    @FOXTEL_Help - So when nothing that supposed to work doesn't, and you don't have Real Person online Chat, and if you did, would take a couple of hours trying to solve a problem that can't be solved by Web Page or Live Chat, what are customer's supposed to do.

  • Ozsportsradiomc Ozsports Radio - Match Day Crew (@Ozsportsradiomc) reported

    @SharonG94202118 @SuperNetball I don't understand I am watching live games on Foxtel with no problems. Channel 505

  • compaqfw22 Racing Viewer (@compaqfw22) reported

    @samdaddow03 @StanSportAU @IndyCar If you supported Indycar being shown on Foxtel, then you should support it being shown on Stan. The Stan coverage has been superb so far

  • StrategicPrism Strategic Prism (@StrategicPrism) reported

    Australia’s main satellite operator #Foxtel has announced it will suspend broadcast support of #RT channels to its 3.8mn subscribers. I am not sure why block press? Let people hear both sides of the story if that's what it is.

  • Gergyl Gerg (@Gergyl) reported

    @QuantumHawk666 A better fix would be to dump @Foxtel platforms.

  • mollerchil Erich Möller (@mollerchil) reported

    @Foxtel_Newsroom @Foxtel @FlashNewsAU We pay for a service not censorship!

  • HaydonPeter Peter Haydon (@HaydonPeter) reported

    How are we supposed to be properly informed about the Ukraine conflict when Foxtel blocks us from seeing one side of the story. Unblock RT now. Cancel my Foxtel subscription #RTNews #Foxtel

  • LOGAN_TIM Chronny Weissmuller (@LOGAN_TIM) reported

    Channel 658 has been down for 40 something minutes @foxtel what's the deal?

  • IncidentWorld Incidents World Wide (@IncidentWorld) reported

    @ShuttleAlmanac @RT_com Was taken down by foxtel

  • tobyHellyeah ybot (@tobyHellyeah) reported

    @sophieelsworth @RT_com @Foxtel We still want to see what they are saying. What is the problem here?

  • GLComputing Mike Lazarus 👹 (@GLComputing) reported

    Why does @Telstra or @NBN_Australia never know when there's an outage on my business connection, but @Foxtel (on the same HFC cable) can confirm it?

  • SouthernTrader3 Emperor NoKlothes (@SouthernTrader3) reported

    @Foxtel HOW DO I CANCEL MY SUBSCRIPTION NOW YOU'VE BANNED RT?

  • HaydonPeter Peter Haydon (@HaydonPeter) reported

    @Foxtel How are we supposed to be properly informed about the Ukraine conflict when Foxtel blocks us from seeing one side of the story. Unblock RT now. Cancel my Foxtel subscription #RTNews #Foxtel

  • tatrooster TatRooster (@tatrooster) reported

    @westiestylz Benji or Justin? @benjimarshall2 was great on Foxtel tonight.. was Justin terrible?

  • tofar1 Bryn Davies 🇷🇺 (@tofar1) reported

    RT news is being blocked throughout the world. One view is all thats allowed now. Lucky you can still get it live on YouTube. **** you @Foxtel you pathetic parasite. Remember to get rid of sky news after darks they're even worse or cnn when the US invades their next country

  • Mike_Tuckerman Mike Tuckerman (@Mike_Tuckerman) reported

    @michaelbodey @Foxtel Yeah, I was watching it the other night just to see what sort of unhinged lunacy they were running with. Censorship is something we should never take lightly but it certainly wasn’t adding anything of value.

  • DogStar_01 DogStar (@DogStar_01) reported

    Just had the ultimate pleasure of cancelling @Foxtel as their ****** IQ box hasn't worked since November and they've played it out as long as possible with bullshit promises. This is a 3rd world service and the joy of giving @rupertmurdoch less of my money has made my Sunday.

  • hotplates Mac Ross (@hotplates) reported

    @kayosports for a premium priced subscription your app and interface are trash. A very poor CX. Hasn’t changed in years. Invest in your platform to justify the high cost. Lift your game Kayo @Foxtel

  • Rorsroars Rors (@Rorsroars) reported

    @AaronLessis Any power surge? Happened to us about 7 years ago. The lightning hit the stink pipe 2 doors down. Fired our tv, DVD player, Foxtel box, modem & stereo/soundbar Check your fuses & safety switches 👍🏼

  • PaulMar10374531 Paul Martin (@PaulMar10374531) reported

    @sophieelsworth @RT_com @Foxtel Is that called « cancel culture »?

  • TigerFraze Fraze... (@TigerFraze) reported

    @RezaPars Bit ordinary if you're a Foxtel customer

  • FrogAdams frog adams 🐸🐸 (@FrogAdams) reported

    @JohnoB82985323 Lucky I bought a carton Johno. Can't get out again. So it's bottles at home watching foxtel. Damn rain and having one road in and out that's flooded.

  • FlyingWombat999 Wombat (@FlyingWombat999) reported

    @Goalkickingguru Australian government has shut down rt on Foxtel mate Australia is free nope @Goalkickingguru

  • Davidgt84 David Thompson (@Davidgt84) reported

    @sophieelsworth @RT_com @Foxtel About ******* time! It should never have been on, it was just after the Crimes Annexation it started airing

  • Davidgt84 David Thompson (@Davidgt84) reported

    @sophieelsworth @RT_com @Foxtel About ******* time! It should never have been on, it was just after the Crimea Annexation it started airing

  • HaydonPeter Peter Haydon (@HaydonPeter) reported

    @AndrewBeatty Very disappointing. How are we supposed to be properly informed about the Ukraine conflict when Foxtel blocks us from seeing one side of the story. Cancel my subscription

  • FlyingWombat999 Wombat (@FlyingWombat999) reported

    @AnnaRawlings_ @SkyNewsAust Australian government has told Foxtel to shut down rt on Foxtel so basically and news outlet that pushes the government's native just shut it down basically @AnnaRawlings_

  • Mark_S007 Mark S 🇿🇦 🇦🇺 (@Mark_S007) reported

    @Foxtel poor customer service and worse case resolution. One very unhappy customer. @FOXTEL_Help

  • EnsignR Ross the Refactorer 3x💉🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺🀄🐇 (@EnsignR) reported

    I never thought I'd ever be congratulating @Foxtel for doing the right thing, but by halting transmission of RT they've done exactly that. Good on you @Foxtel.

  • BarryAdlam Bazza (@BarryAdlam) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help - So if you don't offer Technical Support anymore, I guess I will have contact the Telecommunications Ombudsman to make a complaint, because Foxtel should provide Support when customers have problems, and I am unable to use Foxtel at this point.
