@kitjoegia @Foxtel @SkyNewsAust I don't care if people are rich from providing fantasy like GOT, but when **** is put to air on Sky and pretends it's factual news, that's not right.

@PrimeVideo charging $4.99 for a 1987 movie is bloody rich. We were just cruising through looking for something fun to watch instead of D grade stuff. It’s **** like this that keeps people with @Foxtel #predator

@mariewalsh18 @slpng_giants_oz ... just one more thing Twitter makes NO $$s for Murdoch he could not give a crap - he relies on clicks on his digital platforms for revenue & newspapers sold ... imho: his lifeboat is Fox US & Sky UK Foxtel pays no tax & has to be subsidised by our cruddy government

Hey @Foxtel - you got a problem. You bumped my plan up via text message, rang today to ask why, got told it’s going up again Feb 8. When I said “that’s too much I’ll cancel”, Customer Support staff literally said “No worries, give us a call to disconnect the account”. That stinks

@Foxtel what’s it take to get money that is owed to me transfered? Nobody on the phones can help me they just keep insisting on sending checks to my old address that they know I don’t live at. It’s been 2 months it’s beyond a joke!

@albericie @Optus I cancelled Foxtel recently and the experience was traumatic. I was repeatedly grilled as to why I was terminating an account I had opened 22 years ago. When I told him, he refused to accept it. I had never been rewarded for loyalty and now it as if foxtel had done me a favour.

@amy_sinclair9 Foxtel and HP giving them a run for their money with the outsourced customer service centres overseas...nothing of note gets done. Could be due to company policies and procedures

When we got broadband here 2 years ago it came with 2 years of free Foxtel Now. Trying to cancel it before I have to pay with it, they're telling me we don't have Foxtel. My kid is watching it right now...

@cornerd @the_kk Another interesting fact: even Australian professional cricketers and their families -- who need Foxtel to watch Australia's overseas Tests -- have found Foxtel's customer service to be abysmal.

@adrianbarich Thanks Barra. Foxtel IQ4 doesn't have 7Mate in high-definition. I know it's the issue of @Foxtel & @FOXTEL_Help and it's pathetic that they don't address this, but it would be ideal if you show live sport on your primary channel, 7HD.

@very_grem @JohnSarich2 The support from Murdoch's Daily Telegraph, The Australian, Sun Herald, Sky, Foxtel comes at great cost to the Australian taxpayer. $40mill to Foxtel, Tax breaks to NewsCorp, $50+ billion for a F... NBN

@bennywood1 @Foxtel Hey Ben, if you don’t mind let me know how you go, I’m in the same boat and if I cope the same crap, disconnect without a second thought. There are so many other options!
