  • Andrew_Clifton Andrew Clifton (@Andrew_Clifton) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help Why did you cut from the UFC to an NBL game on 509? Fix it please!

  • sackers1 Rory Sackville (@sackers1) reported

    @blahdis1 @Foxtel @FootyRed1 You guys are jokers right? That game was already on another channel. It was clearly a feed issue with Foxtel Go as it was only Foxtel Go affected. Next time - fix it or at least be honest with your customers …

  • goingtherenext the world 🇦🇺 dude (@goingtherenext) reported

    @DanVaughanJr NCAA tourney question: I will actually be in Australia March 14-25th; Can I watch live NCAAs that isn't on some paid system? I think it's on Foxtel but has a paid service? Would a local bar show the game? I actually caught the end of a NCAA Sparty game at the Queenstown NZAirport

  • RickyCotton4 Big rick (@RickyCotton4) reported

    @red_eyed_goat @Campylamps @Foxtel Went through the exact same **** mate. I kicked and screamed that much they came out and replaced my box and it finally works. The iq4 box I had was too old

  • PeteMcSlappa Peter Mcslapovic (@PeteMcSlappa) reported

    @Foxtel @kayosports put the god damn ufc back on not the ****** basketball wtf !!!

  • SharkShocked SharkShocked (@SharkShocked) reported

    For those using Kayo this footy season - have you had any issues with the TV applications reliability. Looking at disconnecting Foxtel.

  • hoopscovery Hoopscovery (@hoopscovery) reported

    @ESPNAusNZ WTF The NBL is playing instead UFC on Foxtel ESPN1

  • novatrippa Novatrippa (@novatrippa) reported

    @EffinOfficial this reminds me of when I was like 9 or 10 and browsing through the Foxtel channels page and when it reached Nick Jr it said "Go Die..." (**** i wish I still had that photo)

  • akstreker The DR.33 (@akstreker) reported

    Just nestled into the couch to watch #Warney highlights and they’ve got NRL on!!?? Time to cancel. #foxtel

  • ac75ac Richard McCann (@ac75ac) reported

    @Foxtel WTF? The UFC card suddenly looks like NBL

  • MiaMcEntee Mia McEntee (@MiaMcEntee) reported

    @lizbianess @FOXTEL_Help ESPN gone too wtf Mullarkey coming up soon

  • AhmedBi44239456 AhmEd BilAl (@AhmedBi44239456) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports His Demise is very heart broken!

    @Sadio_Klopp @Foxtel I was thinking this is the longest basketball add iv watched wtf is going on!

  • Pingham4 Peter ingham (@Pingham4) reported

    @ScooterMcNeice @RobOz01 It would’ve been nice if foxtel didn’t **** the bed so we could’ve watched it

  • Sleepless121 Mel #SaveNeighbours (@Sleepless121) reported

    @StevenR06864133 Yeah Ch 7 would be good, partner them with itv or produce it solely and sell it to a UK broadcaster. There's also streaming service option here. Binge and Stan both make Aussie content, Paramount+ (Ch 10 moved Five bedrooms to there), netlix, Amazon prime. There's also foxtel.

  • OzBro_ Jay (@OzBro_) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports inglis would never

  • ntmn65 ntn65 💉💉💉 🇺🇦 (@ntmn65) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Further proof the current use of technology fails sport. Why can’t the 3rd umpire give that out? Is an all rounder now bowling, catching, betting and reviewing? There’s a simple solution to this problem and it’s not about 2 tantrums (referrals) per innings per side!

  • red_eyed_goat Ash Rogers (@red_eyed_goat) reported

    Foxtel gave us one of their voice remote controls for free. It's a piece of ****. Basically get an error message every time I try to voice search. Trash!!

  • riktheozfrog Rik Shepherd (@riktheozfrog) reported

    @maev2249 Absolutely NO argument from me. Make it a subscription service like Foxtel. THEN we'd see just how many Aussies actually use it

  • Thomas58974615 T-Bag 🇦🇺 (@Thomas58974615) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Piss poor run rate. Piss poor pitch.

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    When it rains really bad here the satellite signal on my Foxtel box goes out and it interrupts anything I am recording at the time too but when I watch the recording the interrupted signal will have a box showing signal interruption and I can use back button to get rid of it.

  • sackers1 Rory Sackville (@sackers1) reported

    @Foxtel @TamblingFanClub You guys are jokers right? That game was already on another channel. It was clearly a feed issue with Foxtel Go as it was only Foxtel Go affected. Next time - fix it or at least be honest with your customers …
