  • steve_wells1 steve_wells1 (@steve_wells1) reported

    @Fox_Motorsport @Foxtel @kayosports Nah, the worst feeling is when you hear Mark Beretta on your Foxtel/FoxSports channel and the remote is too far away too mute the flog! #RepcoSC

  • Aaron_Amb25 Aaron (@Aaron_Amb25) reported

    @AndyLevees @artiebuco @Hitchey Isn’t a problem for the likes of Kayo. Even streaming Foxtel on my tv for footy is crystal clear HD. Stan Sport is all in HD with no issues for UCL. Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video etc are all the same with no issues.

  • HUGirl2AJ jay 🦂 where is thane krios (@HUGirl2AJ) reported

    @__quirkily Oh damn I only have Foxtel sometimes, can maybe watch at my mums though so could be okay

  • _niallsgravity caitlyn ☀️ (@_niallsgravity) reported

    Dads Foxtel deleted the finale of @TheBlock which he’d only partially watched, so I downloaded @9Now on my iPad so he could finish it. And honestly, I’m just so grateful to have moments like these after the **** few years dad has had with his health

  • El_Moz10 Maurice Chaparro (@El_Moz10) reported

    @aleaguemen tell those kents from @ParamountPlusAU to get their **** together with streaming service. An absolute joke of a service. We pay for service better than this. Give it back to Foxtel FFS!!!!

  • Anacampseros Ian (@Anacampseros) reported

    @nato_koff @ScottMorrisonMP Didn't Morrison give a fake $20 million grant to Foxtel just before all that hateful crap kicked off? And wasn't it straight after the Aged Care RC found the federal government responsible for hundreds of Covid deaths in Victoria?

  • 1TERRYPREST PREZ TEZ🦘⚡ (@1TERRYPREST) reported

    @FOXSportsAUS GENIUS DECISION @FOXSPORTS to Drop the LIVE F1 Telecast about to see TOTO & Mr Spice for a REPLAY of V8 practice=Why does FOXTEL charge a PREMIUM PRICE for SUB-STANDARD Programming decisions. Only a SPASTIC ****** would Cancel a live telecast for a REPLAY-

  • PGiapantzakis Peter Giapantzakis (@PGiapantzakis) reported

    @westsport @ParamountPlusAU Remember the issues with the EPL in its first year when Foxtel lost the rights. Also, why have two games start at the same time? Halving the viewing audience.

  • Wrongly_Excused Coach✨Craig (@Wrongly_Excused) reported

    @DebDeb41 @1116sen Yeah that’s the issue, totally agree. Hence the reason why it’s hard to make it work. If you don’t have Foxtel then you wouldn’t see a game. Good players rarely don’t want to stay there either, that makes it tough as well.

  • chmonalisa chaitanya (@chmonalisa) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help hi, cant open app with android 12, pixel phone. Please help, if you cant then there is point paying for subscription. Thanks

  • andrewl5059 Andrew Deakin (@andrewl5059) reported

    Why the radio silence on the removal of the Racing Victoria (@Racing) service from Foxtel (@FOXTEL_Help), ie former channel 529, and the disappearance of Victorian post race interviews on RV’s website & app? Lack of funds, contractual limitations?? No explanations being offered.

  • scoolm8 Shane Moran (@scoolm8) reported

    @HawkJam I think Kayo will end up being for the NRL, AFL, Cricket and US Sports . Foxtel is moving in my opinion towards News and Entertainment. Paramount were good last night but tonight have been terrible to say the least but early days I suppose.

  • periedien MV33 (@periedien) reported

    yo @Foxtel @SkySportsF1 please get this senile old **** @HillF1 of the commentary or at least get his head out of lewis’ *** every time this grandpa speaks

  • bellavenom Belle Owen (@bellavenom) reported

    @_lalaphoto @TripleB Does binge have a lot of the same content? Foxtel go is literally the worst

  • HawkJam HawkJam (@HawkJam) reported

    Hey @aleaguemen #WUNvMVC game is rooted if this **** from @paramountplus is dished up every week go back to foxtel and kayo

  • AndyLevees Andy (@AndyLevees) reported

    @artiebuco @Hitchey The production company is the same one who did all the work with Foxtel. I have faith, it was never going to be perfect from the first day, they’ll improve. They’ve invested far too much to not do it properly

  • leighroyS1977 LeighroyS (@leighroyS1977) reported

    @aleaguemen @Channel10AU Tooo bad it’s not on Foxtel

  • anthonycatalan1 tony (@anthonycatalan1) reported

    @davidmhk1 @Will_Caldwell10 Because Foxtel was real perfect like you said it’s their first week of course there is going to be teething problems

  • _lalaphoto lauren (@_lalaphoto) reported

    Is Binge as utterly **** as Foxtel Go buffering wise?

  • StuOnSunday Stu (@StuOnSunday) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Hi the Foxtel Go app doesn't seems to work on my Pixel phone after updating to Android 12. Is there a fix available?

  • skeeta2929 Reginald Mitchell Marsh Skeeta (@skeeta2929) reported

    How **** is @aleaguemen foxtel jumping ship RIP soccer in Australia

  • jrdeans5 Josh Deans (@jrdeans5) reported

    So you are telling me that we can’t watch @gomvfc vs @wufcofficial on Free to air, FOXTEL or Kayo.. but we can watch the Sydney Derby.. on Victorian free to air… the world game is dead in this country because of Optus for the Premier League and whoever’s at fault for this ****

  • tigerpops69 P (@tigerpops69) reported

    @Geurtsy @gomvfc How many bloody streaming services do I need to sign up too 😡. Foxtel, Amazon, Netflix, YouTube … it never ends!!Another ~$10 a month, here we go

  • KearneyIain Iain Kearney (@KearneyIain) reported

    @aleaguemen who ever did the deal with Paramount should be sacked. How can you leave Foxtel who have over 1 million subscribers to this new unknown service. Not everyone can keep jumping from provider to provider. Obviously a brown paper bag involved. A League revenue sure to 👎

  • chris_m_90 Christopher Michaels (@chris_m_90) reported

    @anthonycatalan1 @aleaguemen Calm down junior, I never mentioned Foxtel

  • shambolicgirl amg (@shambolicgirl) reported

    @peggymel2001 How bad is all that! And I have seen Murdoch sabotaged the NBN via Turnbull because it was a threat to FOXTEL!

    @ParamountPlusAU Wow you don’t have a Samsung app? I have an LG and was prepared to wear no app for that cos what idiot buys an LG? Please get on Foxtel asap

  • BradJYuen Brad 🇦🇺 (@BradJYuen) reported

    @ParamountPlusAU The camera vision is horrible (blurry, poor camera distance) and the audio quality is terrible. If this is the best Paramount can do give it back to Foxtel
