Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Charlie Sheehan (@pauliewalnut) reported@FOXNRL I signed up for Foxtel in 1992 primarily for the rugby league coverage….i hope like hell they lose the broadcast rights ! Ennis, Voss, Duke, Alexander are ****** terrible commentators
-
mªdcªtjo (stay) 2.0 (metres away from me) (@madcatjo2point0) reported@MikeCarlton01 I watched a few episodes of "The Mansion" (an ABYSMAL sketch comedy show he co-hosted on Foxtel) & as such have always been "triggered" by him. I thought it was me, but nah he sucks. Grace Tame is a deadset legend.
-
catherine (@CathP82) reported@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.
-
𝕹𝖔𝕯𝖚𝖓𝖓𝖞𝕻𝖆𝖕𝖊𝖗 🧻 (@blankandclear) reported@Cryptozoologis7 @SCWhisperer Slater and Smith are as bad as the two you mentioned. Thank goodness for Foxtel. Channel 9 suck!
-
Kurt (@kurtjj95) reported@centralNRL Holy ****, we are finally close to being rid of Matt Thompson. Go on Foxtel
-
Joc (@cookivirus) reported@C1_1RIS As an international fan, I find it ridiculous that the entire season isnt broadcasted by the same company But it also isn't my problem cuz foxtel broadcasts the whole season
-
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
-
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.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels All those games where afl show multiple games on seven as one game, the Foxtel ratings would be awful. Guess we never know but I used to see some games getting 80k on Fox. On par with what a league and super rugby used to get
-
Scott Patten (@Mehyouthink) reported@footyindustryAU I reckon stays at kayo/foxtel. Look what happened to A-League and Rugby when they left. You never see them on pub tvs anymore. I mean the deal for that might not be worth it but for eyes on product?
-
Milram 361 aka Nigerian Prince (@Milram361) reported@PieNorthern I know I pay overs for Foxtel but we have very few, aka zero problems watching sport. FWIIW
-
SupremeBeing (@SupremeBeing888) reportedFoxtel is worth about $4.99-$6.99 a month, it’s full of commercials… cancel your Foxtel now
-
DJ Jazzy Not Jeff (@DJ_Jazzy_JD) reported@golfon5 @AFL It was fine on Ch7. Hust a foxtel issue.
-
Matt (@MC_Hammer75) reported@Aliceh_1936 It's so conflicting as I pay for a Foxtel subscription and enjoy the NRL via Fox way more than 9, but their journalism department is a bag of *****. I've blocked them on here so I don't see their rubbish clickbait. And on Galvin, **** every journo who **** on him. Wankers.
-
Briggsy (@champingyon) reportedThe Foxtel commentary team for this Titans vs Manly game could be the worst of all time....
-
lady galadriels 🏏 @ mtcg - ishkh khakfe andu null (@miss_reys_mind) reportedtakes 3 ******* hours to watch a one hour show on hbomax with foxtel. buffers more than what you see play. on top of that the wifi drops from foxtel too. hbomax app doesnt work straight through the tv anymore. IHNFI why. i just want to watch euphuckingphoria
-
Jonathan Wilson (@jfwfreo) reported@TV_Blackbox The only losers would be DAZN (who own Foxtel and Kayo) and Nine (who own Stan) although if Nine keeps FTA rights it wouldn't be quite so bad for them.
-
Trev (@trevapchichi) reported@SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus For next years Hall of Fame, will Foxtel be asking Crown to serve meals on plastic plates? The sound of cutlery smacking crockery during Bill Walkers elevation was just horrible TV
-
Nat Geo (@___Geo__) reported@kayosports how do you expect people who live in remote Australia to be able to watch any live sports? These restrictions are absolutely ridiculous and anti consumer. The only way I can watch anything that Kayo has access to is by paying full price to a Foxtel service box?????
-
Sandy Lanceley (@sandylanceley) reported@Tuxy81 @Raiders_24Sep89 You’re both kinda correct - if no FTA network bids, then the rights can go exclusively to Pay TV - but in this instance we know a FTA network has made a bid, so Foxtel/DAZN are compelled to find a FTA partner
-
Cant Post - X Sucks (@SuthoDan2) reported@pantherman45 Disney has nfl Netflix has wwe Paramount has ufc Literally only nrl left on foxtel Big trouble
-
Ian Clarke (@ianclarkeAU) reported@GusLefty @AJG71 @karlstefanovic QED. This ALP fool doesn’t know Foxtel rolled out and paid for a cable network for far less $/ customer than the NBN. Foxtel: ~$800–$1,100 per premise. NBN: $2,000–$2,750+ per premise.
-
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
-
Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported@Ryandally08 Tony Abbott was made leader by his old mate Rupert Murdoch in order to put a very slow third rate internet system into Australia so it would not render his Foxtel by satellite service as being useless. Rupert has since sold Foxtel.
-
Rhino79 (@Reggiejets) reported@SteveMolk @WSWanderingEels Take the lot Stan/Ch9. Lifelong Foxtel subscriber, I’ll cancel subscription for Stan sports Rugby League & EPL
-
Deb (@cDebIn2050) reported@DrG2020V @GregDavis006 From what I have seen on Foxtel, it’s pretty bad
-
Ed Healey (@emptycab) reported@hpglassford i joined foxtel the day they started doing afl no regrets never watch 7 at all now
-
Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedYo Foxtel, every bloody time android updates you're way behind. Why am I paying a bill for a service I'm not receiving? I'm even on your beta test and you're still slow. I'm relying on your app on holiday ATM and nothing! #freebills @FOXTEL_Help
-
Ben (@bennyshelts) reported@andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.
-
robyn andrew (@ROBUNS) reported@sandylanceley @Channel9 @wwos I think with the new rights deal Foxtel will have the broadcast duties Maybe that may help with the coverage Stand corrected
