    @FOXTEL_Help is there an internet outage ?

  • clairebbbear Clairey McSweary (@clairebbbear) reported

    I love* the thing that every Foxtel commentary team does with Mark Waugh where they show pics/footage of his younger-days mullet, fashions or terrible TV ad appearances because there's literally nothing else entertaining or interesting about him.

  • ShaneB19 Shane B (@ShaneB19) reported

    When did they **** 9go off of foxtel ?

  • JimmyEmanuel4 Jimmy Emanuel (@JimmyEmanuel4) reported

    @EvinPriest Fair, was only replying to Dan’s original query to Foxtel not having the coverage which from the replies is a common issue for a lot who subscribe there but not to Golf TV

  • CeagleChris Chris (@CeagleChris) reported

    @Foxtel i am paying a lot per month to watch a lot of fkn crap already. Watching A&E 2nite why do I need to watch 5 minute ad breaks every 5 minutes ? Fix it

  • WorimiFella Aussie Sun (@WorimiFella) reported

    @Foxtel Horrendously mismanaged process of onboarding new customers. 11 calls in 4 days to Foxtel customer service with no resolution in sight. Avoid @foxtel for your own sanity. If this is how how treat prospective customers, can’t imagine how treat treat actual customers. #Foxtel

  • Thee_Instig8or The Instigator 🌏 (@Thee_Instig8or) reported

    @FionaSmall @Foxtel I know, I just wanted to watch it live. This is bullshit service for the price they charge.

  • garthmusk Garth Musk (@garthmusk) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help @El_bgraden The foxtel app no longer works since nvida shield pro update to Android 11, when will foxtel fix app.

  • JedimasterIG88 Bacon Police (@JedimasterIG88) reported

    @Foxtel your tech support are useless and incompetent, they promised my father they would call me within 10 minutes, it has been 5 days.

  • zainprince_ Zain Prince (@zainprince_) reported

    @jamesrallan Rdo James? Or Foxtel down?

  • FroudeyBrand Froudey (@FroudeyBrand) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help how do I find internet outage?

  • clairebbbear Clairey McSweary (@clairebbbear) reported

    @monkey_brennan yeah it's a hard choice. But Foxtel also has Warne. I also found JB isn't so bad when not surrounded by enablers. For that reason, I tend to prefer Seven (which is a shame because I like all the other Foxtel commentators). And both are infinitely better than Nine's team was.

  • Bondiborn Philo (@Bondiborn) reported

    @terry_legg @firstdogonmoon And Rupert - who no way was there going to be anything that would compete with his I’m popular Foxtel cable network

  • DalesRamblings Dale's Exhausted (@DalesRamblings) reported

    @Darren_Mooney I *can* watch it, the only problem is that I would have to pay for Foxtel, which is $49/month *at the cheapest*. So I think that's gonna be a no from me.

  • johnsy123aus stephen (@johnsy123aus) reported

    @girzz0037 Yes but if they are Murdoch Journalists, he pays them to spruke his message not what’s good for the country, don’t buy Murdoch papers or subscribe to Foxtel , the other tricky one is his streaming service is called Binge

  • Denham0001 Denham (@Denham0001) reported

    @hbomax please don't sign any extensions with #Foxtel Give Australians access to your service direct.

  • Uthacalthing Uthacalthing (@Uthacalthing) reported

    @pantherman45 @FOXTEL_Help Yes there is. Nothing mentioned on their site, and my NBN link is fine, but traceroutes are all stopping inside Foxtel’s network. Hopefully a network admin somewhere is receiving a panic phone call right now and looking into it…

  • netnurse2 Elaine (@netnurse2) reported

    @Acosta I’m Australian and I’d love to watch CNN here. However I can only do so if I subscribe to Foxtel which is Murdoch’s cable service here (I won’t). Murdoch pretty much has monopoly here which is awful. Anyway I love the video clips you post of your show, thank you. #CNN

  • Thee_Instig8or The Instigator 🌏 (@Thee_Instig8or) reported

    @FionaSmall It’s not even on here. @Foxtel have 14 thousand channels and can’t spare a piece of one for Jimmy. I’m starting to think I’m wasting my money. They’re not even giving us the full two hour Lead which WAS THE WHOLE DAMN REASON I signed up in the first place. This is bullshit.

  • Rockbluewater SunshineSean. (@Rockbluewater) reported

    @PRGuy17 You buy Foxtel because you are unemployed. The more you fix that, the fewer viewers you have. Think about it.

  • The__GM The_GM (@The__GM) reported

    @Telstra @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel currently an outage - NBN at 2143. Any news/ updates?

  • Leigh_Dingo Leigh (@Leigh_Dingo) reported

    @SkyNewsAuspol @Foxtel @australiaday Sack your bloody cameramen and director. Their framing and direction is ****.

  • gumbuoy gumbuoy (@gumbuoy) reported

    I finally cancelled a streaming service! Begone, Foxtel (since we have Binge anyway).

  • robbie_stokely robbie stokely (@robbie_stokely) reported

    @bobpockrass At least they look more like the road car now compared to older cars where here in Australia we could never work out what was what half the time, I hope Foxtel here start to show more races, sick of missing out.

  • pantherman45 Ben - Teach- Full AZ power! (@pantherman45) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Hey, is there an outage for the internet?

  • FroudeyBrand Froudey (@FroudeyBrand) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help It shows nothing for my area of Bathurst and when I connect something my location is Sydney for some reason so it doesn’t really help

  • abtales456 absurdtales456 (@abtales456) reported

    foxtel and binge are so utterly terrible and the only reason they're still in business is because of old people please please please give us hbo max in australia bro this is ridiculous lmao

  • Steven831836791 Steven (@Steven831836791) reported

    @Foxtel What do I have to do for a bit of customer service if your thinking about getting foxtel don’t there nbn is the worst customer service is the worst and you still think people power won’t ruin you but watch me spread evidence of your pathetic excuse for an internet service

  • TheAlexDocherty Alex Docherty (@TheAlexDocherty) reported

    Also, could Foxtel **** off with that Woody and Cola ad? I like my bourbon and cola, but I don't need it popping up back-to-back at every ad break.
