    @foxtel your Go app is so ****, I can’t get it casting to Apple TV. The ads are ******* with the connection.

  • Bibbitybobbit13 Bibbitybobbity🐀difficult woman (@Bibbitybobbit13) reported

    @slsandpet I was getting scam texts from Foxtel about once a fortnight, then from debt collectors, telling me I owed $29. The debt collection agency name was a real one. Problem was, I've never had Foxtel and they didn’t know my name or other details. I wonder how many people fell for it?

  • xa1960 xavier axiak (@xa1960) reported

    @Foxtel The audio of the Women of Impact promo sounds absolutely ghastly. Something that sounds this horrible should not have been allowed to do to air. Where are your standards?

  • niall_bigscreen Niall Ginsbourg (@niall_bigscreen) reported

    grrrrr @Foxtel *finally* a @CollingwoodFC game not being visually butchered by @7Sport this year & you decide to use your only UHD/4k sports channel to broadcast the F1 'practice sessions' instead. So much for your promise of 'AFL in 4K' - another big #fail this year... again. 🤬

  • Mark18787662 Mark🌲🌏🌧️ (@Mark18787662) reported

    @LennaLeprena Murdochs Foxtel is losing 💸 hand over fist, good, it's over priced and a scam. He's Newsprint is heading the same way. YouTube is he's blast avenue of 💸. Fossil fuel companies are heading down the same route. Gina, Twiggy, Palmer will be 🦕 in the near future, GOOD.

  • jakeyflower Jakey (@jakeyflower) reported

    @Foxtel $104/month for kids shows..straight up robbery...crap company

  • my3epaulets Douglas Johnson (@my3epaulets) reported

    @WentworthFan14 Can't wait to finally cancel my foxtel after years of ******* around their most successful show

  • Campbell98S Stephen (@Campbell98S) reported

    @BethanyinCBR @DrWilliams this is as believable as the patient walking into the ER in the middle of the night with a foxtel remote stuck in their *** and when the nurse asks how it happened, they just say "i made popcorn & sat back down & up it went"

  • hyukenbins lagoona 🔱 (@hyukenbins) reported

    @eaudeloona nice nice ill have a look! im pretty sure we have food network idk... im too used to hotel quarantines foxtel that i cant remember what fetch tv has

  • markritcho Mark Ritchie (@markritcho) reported

    @DanielGarb @ALeague Foxtel forcing a condensed season with all these midweek games as well as rescheduled short notice games doesn't help either. But yeah, Western United doing themselves no favours not having a home ground.

  • FatsOnline FatsOnline (@FatsOnline) reported

    A Haiku about @NRL I’ve had Foxtel for 15+ years. I’ve never had to watch @channel9. I’ve got a new house, without any Foxtel. After 20mins I signed up for Kayo. #NRLRaidersSouths

  • PartayPoopar Gabriel Lucifer (@PartayPoopar) reported

    Advertising during 2021 Olympics Japan on @Foxtel should be free, ...since will ve the least watch most unsuccessful Oympics in Olympic history. Olympic Fail!

  • hailants *autistic screeching* (@hailants) reported

    I've probably watched all of Futurama, but that was back in the days I had Foxtel. Never binged them before.

  • DrG2020V Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports If you weren't convinced before, watching Langer on FOX tonight will convince you this guy is a complete f****** idiot. Presently we have the worst coach and worst captain Australia has ever had. Paine shouldn't even be in the side yet he is categorically guaranteed to stay capt.

  • my3epaulets Douglas Johnson (@my3epaulets) reported

    What is it with Australian networks not giving a **** with shows that are in their final season and barely even promoting it????? E.g. Both Foxtel and Channel 9. Wentworth and Doctor Doctor. Do better. Your networks MOST SUCCESSFUL SHOWS

  • xnetcrit Matthew Allen (@xnetcrit) reported

    Experimenting with @FOXTEL_Help twitter account to see if it might actually provide the help that @Foxtel ‘s call centre cannot. Three weeks into a complex and potentially epic customer service fail. Are people listening or not I wonder.... #autoethnography of social media

  • craigcromar Crypto Cromar PTG (@craigcromar) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    @Foxtel scrap the gold sliver and bronze level crap treat all you customer's the same

  • Farkov Alec Ф (@Farkov) reported

    @SkyNewsAust Didn’t the government give Foxtel a good chunk of money for no reason whatsoever. Funny how that’s never mentioned on Sky

  • QandAinPublic Jeremy Thompson (@QandAinPublic) reported

    @Foxtel I'd rather tap dance in a minefield wearing clown shoes than subscribe. Your service is the worst out of all the streaming services and it costs more than the others combined. Australia is sick of Murdochracy. Go jump over the brown log...

  • ShaneM_Anderson Shane Anderson 🏳️‍🌈 (@ShaneM_Anderson) reported

    @AaronDries I had to watch the whole of THE DEER HUNTER cropped caise it was cropped on Google, Foxtel, Itunes, everywhere. Did you complain and tell Amazon to fix the aspec ratio?

  • JasonSciberras Jason Sciberras (@JasonSciberras) reported

    i really can't wait for the @ALeague season to be over so i could cancel @kayosports. so tired of these issues of always starting it from the start and clicking live. just over how kayo is. hopefully as soon as i move out i get foxtel or something because @kayosports is rubbish!

  • The_Man_Of_Teal Scottie J - Man of Teal (@The_Man_Of_Teal) reported

    @jacobcurulli @Foxtel Damn it I was going to make that joke

  • Spi_AU Spi (@Spi_AU) reported

    It's also bloody stupid that Foxtel won't sell you their docos package anymore without getting *everything* ($105/month!) Granted, other streaming may work. Disney+ for NatGeo, maybe Britbox for Attenborough stuff (no Discovery+ in AUS yet). Cheaper, but fragmentation is awful.

  • ImPaul23 paul (@ImPaul23) reported

    Great just changed from Foxtel cable to the dish and now it’s gone out due to bad weather! 🤬🤬🤬

  • xnetcrit Matthew Allen (@xnetcrit) reported

    The joy of being an adjunct prof is that I can spend most of the day engaging with customer service staff from several companies and call it research. Props to @ANZ_AU And @Qantas. Boo hiss unnamed couriers. @Foxtel jury still out but not looking good. #FirstWorldProblems

  • FlameRoastToast Andy Corrigan (@FlameRoastToast) reported

    @Shuttlecock Yeah, it’s nice to have the option. Wife wanted the Mighty for recording after ditching Foxtel, it was actually the Xbox stopping TV listing support that made us look at the minis. Agree broadcast TV is mostly trash, though.

  • kevinchiat Kevin Chiat (@kevinchiat) reported

    @bertha_c They shut down the Disney Movies channel on Foxtel in Australia as part of the set up of Disney+ (the regular Disney cable channel is still there though). Saying that the Fox Sports channels are shutting is strange though as Fox Sports is a different company to Disney

  • nailedsaviour Scott Bonnacon (@nailedsaviour) reported

    @Foxtel I'd rather be dragged naked over a field of broken glass than give money to Murdoch

  • Dobboinaus Dobbo (@Dobboinaus) reported

    Dead set @Foxtel you can stick the satellite where the sun doesn't shine can't watch @abcnews and if i miss @Richmond_FC I cancel 2moro #
