FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
John Money (Real name on ID) (@DrJMoneyPHD) reported@ItsPoletti foxtel chose 2 clubs that should have never have been picked before dumping the league & now one of them is statement fc
-
Jonathan Wilson (@jfwfreo) reported@TV_Blackbox The only losers would be DAZN (who own Foxtel and Kayo) and Nine (who own Stan) although if Nine keeps FTA rights it wouldn't be quite so bad for them.
-
Scott Patten (@Mehyouthink) reported@footyindustryAU I reckon stays at kayo/foxtel. Look what happened to A-League and Rugby when they left. You never see them on pub tvs anymore. I mean the deal for that might not be worth it but for eyes on product?
-
tsell (@TsellSellersfam) reported@BillWiIdin I was on the phone to a foxtel employee who put me on hold 3 times to go and check her son who had broken her leg. At least she was honest about it but yeah a 15min phone call ended up taking 45mins. Not productive at all.
-
Brett Cox (@b_dog_78) reported@NicNegrepontis Foxtel is borderline unwatchable. Signal dropping in and out. There is no rain and not a breath of wind outside, so the “poor weather” excuse is not valid. Just a poor service all round.
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help And if you ring up you get someone from overseas who has no idea, offers you nothing and you get nowhere. If only there was another pay service to give them competition.
-
Jackie Chan (@JackieChan87805) reported@LeagueFreak If they lose the rights they're finished . the 4 billion they paid for foxtel sports next to worthless when more then half their subscribers move to the streaming service that has the NRL But... Stan & Paramount are serious in taking DAZN out of the Australian market
-
RatFinky (@de32344) reportedSurprised Channel 7 didn’t choose to show Foxtel broadcast for an AFL milestone; Pendlebury breaking AFL games record. Not a Collingwood fan/supporter, but there are loyal Collingwood fans/supporters who only have access to Free to Air. Stupid move as usual from Channel 7. 🙄😒
-
mªdcªtjo (stay) 2.0 (metres away from me) (@madcatjo2point0) reported@MikeCarlton01 I watched a few episodes of "The Mansion" (an ABYSMAL sketch comedy show he co-hosted on Foxtel) & as such have always been "triggered" by him. I thought it was me, but nah he sucks. Grace Tame is a deadset legend.
-
Shaun ⚽️ (@InTheMixer) reportedThe WU are unlikely coming back and Reddit Rumours that Macarthur are handing back their licence. Literally every Code Football article is negative. I hope David Gallop never gets a job again and that Foxtel/Kayo is liquidated and offshored by DAZN. #BestLeagueInTheWorld
-
Adrian Sal (@adriansal80) reported@SC___Scout Have never and will never get kayo. I've had Foxtel since day one. Never one issue.
-
Khealy (@kevinbhealey) reported@onepercentas I have never watched less games, and almost nothing of the AFL tv shows than I ever have before. Will be cancelling my Foxtel and not going again this year.
-
Steven Hing (@eskimo2708) reported@Tuxy81 Same as foxtel. Just tried to cancel
-
Bruce Goosnargh. 🌳 (@camelboy33) reported@Tuxy81 I pay $29 a month for Foxtel Basic and Sports on the app. No streaming issues. Ever.
-
Judy Bourke (@judithbourke) reported@benonwine I agree it’s bloody awful got Foxtel and your paying for repeats Sports channel maybe different
-
squash (@o7squash) reportedhow ******** is foxtel still in business
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@THECROWS_SHED @jarrodwalsh You drag up a club vs club **** in a post that criticising Foxtel?
-
Daniel james Vogel (@djv0073) reportedDon't pay for any applications or subscriptions. Cancel netflix foxtel etc all streaming platforms we own the phone companies. Delete bank account & open a new one. Information will be readily available at the touch of a finger. You can i read any encyclopaedia or text book Free.
-
Anna (@spannaforce) reportedIs there a problem with @FOXTEL_Help ? I keep getting playback error message
-
GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social (@BjWittwer) reported@xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires

Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job. **** you #Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?
-
a ʕ•͈ⱉ•͈ʔ (@haebae69) reportedand i need to find out how im gonna watch it cause i am not paying like 60 bucks a month for foxtel **** that😭😭
-
Angry E𝕏ile 🇺🇦 (@AngryExile) reported@Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

𝕹𝖔𝕯𝖚𝖓𝖓𝖞𝕻𝖆𝖕𝖊𝖗 🧻 (@blankandclear) reported@Cryptozoologis7 @SCWhisperer Slater and Smith are as bad as the two you mentioned. Thank goodness for Foxtel. Channel 9 suck!

-
Andrew (@amea05) reported@Foxtel wtf is going on... Ads in the middle of the Hawks GCS game and now no vision?
-
Logical ⚽️ 🍺🦘 (@BinManIan) reported@simonhill1894 @AnthonyPHoran @Gatty54 Paramount Plus have been pretty good for the A-League... with the exception of not being in pubs (which continues to be a massive problem). I did some analysis the other day and P+ have more subscribers now than Foxtel had when the A-League had its TV audience peak in 2012-13
-
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.
