  • Scomo_Cow Scomo’s Cow (@Scomo_Cow) reported

    @TurnbullMalcolm @CourtRum This tweet took ages to load, must be the slow and ****** NBN, I wander why the NBN is so bad, it wouldn’t have be hobbled to ensure Mooodoch’s Foxtel wasn’t challenged would it?

  • _Ben_Wallace Ben Wallace (@_Ben_Wallace) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I cannot play shows on my Foxtel app on my LG TV the last day or 2. It keeps giving me Playback Error PE3016. Can you help please?

  • gingernut07 M (@gingernut07) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @Foxtel I’ve never experienced a more collective group of incompetent clueless idiots over the phone 📞 in my life.

  • RichardDive Richard “Big Green” Dive 🪶 (@RichardDive) reported

    @TimeMyth @trekkiebill Absolute bullshit that a good chunk of entertainment media is locked behind Foxtel or Binge. The latter doesn’t feel /as/ bad, but it still sucks

  • Tommy10cents Tiger Tom (@Tommy10cents) reported

    @trevorlong How did you go with the Foxtel F1 app and viewing? For me, watched all week since your @EFTM article with no issues & typical @Foxtel disaster, on day of race, cant login, sync or watch after a dozen reboots, messages, logouts etc. Sighhhhh

  • CamoLantern Moist Man 💦 (@CamoLantern) reported

    @TWGSZN @binge @Foxtel Oh damn, I didn't think about all the deals they have internationally.

  • paullatter Paul Latter (@paullatter) reported

    Just read a massive whinge from a @foxfooty commentator via SEN, as people are having a crack at the network calling @afl off tv screens and not being at the ground. Why can't you be at the ground, David King? I'm sure the paying Foxtel/Kayo customers would like to know.

  • TwitErrorer Twit Error (@TwitErrorer) reported

    @Foxtel: Absolutely disgusted by the amount of betting ads Foxtel has to/chooses to rely on for revenue. This is paid subscription service - why am I seeing ads at all, and especially harmful ones. The warnings at the end don’t nullify you complacency 💰💸

  • gnockiminag gnocki monag (@gnockiminag) reported

    When was the last **** was half fine when I was living at Albion cooked on box wine that’s a low self standard but I was having fun in a way learning experience from that is I prefer space to people and novelty’s like foxtel and having your own mattress even if it’s on the floor

  • Jordan_Patu Jordan Patu (@Jordan_Patu) reported

    WWE should be aiming to hold PPV's in at least 2 different Australian states with Rhea Ripley as their world champion. With the Foxtel partnership and the full power of the WWE marketing machine they could turn her into a massive star down here.

  • razerp Pseudo Giant (@razerp) reported

    Damn Foxtel feed is freezing up all the time, i missed both entrances for the mysterios. #WWE #Wrestlemania

  • mandyrojas23 Mandy 💉💉💉 (@mandyrojas23) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help hey guys just wanted to let me know that I can’t watch MSNBC on the Foxtel Go app. It keeps telling me that there’s a playback error & I need to go back to the home page. Can you please fix this as I would like to watch MSNBC. Thank you!

  • TondeSaba Sabs (@TondeSaba) reported

    @Foxtel f1 live coverage not working anymore om the app. Why????

  • gnockiminag gnocki monag (@gnockiminag) reported

    **** foxtel while Ike dealing with $300 a night ima not take ad breaks

  • RetiredNurse78 Malcolm11/7 (@RetiredNurse78) reported

    @kadjaft @TurnbullMalcolm @Murdoch_RC Did Murdoch influence government & LNP policy because NBN was a direct competitor to his satellite Foxtel network?

  • macgyverpete Sneaky Pete (@macgyverpete) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I’ve been watching a show called ‘The Americans,’ and it’s really good. However tonight when I went to get my fix, it has disappeared from the platform. Is this show now gone?

  • MarkDiStef Mark Di Stefano (@MarkDiStef) reported

    @SuperGa51746934 They currently get 100s millions to sell the HBO content to Foxtel. To launch its own service in Australia (population 26m) they'll need to sign up subscribers, which costs huge amounts of money in marketing to do so.

  • AusBigfella Aaron Matthews (@AusBigfella) reported

    God ******* damn U WWE after that please accept the all shows will be removed from my Foxtel recordings. Do you have to keep shoving that overated jackass @WWERomanReigns down our tv sets, are you going to keep him champ for another gut wrenching year. #WrestleMania 🤮🤮🤮

  • Veritas_KW Veritas on KW (@Veritas_KW) reported

    The big question right now. If (theoretically), UFC followed WWE into a standalone channel on Foxtel (if the UFC/WWE merger rumors are true), instead of charging AUD$60 per PPV, what would be the future for Foxtel-owned PPV service Main Event?

  • sjlangs Sarah 🏳️‍🌈 (@sjlangs) reported

    @binge_help Are you going to add 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days Season 5 to your catalogs? I had to cancel my foxtel and I was just about finished with the series so bit sad I cant find it on binge atm :( only Season 3 & 4 atm

  • ernieoz Gavin (@ernieoz) reported

    @Gixabaz @motomatters Foxtel are poor at promoting bike racing.

  • Nick56412479 Nick (@Nick56412479) reported

    @Guts2231 Worst app ever. No surprise, it's a Foxtel product

  • JamesCridland James Cridland @james@bne.social (@JamesCridland) reported

    @TheDanBarrett As a customer - disappointingly, Foxtel has lured away the big guns (National Geographic, CNN) with exclusive deals. It leaves few decent channels available for Fetch - the BBC channels being the saving grace. The new UI has slowed the box down to a crawl, too.

  • alaincrow Alain Crow (@alaincrow) reported

    @TheDanBarrett Foxtel Binge may as well close down if that happens

  • lwrncwds Lawrence (@lwrncwds) reported

    @_Ben_Wallace @FOXTEL_Help Hey Ben, has your issue been resolved? I’m also unable to play any content on the Foxtel app. It keeps telling me I need to be connected to the internet, which I am..

  • GofakYousef BigRed (@GofakYousef) reported

    @senatorbabet So cancel Foxtel??

  • catelizlouise CattyEllieLou aka @CattyEllieLou@aus.social (@catelizlouise) reported

    @PhilHazell1 @JRWeaver55 Sadly, my father is one of them. I don't think he'd ever seek help as he thinks we're the ones who need help. *** News totalled his brain. (Grr Foxtel)

  • HJeffro Jeff Harris (@HJeffro) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help Why is there advertising at the beginning of streamed shows? Streamed 2 shows this evening and there were 1 or 2 ads before the show streamed, doesn't seem right for a paid service.

  • michaeldarren79 Mike M (@michaeldarren79) reported

    And **** you for disabling screenshots @kayosports @Foxtel
