  • Guy1ncogn1t0 Guy Incognito (@Guy1ncogn1t0) reported

    So I'm going to be heading to an illegal live stream to watch the last quarter of #AFLEaglesDons, @FOXFOOTY. I'm assuming you're not going to be taking issue with this, given you're unable to provide the service I pay for? @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help

    @FOXTEL_Help Foxtel now streaming has been down for hours during the Saturday night live sports events. The live channel streaming seems to be a problem overall. When will these issues be resolved please?

  • netlton Basil Nétlton (@netlton) reported

    @essendonfc Would love to be 'watching' it live, but @Foxtel and @FOXTEL_Help sh*t the bed. Their service has been down for over 2hrs now (i.e. the entirety of this game). As a result, not able to watch 😪

  • NRLNEWS NRL News (@NRLNEWS) reported

    @suthodan @Foxtel Sounds like there were a few issues across Foxtel platforms this Super Saturday.

  • thomok6 Kristian Thompson (@thomok6) reported

    Hey @Foxtel any chance you can show the advertised programs? Us in lockdown need our footy fix as an escape!

  • chokeonacoke chokeonacoke (@chokeonacoke) reported

    At what point can we expect @newscorp - specifically @newscomauHQ - to cover the now five-hour-long @Foxtel outage? Surely your hysterical, mouth-breathing interns have reached their daily quota of articles about TikTok hacks, Chinese plastic at Kmart, and get rich quick schemes?

  • Swarzey Jamie (@Swarzey) reported

    The sad state of rugby league is that I don't feel like I'm missing anything when **** like Kayo and Foxtel Now go down.

  • mrmikeyL Mike Lagastes (@mrmikeyL) reported

    @MoleaThomas @Foxtel Oh we’re only 8 points down!

  • T3FEmr6nr7OUIeM ΑΠΟ ΠΑΝΤΟΣ ΚΑΚΟΔΑΙΜΟΝΟΣ (@T3FEmr6nr7OUIeM) reported

    @Campylamps @Bern1009 @Foxtel ****, will try turning it off and on again….

  • LMH_Melbourne LMH (@LMH_Melbourne) reported

    Is it possible to #cancel Peta Credlin without cancelling Foxtel? I want to watch trash tv in peace please. Let’s put cancel culture to good use for once #cancelcredlin

  • den_ster Armchair Commentator (@den_ster) reported

    I believe this is a denial of service cyber attack resulting in Binge, Kayo & Foxtel Go being down! Probably a big FU to the Victorians in lockdown!!

  • Guy1ncogn1t0 Guy Incognito (@Guy1ncogn1t0) reported

    So I'm going to be heading to an illegal live stream to watch the last quarter of #AFLEaglesDees, @FOXFOOTY. I'm assuming you're not going to be taking issue with this, given you're unable to provide the service I pay for? @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help

  • freo95 Freo95 (@freo95) reported

    @Carolyn218 @streaker_585 Mine is the opposite. Foxtel not working but Kayo is.

  • T3FEmr6nr7OUIeM ΑΠΟ ΠΑΝΤΟΣ ΚΑΚΟΔΑΙΜΟΝΟΣ (@T3FEmr6nr7OUIeM) reported

    @PRGuy17 mate, want to cost #NewsCorpse some money? Foxtel is down nationally (possibly just FoxtelNow), imagine that for all locked down Vic footy fans. I say refunds for al customers. @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help
