-
Mr Clown (@clownfeatures69) reported@Foxtel day off 3 games of NBA and you pick the worst game to show.
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.
-
InnerQuasar35 (@Pom_Bazooka) reported@intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.
-
Alex Sar #DonTheSash (@alexmatthewsar) reported@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.
-
Camorae5196 (@camorae5196) reported@realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho
-
Greg1956 (@Greg19562) reported@KatyKray73 I pay for foxtel but their news is on there. I want it ****** off and a discount thanks. In other words **** off you dog!
-
Phillip Smith (@csnphl) reported@FOXNRL turn up the commentry in Wests v Parra We cant hear them over crowd noise Foxtel treating customers like **** again
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@CosmicRichy @AlboMP BigPond Broadband & Landlines, Google, Adobe, MSN, Hotmail, iTunes and FOXTEL is the worst
-
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
-
JAMpresident (@JAMpresident) reported@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.
-
my3epaulets (@my3epaulets) reportedDamn kinda need The Twelve season 4.. @Foxtel pls
-
Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported@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.
-
Lexi (@InternetPiglet) reported@tresantes Sidenote i think i might be the reason foxtel now makes you sign up for every channel to get the documentary ones at all now, because i was watching that **** for like 10 hours a day for years and only paying $10/mth, it had to have been a loss for them
-
King Pauly (@SirSonicPauly) reportedI don't understand how company's like telsta, foxtel etc Keep increasing prices but you get no extra value or better service or anything. Bills keep going up and the government just wants to tax us more and does nothing about it.
-
Franky Kugisaki (@FrankyKugisaki) reported@krzyasf4u @Vin_cent00 Nah just never watched this. I was a Ben 10 kid back in the day plus only my Grandma had Foxtel so I had no access to this show
-
LeTigre (@LeTigre_12) reportedCan Foxtel turn down Garry Lyons microphone? He does not shut up
-
Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported@matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?
-
ash 🦕 (@lovronolastname) reported@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 😭
-
Dan (@Dan90091917) reported@Frumpy45 @SC___Scout Kayo doesn’t have channel numbers like Foxtel does retard
-
Flinders Ranger (@FlindersRanger) reportedthank goodness for @Foxtel and online services, because watching a local commercial TV “news” service (@9NewsAdel) that carries a football story as lead in the middle of a fuel crisis, is just not an option any more
-
Warthog (@edwarner57) reported@DanielGarb So not the week to cancel my Foxtel account
-
OzPandaCollectables (@Jokesterz420) reported@kayosports BRU fix your ******* app we pay $40 a ******* month I can legit pay $15 more and have Foxtel with the sports channel…..
-
El Gordo Ciclista (@elgordociclista) reported@inthebarberry @CattardSlim It’s owned by Fox, so why is anyone to expect? Ironically, Foxtel (basically the country’s biggest cable network and owned by Murdoch) has Sky News and CNN on consecutive channels. Go figure.

Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
