDonkey) reported@onepercentas When travelling in my caravan all my streaming platforms would work with a low internet signal except for one... KAYO. It's like they deliberately make it bad so that people sign up for Foxtel
-
anankerv (@anankerv) reported@Foxtel you would reward my loyalty by cutting my subscription by half and rewarding me by cutting the price for me What a joke #cancel
-
Healdyyy (@healdyyy) reported@davisjarrafooty Kayo is dog ****! Foxtel by the length of the Flemington straight
-
Jye (@jtristian95) reportedAgain can someone at @FOXFOOTY @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help fix the audio sync issues on fox footy right now. #AFLNorthBlues
-
EarlswoodXRPMAXI (@eviethedog65) reported@Michael94858047 Holy ****. I canned Foxtel and just subscribed to what i want. Far cheaper. I have Kayo for the AFL.
-
***** (@guidohatzis) reportedQuestion for Kayo people. Why don't you have Foxtel? I've never seen a 'How good is Kayo' post. From what I'm seeing, having Kayo is like going to a brothel for a cuddle. Waste of time and money. #AFL

jason quealey (@jq1970) reported@nrlphysio @kayosports This is why I kept the @Foxtel box and avoid the poor service you get with streaming
