    Why the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    I'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬

    @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.

    @utahsocialite @Foxtel The mini revival they had the cast were awful. Ahaha you had the lady who left half way through. And the other filler people.

    @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

    @robb_j_m Making it useless and bad was the primary purpose of the 2013 Abbott government. Almost certainly at the behest of Murdoch, as it would hurt his Foxtel business.

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

    These commercials selling stuff are getting out of hand on @Foxtel, it's bad enough for pay to watch ads now we have to sit through this crap

    @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.

    @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.

    I watch almost zero free-to-air tv these days, but had to watch 9 NRL tonight bc my Foxtel was down. It’s almost unwatchable compared to Foxtel. The call was good enough, but the commentary was mind numbing. Despite the pedigree of those doing it. Surprisingly bad!

    @JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!

    Let’s be honest @7afl coverage is so much better than @FOXFOOTY this year All they need now is a couple Saturday games and i would cancel @Foxtel

    F ….me @nrl , u are ruining the game , so your not allowed to challenge for a kick , time to turn the tv off and cancel @Foxtel ,

    @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.

    Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported

    @matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?

    Flinders Ranger (@FlindersRanger) reported

    thank goodness for @Foxtel and online services, because watching a local commercial TV “news” service (@9NewsAdel) that carries a football story as lead in the middle of a fuel crisis, is just not an option any more

    @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.
