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

    @codenrl **** Phil gould he is a ****** . Cannot stand that we have too watch channel 9 coverage of the game , it’s so much better on Foxtel.

    @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.

    @andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.

    @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

    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?

    @lui_zacher The foxtel clock froze. The actual time clock was still counting down. So in the end it was explained last night of the coverage & no time was lost.

    Worst on ground today goes to @FOXFOOTY. Very piss poor effort especially given the recent price increase by @Foxtel #afldonspies

    @Foxtel I am trying to login to the app, it buffers, then does nothing and I have opened and closed it many times!

    @NorthBankNadim @SkySports I totally agree with this that’s why I’ve pulled the pin on my Sky subscription recently as they have stopped low with this type of hater …Sky sports news has definitely gone down hill I even used to watch it in the 90s in Australia on foxtel

    @thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.

  • DustinSpriggs4

    @puntingbattler @WSWanderingEels It’s near useless data imo. It doesn’t include Foxtel. It may be the same for Ch9 and the NRL but the Ch7 AFL commentary is garbage. No one that has the choice would be choosing that and the ads after goals

  • BjWittwer
    GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social (@BjWittwer) reported

    @xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires

  • v4daleo

    @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.

  • fantasyallsport
    TJ (@fantasyallsport) reported

    @Sharkydave44 Nine has the money from the Domain sale. Yes, Dazn would be incredibly stupid to lose the rights after forking out for Foxtel. Dazn has shown some form in trying to lowball sport bodies I don’t believe the numbers have been agreed on, I do think the NRL would prefer not to move

    @7AFL I hope so or I’ll be going down the pub to watch Foxtel.

  • odden56

    @JamColley I've had Kayo for a week after ditching my Foxtel IQ My Google Streamer is connected through Lan, 500/50 Kogan FTTP I have absolutely no issues with Kayo, quality is actually better than IQ4 4K

  • wolvesjr34
    wolvesjr34 (@wolvesjr34) reported

    I legit think anyone who pays for Kayo is not very smart. Pay a little more and get access to so much more with Foxtel. Kayo is unreliable, and a rip off... legit the only streaming service I ever tried for one month and was like, nope, never again.

  • winrgrin06
    Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported

    @Ryandally08 Perhaps 7,9,10 and SBS and WIN too who all get a subsidy and tax breaks to broadcast. I mean even Foxtel got $30 mill perhaps shut them down too. Radio….well that’s ****. Shut them down as well.

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help How are we meant to watch anything when we keep getting playback errors popping up the last 2 days? Surely you come up with a resolution

  • Duckimusprime
    Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported

    @Sam957063743921 @jamesxclean @jarrodwalsh That would've meant a lot, not Foxtel deciding to broadcast his emotional reaction. If you want to see how bad a call that is watch the Crows post of the moment, where they cut Jordan out.

  • claychuckyclay
    ClayChucky (@claychuckyclay) reported

    Given how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1

    @hook_gc @FOXNRL It's Fox, try and cancel foxtel for an elderly relative. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.

  • bimmyjartel
    Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported

    @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.

    @lui_zacher Lui pull the post down. It was a Foxtel error not a game day clock. ****

    @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.
