    This is really testing my last nerve No foxtel signal and slow internet 😤 fix it up fckfaces

  • ingaandsven Ms McGillicuddy🌈 (@ingaandsven) reported

    @colonelhogans @MSMWatchdog2013 So few people watch SkyNews. If you’ve got FOXTEL, cancel it.

  • captain78140963 captain kirk (@captain78140963) reported

    @Telstra how can we arrange a new plan with Telstra TV instead of foxtel and you give us the plan then you cut off our @foxtel and then don’t have our new plan or any paperwork for it. I’ve had enough. Absolute disgraceful customer service, been on text to talk for 3 hours.

  • DarrenKilminst1 dAZ from Newy (@DarrenKilminst1) reported

    @me_dc @Raiders_24Sep89 It doesn't really cost them much to have them available here. I think HBO continued with Foxtel because they think they can get more out of Foxtel compared to trying to open up their streaming service here.

  • 80sbabeeAngel Meg 🕇 (@80sbabeeAngel) reported

    Came home & my foxtel is down ☹ Missing my stingray radio so much 🎶🙃

  • WaybackBot Wayback Bot (@WaybackBot) reported

    Foxtel shuts down piracy

  • gingerest BLACK LIVES MATTER ginger (@gingerest) reported

    @nonelvis We are thinking about doing Binge but before that service came we would have had to do Foxtel (a News Corp product) to get HBO so we haven't been able to

  • slmr89 Samantha Rodgers (@slmr89) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help feels like every other day I have an issue with watching Foxtel now on any of the apps. Are you ever going to put some effort into fixing these?

  • AussieRagdoll Aussie Ragdoll (@AussieRagdoll) reported

    @fibrofroggy1 @Russputin2 No, it was a commercial agreement. Now that SCA broadcasts 10 and Win does 9 (they swapped), Sky has their own channel to spew forth their nonsense after dark. They should never have been allowed onto FTA at all. In the cities, you have to have Foxtel to access this rubbish…

  • ChrisOber ChrisOber (@ChrisOber) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help is there a broader foxtel outage on Sydney/ St ives areas today? F1012 error, internet up, Netflix over iq3 OK, no foxtel channels

  • paulgibbs007 Paul Gibbs (@paulgibbs007) reported

    Anthony Griffin's CV now reads "coach of the worst team in NRL history". And a new Foxtel Series: Wild Dragons: Tales from ***** town".

  • riktheozfrog Rik Shepherd (@riktheozfrog) reported

    @LRH38 Why waste money on a RC? We KNOW what's wrong AND we know how to fix it. A subscription service like Foxtel. THEN we'd see how "popular" their opinions are

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    If I want badly see a movie that is up on the Foxtel store I write the name down of the movie and keep checking to see when it will release on normal streaming or when it will come to the Foxtel movie channels and I check also Netflix to see if the movie has been added there too.

    @MrKRudd @AnnastaciaMP A vile rag, like the *** Daily smelly, soon as all ancient yank farts rags all fold the better,nobody under 50 would buy his **** rags now, aside from bogans *********. His empire is dying, Foxtel is losing milions, the HUNS sales have dropped 400 000 a week the OZ is rooted to

  • CraigByron1 Craig Byron (@CraigByron1) reported

    @JelisaApps I e had issues before and when you ask them they say you should scroll down and use the Foxtel channel instead. I found that is better but cannot explain why.

  • vkrsek 💧Vratislav Krsek (@vkrsek) reported

    @Foxtel @espn 1 channel to cover the #USOpen2021 ?? wtf we are tired of seeing Djokovic v Nishikori. We want to see the young up coming stars !! Give us more channels or go home.

  • Seriously2022 Mick (@Seriously2022) reported

    @Foxtel I think I've just about had a gutful of the Ads on the Universal Channel for E Channel. They are monotonous, repetitive and almost offensive. They aren't even intelligent Ads for a product, only for the crap on E. Please, enough or it might be time to change providers.

  • CallMeCatto Catto 🏈 (@CallMeCatto) reported

    @SuperNetball Terrible moving every game to Foxtel. It's the move that killed Super Rugby. I don't anyone that still has Foxtel. Great for the players to be paid, but a shame that most won't be watching now.

  • stephenc24 Steve (@stephenc24) reported

    @wesy_b Have broken 7 Foxtel remotes with my haste ;)

  • garystark Professor West Wing Fried Chicken Shack (@garystark) reported

    So, @FOXTEL_Help @NBN_Australia outage in Bondi tonight.

  • Andrewmacca27 Andrew Macca (@Andrewmacca27) reported

    NO MY FOXTEL IS DOWN AHHHHH HELP WHAT DO I DO

  • zucan2 allein morrison (@zucan2) reported

    @captain_says When we moved to Broken Hill 25 years ago I figured out how to use the Foxtel paid tv In 3 rooms with one box .the Foxtel said I was a clever person lol I also ran a computer network 4 computers one was red hat that was our mail server great no virus would work

  • GordyPls Import Pandas (@GordyPls) reported

    Foxtel tech came over, seems like there's a problem with the antenna in the building which is going to be an interesting discussion with the building manager.

  • spanner77 Viscount TJ (@spanner77) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Trying to watch our Ash Barty the US Open ,but its jumpy at best, this has made my mind up to cancel.

  • testok51981 tariq (@testok51981) reported

    @JelisaApps No issues on the 9now or foxtel apps last night for me

  • Lockhart1770 William Nelson (@Lockhart1770) reported

    @ABGale7 I've never been able afford Foxtel. My dad used to buy the Australian, along with the SMH, Guardian and Independent to compare them and get SOME semblance of the truth from the many biased sources.

  • Danza109 Dan (@Danza109) reported

    Does 7 actually broadcast the footy in HD yet? I flick over to Foxtel, because it’s actually ridiculous how poor the quality is.

  • HWCulture housewives culture. (@HWCulture) reported

    @HannahDutschke @ArenaTV @Foxtel Should be late September if it premieres end of Oct. I swear to god if they **** up this promo run 😭

  • MsJennyHunter Jenny Hunter (@MsJennyHunter) reported

    @NeilMcMahon Yes, so you can watch series 6 Line of Duty. I’ve decided to rotate streaming services. Cancelled Netflix for Britbox and will soon cancel Britbox for something else … or perhaps post-covid no streaming. We have Foxtel for AFL (I wish there as another option)
