  • ivandilber Antony (@ivandilber) reported

    @damodeblasio @Dan_Mose @7AFL Probably cancel your Foxtel subscription Damo, if you have one.

  • rooboy1988 JT (@rooboy1988) reported

    @Foxtel @Chrismu30875787 Kinda the point is that there SHOULDN’T be any ads on a service that you pay for. Foxtel sucks

  • grantblair9 Brizkiwi (@grantblair9) reported

    Watching the Alex Jones verdict, I’m thinking maybe the people over at Foxtel should be getting worried. They have also pushed lies and deceit that did a great deal of damage to individuals and companies.

  • sassafras34 Sarahssafras34 Artworks 🔞🏳️‍🌈 (@sassafras34) reported

    Ever since an enforced @Foxtel update last Thursday night, none of the apps have been working properly. Amazon Prime, SBS OnDemand, Disney Plus, either not loading, or crashing, and SBS in particular reseting to the beginning of programmes. Anyone else having this issue?

  • DouglasHolgate Douglas Holgate (@DouglasHolgate) reported

    @ESPNAusNZ And we can’t watch it. Utterly **** service. Can’t get ESPN without physical Foxtel or Fetch which I don’t want. Pathetic. Why don’t you want my money?

  • ultimablackmage Jean-Paul Bartolomei (@ultimablackmage) reported

    @ParamountPlusAU can you PLEASE get a native app made for the Xbox & PlayStation game consoles along with Foxtel iQ3, iQ4 and iQ5! You need to make your service more available to people! It's like you don't have a clue how to make money.

  • messyjez Messy Jez (@messyjez) reported

    Bloody hell, the New Zealand TV commentary for T20s is almost as bad as Foxtel in Australia! I’m not sure they’ve ever heard of the concept of not saying something because the picture tells the story! #PAVVBAN

  • jpw84 Jonathan (@jpw84) reported

    @Shuttlecock It doesn't help that it's hidden away on Foxtel here, rather than airing on a big channel like it does in the UK.

  • sue_mcgorlick Sue McGorlick (@sue_mcgorlick) reported

    @Foxtel Don’t support Murdoch

  • sportmeister_ Chris Meister 🏏⚾️🏈🏒 (@sportmeister_) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @kate_880 @ESPNAusNZ I don't have a Foxtel login I only have Kayo but think I have a fetch code from a mate so that might work

  • poc125 paul o'callaghan (@poc125) reported

    @RodderzNow problem with Foxtel...They are behind an episode

  • DMBsayswhat BMDsayswhat (@DMBsayswhat) reported

    @IBlitz6 @ESPNAusNZ @kayosports Am guessing they reap payment but no setup costs by dealing with Kayo. I'll throw in that the whole Foxtel/Kayo deal is garbage and if a decent sports streaming service was available it would be a huge loss to them.

  • steveburgess23 Steve Burgess (@steveburgess23) reported

    @robtoddler I’ve got a theory that streaming is bad for sport. I used to watch heaps more random sporting events when Foxtel was a monolithic monopoly.

  • T17Nguyen Tai Nguyen (@T17Nguyen) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Geez get over it. If a fan can’t differentiate between the players and have to rely on the jersey number then the game got a problem. Have a look at the other sports with a worldwide audience.

  • dancer_61 Jill P🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@dancer_61) reported

    @Foxtel House of the Dragons & The Winchesters!Loved Got (except for the ending - they shld never have rushed that season!) but I’m a Supernatural addict and miss that show so much (thank god for reruns/streaming!) and can’t wait to see if this will live up to the OG but in its own way!

  • killerofsnakes BT (@killerofsnakes) reported

    I have traveled to Boston to see this team! I shouldn’t have to cancel kayo & change to foxtel I order to watch my team. We all know there’s ways around it, but it shouldn’t be this difficult. Give kayo subscribers the same option!

  • JParlamentas Joanna Ziemer💉💉💉💉#VoteYes #IStandWithDan (@JParlamentas) reported

    @Foxtel Thanks but NO! I will never ever give Murdoch 1 cent of my money.

  • TashWaveRider Natasha Damar (@TashWaveRider) reported

    @Foxtel 🙄🤮🤮 Fox is not a real network no thanks

  • aflprops2020 AFL Props (@aflprops2020) reported

    @JackJumpers @kayosports @Foxtel I’d it ain’t broke don’t fix it

  • aflprops2020 AFL Props (@aflprops2020) reported

    @JackJumpers @kayosports @Foxtel If it ain’t broke don’t fix it

  • bjcameron100 Ben Cameron (@bjcameron100) reported

    @Foxtel Alex Jones smashed. Now for FOX network and the Murdochs!!!!

  • Dopdoo4 Dopdoo 419 (@Dopdoo4) reported

    @mirandadevine Cancel your Foxtel account

  • outbackalan Alan (@outbackalan) reported

    @abcnews At least the 4/5 minutes of ads is better than what foxtel people have to deal with. At present it about 10/15 minutes per hour.Wish I had this choice It sucks have to deal with foxtel but living out bush and on satellite internet (150GB a month for 6 people) cant get Netflixs.

  • DallasLewis_Aus Dallas Lewis (@DallasLewis_Aus) reported

    @thehill I used to enjoy watching CNN, but can't any longer since CNN sold exclusive rights to Rupert Murdoch's Foxtel streaming service in Australia.

  • brettadam_23 Brett Graham 🌱 (@brettadam_23) reported

    @1HalfWit @TwoPaddocks Foxtel produced The Twelve which I’ve heard was pretty good, I haven’t watched it. I have no problem with cross promotion, it’s not like he’s hanging out with Rupert. Also, Telstra has a decent stake in it but no one mentions that.

  • belindasmilne Belindasmilne (@belindasmilne) reported

    @abcnews I’m not paying for ads. Full stop. That’s why I refuse to have Foxtel. If Netflix thinks they can use their ad service to jack up the price for everyone else, I have two words for them Good Bye

  • stockwell_c Charlotte says 🇺🇦 🐀🎾🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🍾🇳🇿🇦🇺🎻 (@stockwell_c) reported

    And here’s the rain. How do I know? The Foxtel signal just died.

  • timwoneill Tim O'Neill (@timwoneill) reported

    @Telstra I'm in the app, chatting to your customer support team now. Just the normal Foxtel + Telstra muck-around, nothing you can solve in Twitter I doubt!

  • kate_880 Kate (@kate_880) reported

    @ClayTRON3 Obviously not ideal through a TV format, but the ESPN app/watch ESPN online allows you to use a foxtel login to watch

  • Benjamincraig01 Benjamin (@Benjamincraig01) reported

    Is the cricket aussies vs poms or India live on channel 7 or still on the stupid pay tv kayo foxtel or what ever
