    @Mumdeep Just heard from Dad. Apart from foxtel being out (before storm) he is ok. Bro & SiL in Kim's st- up road & no power etc. How awful to see destruction & one person losing a life with a fallen tree. Hope you guys are ok

  • BelovedTrollop Ultimate Prole (@BelovedTrollop) reported

    @Leah_CBR, am at Queanbeyan Leagues and the Foxtel signal's just gone off, because satellite. Suggests it's about to storm and the stickiness should reduce.

  • 88rileythomas88 Riley C.Thomas (@88rileythomas88) reported

    @NRLCommenter @FOXNRL @Tim_Tszyu Starting him on PPV is stupid. Let him get a bit of exposure on normal Foxtel first non ?

  • 20thCenturyDan Daniel Best - Author (@20thCenturyDan) reported

    Cricket coverage rated. Foxtel: Pro - no ads. Con - Shane Warne endlessly dribbling shite. 7: Pro- no Warne. Con - commercials. ABC Radio: Pro - no Warne. Con - no visuals. Go with radio, television on, turned down. #Ashes

  • sandarousi - (@sandarousi) reported

    @Monsneaks It’ll never be a good service either. He’s just tryna funnel people back into foxtel with their new “subscriptions” never gonna happen.

  • BSFootball BSFootball (@BSFootball) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help No wonder people are leaving in droves. 45 mins later, no main event no solution and they can’t credit back the payment. Useless. I’ll be cancelling my three boxes tomorrow

  • MicheleS_Aus MicheleS (@MicheleS_Aus) reported

    @devalara44 @LesStonehouse I'd have to have #Foxtel to watch it where I am, however I will never give Murdoch a cent!

  • selcukgokmen10 Selution (@selcukgokmen10) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I need some help deactivating an account that I cannot access from my TV but that I am being charged for

  • Kate18660449 🌻Kate (@Kate18660449) reported

    @MLoParis Terrible TV & Foxtel lately... Even the remote hog struggles to find anything..🙄

  • rfgwyther Rhonda Gwyther💉💉 (@rfgwyther) reported

    @SamanthaMalin @Foxtel @BBCWorld TAPED! Damn auto correct again!

  • AjratYllek Yllek 🦋🦎🐝🐞 Kelly. Cause reasons 🤷 (@AjratYllek) reported

    Remember that foxtel ad? So bad. The Father, was outside & he got magicked inside to sit & watch TV. The children, were outside swimming & they got magicked inside to sit & watch TV. Seriously, the mother's being told they'd be better off inside, watching TV. I'm not sold on that

  • mattdelre26 matt (@mattdelre26) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help main event is not working why ???

  • gladstonepodge HAB (@gladstonepodge) reported

    @KKeneally Kristina-How much, as a voter, we need your voice to highlight this rotten Morrison led LNP gov who care nought for the poor. How un-Australian is this person along with Sen. Bragg who want to decimate the ABC but not Foxtel with their on-going verbal rubbish that supports LNP.

  • cheylrene cheyenne kemera (@cheylrene) reported

    @jorgehughes @IanJamesPoulter because I did my research so I knew what was going on. I had been following throughout the season and learning but never had the opportunity to watch a race because I didn’t have Foxtel or sky sports and got it just in time for Abu Dhabi

  • lucasdstewart Lucas Stewart (@lucasdstewart) reported

    @ellehardy I forget that they're piping them over to the UK. I thought it was just us poor suckers with Foxtel here that copped it

  • IamMikeyD_6 MD (@IamMikeyD_6) reported

    @red_eyed_goat You’ll need to move out of the 00’s to fix foxtel, as for NBN… I can’t make a sarcastic comment about that. 😔

  • red_eyed_goat Ash Rogers (@red_eyed_goat) reported

    @IamMikeyD_6 Oh the Foxtel sorted itself out once we got power back but now I don’t have NBN because the storm cooked it. Happens too often when we get a storm. Really annoying and there’s no fix other than getting a tech to come out. Being regional makes it even harder to get a tech visit

  • dianemcostello Whither democracy & humanity? (@dianemcostello) reported

    @EvoenergyACT Interesting. We are in that shadow in Curtin but no problem with the power. Just with Foxtel :-(

  • BSFootball BSFootball (@BSFootball) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Main event black screen after restart? Can't get help through the myfoxtelapp

  • BennyWatson04 Benny Watson (@BennyWatson04) reported

    Possibly an unpopular opinion but the @Foxtel cricket commentary is absolutely ****! @willowtv

  • catherinesilk22 catherine styles (taylor’s version) ☻ (@catherinesilk22) reported

    why does foxtel’s ‘stingray music’ look like something I would pirate Julia-Michaels-Issues-Official-Lyric-Video.mp3 from in 2018 😭😭

  • Gerschol Gerard Scholten (@Gerschol) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @ParamountPlusAU Please fix this and make it available as soon as the broadcast ends - Foxtel was able to do it on their Go app

  • TheAnfieldShout The Anfield Shout (@TheAnfieldShout) reported

    @debtsalebrokers dm me I’m having the same Foxtel issue

  • IamMikeyD_6 MD (@IamMikeyD_6) reported

    @red_eyed_goat I loved Foxtel when I had it, but I just “legally” download stuff now. How is it for sports now? I’ve got Kayo, Optus, Stan and Paramount for sports. It’s a real cluster ****…

  • Haydenfreedom Hayden (@Haydenfreedom) reported

    @footyindustryAU I imagine the normal time slot pre Aleague was rating higher than this. It was a great game and deserved more, but considering the promotion by 10 for the season this is bad. Worst than a foxtel audience but on free to air…

  • adam_snaidero Adam Snaidero (@adam_snaidero) reported

    @Haydenfreedom @footyindustryAU A-l had no real choice other than go to P+ cos foxtel didn't give a **** about them anymore. But the a-l will always primarily be on a subs service as there is no proper add space during a football game, even with better ratings. FTA spot is to keep comp in touch with mainstream

  • Vandelay2010 Art vandelay (@Vandelay2010) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help @tripledistiller Not working for me either, tried that
