@LachlanB_ @kayosports_help both the content and the technical infrastructure is poor - it shuts down if you get a call, email or sms on iphone - abc iview is far superior technically - kayo next to useless on iphone - they dropped sky news without notice - foxtel, foxsports, kayo all basket case

I’m all for for open communication in relationships and all but when the Foxtel guy is asking me if there’s anything I enjoy about the service and if there’s anything they can do to retain me while I’m trying to cancel? Pathetic. I’m breaking up with you Troy

Foxtel signal keeps dropping out. Did someone forget to dial before they dug or something? This tweet brought to you by mobile data because WiFi is just as intermittent.

So @Foxtel I hope you have a ******* belter of an offer for me to renew my contract next time it's up cause paying you what I do for you to bump live W-league in favour of Boxing, Lawn Bowls and the top 20 beat Supercar races is pretty ****. #PERvSYD

@TelstraEnt What crap,how bout delivering the basics you sell?After 65+ years as Telstra customers my parents were forced to leave you & go to Optus after a debacle of an NBN setup. Theyve paid $250+ a month for 20 years for internet & foxtel, 1/2

@SupercarsParity Because murdoch hasnt endeared himself to a lot of the Australian public, that’s why people do care who owns it. Just look at what news limited did to rugby league. Supercars would keep running just fine without Foxtel money. And if it doesn’t, then it never deserves to go on

@redamoor @MickLynch_Age I had precisely the same problem last night - Sony Bravia working fine for TV and Foxtel, but not 'seeing' my Optus wifi which was working perfectly on other devices. Rang the Sony 1300 this morning: simply do a hard restart by pressing on/off button on remote > 5 secs

Email subject: Add on Foxtel from Telstra! Me to self: Wonder how much it is, always been so over-priced I've never bothered. *scans email* Me to self: $50 for 12 months. Wow, cool. Guess I'm a good customer, x3 mobiles, broadband. *reads properly* Me to self: $50 a month. ****.

@Foxtel Anyone home? I’m still waiting for you to fix this! You’ve been overcharging me for yonks. I’ve returned your box. It’s a measly $139. Everyone on the Board likely spent more on lunch! Pony up!

@meiselasb He's correct about Australian current affairs programs; there is little tolerance for lies & BS on a majority of these programs here in Oz, but the only cable station here is called Foxtel & is owned by Murdoch's News Corp; the 'opinion' shows on Foxtel as bad as Hannity, et al.

@EstherDarling4 @Foxtel Noo none of it would have happened! He wouldn't have broken the engagement. But then there wouldn't be the promise of Season 2 and more Sidney & Charlotte! Oh the dilemma. #Sanditon #SaveSanditon #SanditonPBS

@GuardianAus I saw he had problems with Sam Neill’s series on ABC via Foxtel of all things, so I binged it. I can’t see what his problem was. I now conclude he is simply a caricature of outrage without context.

Seriously @Foxtel waiting 1 week to see if the issue resolves itself before escalating a case to @NBN_Australia is not conducive to making happy customers that recommend you services to others 🙄🤨😡

So no free-to-air coverage of the Perth SuperNight round at Wanneroo Raceway this year. If you don’t have @Foxtel you can watch reruns of crap American sitcoms on @Channel7 or @7mate. #RepcoSC

I hate it when a movie's digital streaming rights have been bought by the worst streaming service (@Foxtel) in Australia. Forces me to go and buy the movie because there's no way imam supporting that woefully outdated service.
