    @HEdwardfan @luannsmugshoot @Foxtel It really wasn’t that bad just in comparison to the other seasons it fell short but I still think they deserved a 6th and I’d be more inclined to believe it’ll come if they hadn’t teased it for the past 3 years 💀

    @Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

    I misspoke, the Foxtel go app is just as bad as kayo.

    @AlboMP Please make Foxtel number one target! They make it very difficult to cancel and make you go through a lengthy phone call. No online or postal option to cancel.

    Never thought i’d have a phone call with anyone as absolutely useless as @Foxtel All I wanted was a replacement box, it took 1 hour to reach that conclusion. They were supposed to call me back 3 days ago and never did, this was me calling them a second time. 1/2

    @AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot

  • DetroitLemons99
    Dariyen Jones (@DetroitLemons99) reported

    @FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it

    @Foxtel can someone explain to me why I can stream ANY movie on ANY streaming service no issues. I can play MMO's at 60fps, no issues. But, I cannot watch a simple game of NRL without you guys killing my viewing pleasure with 2 minutes of game time, and 5 minutes of buffering?

    I haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job **** you @Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?

    Frank (@FrankieJBroph) reported

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    i did a mock order on the foxtel website to see how much it would be to potentially get one. ever since i’ve had them calling me 5-7 times a day 😭 one way to lose a potential customer!

    @HostShinyoku @LesniakAndrew42 @kazakura_22 Game of Thrones is a great example. When it was on air, Australia was a massive pirate of the show. People were downloading torrents. Why? Because the only way to watch was with a ******* Foxtel subscription (cable TV contract). Everyone said **** that.

    @Ausbobsmit Knifing Tony Baloney was a fine public service. You forget Tony brought us world slowest copper wire internet to save Rupert Murdoch’s satellite Foxtel crap from being dumped in the bin. The man in the photo had to sell the dog to us. Not me - I was one of first fibre connected.

    @lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.

    Just one replay so far on Foxtel. Good. Too bad there have been 100's of replays of Elijah Hollands. Not all injuries are visible.
