    @gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)

    @tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it 😭

    @CurttiMagurtti Was never a Disney channel person we watched Cartoon network and Boomerang when we had Foxtel.

    @NetballAust Well done to Netball Australia for a historic TV Rights Deal with the Nine Network for the next Five years and taking it off Foxtel.

    @mitchellnash92 Will cancel my foxtel subscription because I will have no joy in watching the midweek shows this year.

    @tresantes Not to mention it wasn't even 1080p and had some kind of anti-piracy black strip running up one side. It led to a great article in one of the papers: "Australia doesn't have a piracy problem. Australia has a Foxtel problem".

    @sashaneedssleep Same on regular foxtel. Might be a SkyF1 issue.

    Please someone explain - Why is AFL on Foxtel with a Hindi call - WTF has this country become. “Time to rid the gardening of twitch”

    @ranmasaotome96 Game of Thrones being locked down by Foxtel forced it. I would have bought day-of released episodes via iTunes or Xbox Video if given the option. But nooooo- had to go sign an exclusivity deal with Foxtel.

    @BingIsBackBaby @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help I’ll try that. It’s hard because the product website says one thing and their staff say another. But yes I’ll call next week and eventually I’ll get it sorted. But yeah, horrible experience every time I have to adjust anything. Terrible call center except for the Australian one.

    @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

    @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.

    @7AFL Whats up with the signal? Its stuttering but all fine on foxtel

    @purplepingers The hole for the Foxtel cable was likely drilled through the channel in the roof iron so water drips down when it rains. Happened with my satellite internet, 30 mins after installers left there was a downpour and a literal torrent of water poured out the wall plate into the modem

    @ScottBornAgain I was never asked to sign a release even digitally to do tmz and that’s illegal, anyone want to help me here or am I just gonna sit here forever I have proof they used it for money making advertising ventures as I was able to screen record it off the app mind you it’s a foxtel company.

    @Michael94858047 Streaming services are ******* ridiculous. Prime is not the same as foxtel obviously but all the payments and then still gotta purchase **** it's ******* bullshit

    @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.

    @FOXTEL_Help foxtel support is crap but you can still see crap, foxtel support does not exist. It is 9am qld time and no support. Calls hang up and no agents online in the super fast agent support

    How the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    @matt__nicholls Yeah sucks. Think foxtel/kayo should focus on getting more sport leave the movies/tv to the streaming sites. Cos fta cant to do sports well. And having sport split over multiple site sucks. Would be so bad if all tennis was on one all motorsport on another but when sports are over 2 or 3 it sucks.

    @StreamOnMax please fix your app. It glitches at every pseudo ad break requiring a restart. Super annoying and so cheap. #foxtel @Foxtel
