FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@timritchie It was failed PM John Howard that sold off Telstra to the tax payers that already owned it. A disgraceful act when we also needed to upgrade to the optic fibre network at the same time. The LNP / Foxtel version of the NBN was another disgraceful failure ....
-
Titus Livius (@bardostate1965) reportedJust went to Foxtel to watch Collingwood game and they’re playing some team with an Aboriginal name. AFL is so woke. I’ll never watch another game again. I’m ******* sick of the pandering. #aflnorthsuns
-
~ sea of mediocrity ~ (@ragecherry) reported@mickgleeson Kayo is terrible, but oddly enough Foxtel Go never drops out, despite being the same feed from the same company.
-
Span (@leespanos) reported@centralNRL Watching the games on the Ch9 1080i broadcast is horrible viewing vs Foxtel true HD and 4k. It just can’t be awarded back to @NRLonNine on this basis alone, with their complete disregard for the @NRL fans viewing experience. Commentary is fine, but low res is just rubbish
-
squash (@o7squash) reportedhow ******** is foxtel still in business
-
Ric S. AU (@RicS37759479) reported@Pivotonian1838 @SkyNewsAust @Foxtel ADS...bad ads for retards,ultratards who might want to light up the ole fishn hole.
-
Karen Walker (@KarenWa13145181) reportedAndrew Bolt shut up I loved your show but now now I won't am cancelling my Foxtel if you are so smart what is your solution for these þerrorist I'm disappointed
-
tsell (@TsellSellersfam) reported@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.
-
Yeezalicious (@Yeezalicious69) reported@PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy
-
Mark Fawcett (@mfawcett1977) reported@Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.
-
Rachel (@beetwoot) reported@FOXTEL_Help so apparently your live chat only works up to the point of saying “it’s still not working” and then they drop the chat.
-
AKoz9 (@Koz9A) reported@RealSprat Might try that. There's definitely just the one playlist atm, and never been that kind of option before. Could be a shortcoming of Prime through Foxtel box, so might try in a diff interface.
-
Dingus wingus (@drewwharton) reported@catgirlprostate I don't think TV in Australia is that bad but the British channel that my mum watches on Foxtel is especially bad.
-
Michael (@Migel7911) reported@Tuxy81 Cheaper to buy Foxtel go between 2 people and share the login. It is still a rubbish app but can save you a few $$
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported@Optus @alexblair_1 First thing I would check is Alex on Kayo or Foxtel? Everyone complains about Kayo I constantly have issues with Foxtel through the internet continuously buffering while my download speeds are in the 80s!
-
Craig (@staggy33) reported@IWonderWhyNow @Foxtel Like ffs, Carlton made it a 3pt game & the 1st thing kingy mentions is that Daicos has been on the bench for a few minutes....... *******.
-
Adam (@AdamTurbil38435) reported@Markedw For the SBS to outbid the likes of foxtel or Amazon . If a publicly funded network can outbid paid services.. maybe it should be looked at
-
Ramdas Raymond (@chewie1238) reportedFoxtel and Prime Thumbs Down Every Time.
-
Jason robert (@JasonR69737) reported@SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus Would the AFL be secretly hoping that Foxtel retain the broadcast rights to the NRL given that it's foreign ownership would have to consider the network's future if it lost the NRL?
-
kylie bowers (@KYEZZACHEIFZ) reported@Theblackfemini3 I’m with you I have every bloody streaming service but there just all repeats from the old Foxtel and the new crap only a gem here and there but for 3 months now **** all to watch on any of them
-
Jackie Chan (@JackieChan87805) reported@Tksed_1 @FinancialReview Stan is struggling with B grade sports content Rugby EPL etc & thats the groups biggest income source.. They made a bold , HUGE play for the biggest sport in the land the NRL & that would have seriously harmed DAZN/foxtels viability so DAZN/foxtel said **** you !!
-
PellaPeptides (@pellapeptides) reported@RalphyHeraldSun Channel 7 is blurry crap. Hate Grand Final day when Foxtel can't telecast the game in 4k Ultra.
-
George Munro (@ornums53) reported@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.
-
Sports Turmoil (@sixtiessongs) reported@10SportAU @alexbozmorty Getting the A League back onto Foxtel or Stan Sports would help.
-
Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported@codenrl **** I feel sorry for people who don't have Foxtel and have to put up with retarded old **** head every week!
-
bec s (@bec_8888) reportedJust lost the foxtel signal (must be lots of rain coming) lucky @abcsport working to listen to magic round games @QuentinHull @zanofc Billy Moore
-
Judy Bourke (@judithbourke) reported@TraceyLee_07 Try Foxtel all it is repeats Really we are paying for a service not repeats
-
the cat (@boogiecat11) reported@LeagueScenePod Paying fans that get kayo or Foxtel shouldn’t be forced to watch grand finals and origin games on a **** free to air with commercials.
-
Paul Corlson (@pauljc26) reportedMan @Foxtel have some utter trash shows on the service now, they want to hope they get the tv rights for the NRL again or people will leave in droves
-
Leigh (@hinterland33) reported@sportandracing @AussieNinerGuy @footyindustryAU Um Yes AFL broadcast agreement with the Seven Network & Foxtel includes built-in annual indexation Compound Growth: The contract features an in-built indexation rate, which represents a compound annual growth rate of about 3.6% for the rights fees over the life of the agreement
