-
Matlock (@Matlock47825386) reported@footyindustryAU Foxtel price is at its absolute limit - can’t be jacked. If they didn’t get NRL it was an insta cancel. Now they have so few of the sports it’s no longer a one stop shop it’s a different equation.
-
PellaPeptides (@pellapeptides) reported@RalphyHeraldSun Channel 7 is blurry crap. Hate Grand Final day when Foxtel can't telecast the game in 4k Ultra.
-
alunsays (@alunsays) reported@leighjones0212 @Foxtel If you’re a CBA customer you can get Binge and Kayo for $17 a month. Ditch Foxtel.
-
Biscuitman (@biscuitman007) reported@Hugh_96 @balumbah I agree, as there's no accountability in RA. You can fail and fail again, and no transparency. My view is that 3 years after the RWC, when the money runs out, Foxtel will buy rugby for peanuts. Only then will it get fixed.

I’m an 8️⃣1️⃣🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁 (@geranium555) reported@AmeliaBee7 @xskinn It used to fill me with anxiety and annoyance when I had the displeasure of having sky free on Foxtel. And seeing this idiot sitting there like a pompous buffoon. Thank Christ they removed free Sky News.
-
Leigh (@hinterland33) reported@sportandracing @AussieNinerGuy @footyindustryAU Um Yes AFL broadcast agreement with the Seven Network & Foxtel includes built-in annual indexation Compound Growth: The contract features an in-built indexation rate, which represents a compound annual growth rate of about 3.6% for the rights fees over the life of the agreement
-
Esgee (@StassyGee) reported@PhilGould15 Sir, could we please look at starting our own channel to watch just our own games? I'm tired of giving those sour ***** at Fox my money. After listening to Voss and whatever the other has been's name is, I'm ready to cancel Foxtel after 20 yrs.
-
TheTopMostDog 🇦🇺🐕🦺🏕️🎣🔫🪓🥩 (@TheTopMostDog) reported@Foxtel Mum is still paying $90/mo for this ****. I've almost convinced her to let it go. The value just isn't there anymore since competition ramped up. She could pay for half a dozen streaming platforms for that much. Unless you change, you'll die along with your last subscribers.
-
the cat (@boogiecat11) reported@brentread_7 Shut up you *** clown. You and Crawley never have anything positive to say in the media. It is a criminal act that Foxtel and kayo make people pay money to see shows with you 2 idiots on there
-
Jon Striker (@compaqfw22) reported@daveburke82 @SteveMascord I agree in a perfect world - but professional sport was changing in the late-90s and as great as a “1994 Winfield Cup with Foxtel showing the non-Ch9/2 games” would have been, it just would have left someone else to come in and offer a resolution
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels My idea down the track is Saturday 930 nrl game (good for Perth) feeding directly into an earlier super league game. That would get them decent coin. Like when they go to 11 or 12 games. They can afford Foxtel so much more value down the track, afl can’t.
-
Ian Clarke (@ianclarkeAU) reported@GusLefty @AJG71 @karlstefanovic QED. This ALP fool doesn’t know Foxtel rolled out and paid for a cable network for far less $/ customer than the NBN. Foxtel: ~$800–$1,100 per premise. NBN: $2,000–$2,750+ per premise.
-
Kieran Bridge (@KieranBridge5) reported@sculls_6 Worst thing it did was ever leave Foxtel. Went backwards 10 years after that
-
TWHM (@TWHM4) reported@KateSchroe51943 I found it on HBO Max on Foxtel. First thing I'd watched on HBO Max. Mainly keep Foxtel for the football, and the odd older movie. Most of it's trash. Costs a bomb, not even close to a value proposition. FTA's also garbage. Refuse to pay streamers.
-
Dingus wingus (@drewwharton) reported@catgirlprostate I don't think TV in Australia is that bad but the British channel that my mum watches on Foxtel is especially bad.
-
Ramdas Raymond (@chewie1238) reportedFoxtel and Prime Thumbs Down Every Time.
-
Matt McDermott (@MattMcDermott74) reported@vanOnselenP I wasn't poking fun at you just using a factual example . If this game was on Foxtel / ABC its a non issue .
-
Bill Blakeney 🇦🇺 (@wablakeney) reported@Foxtel camera work for #AFLlionshawks is garbage!!
-
ClayChucky (@claychuckyclay) reportedGiven how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1
-
Craig The Speculator (@craigspeculator) reportedsad example of corporate greed - ring @foxtel to cancel my mother's Foxtel as she has passed away. No offer of sympathy on her passing from the operator but he did among other formalities ask if any other family member would like continue with the contract.
-
Dariyen Jones (@DetroitLemons99) reported@Sheiknbake1313 @kanecornes @Colvick Old mate in the rugby league PVL loves tv ratings its all they have, and fair play they were able to convince foxtel and the like to pay a stupid amount of money to air 20 ppl in a stadium watching it
-
Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported@LeagueFreak Kerry Packer believed you bid the maximum you can so if you loose to anyone else - you know they will be worst off than you. Foxtel knows it will lose half their subscriptions if they lose the NRL. And that means it will go broke because they already over paid for the AFL.
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported@Optus @alexblair_1 First thing I would check is Alex on Kayo or Foxtel? Everyone complains about Kayo I constantly have issues with Foxtel through the internet continuously buffering while my download speeds are in the 80s!
-
voldovor mias (@ViaMias11) reportedthere was that competition you sign up to foxtel and buy every pay per view wwe or something you can win a trainor and placement. Shayna bazzler and fat tony won. Seboyh tourian was there give it to sol ruca they were all fighting the stupid adrian drug squad police stephanie
-
joan Reynolds (@joanReynolds52) reported@RBJRON @strangerous10 I’m with you. Haven’t bought a Murdoch rag since 1997. Never subscribed to Foxtel and, for my own sanity, never tuned into Sky. Don’t walk into a Harvey Norman shop and avoid anyone else who advertises with the Murdochracy
-
Sports Turmoil (@sixtiessongs) reported@10SportAU @alexbozmorty Getting the A League back onto Foxtel or Stan Sports would help.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels All those games where afl show multiple games on seven as one game, the Foxtel ratings would be awful. Guess we never know but I used to see some games getting 80k on Fox. On par with what a league and super rugby used to get
-
ExHullKiwi (@HullKiwi) reported@craigspeculator @Foxtel Sorry for your loss Craig. I am working through my mum’s huge pile of paper to find out what needs paying and cancelling. Worst so far is her lawyer who was incredibly rude and refused to share her will without her death certificate despite me being the executor.
-
antqld (@antqldbwog) reported@Darcy_Cosgriff @NicNegrepontis This has always been the case, make Kayo so **** and we can squeeze a few extra $$$ out of people when they sign on to foxtel.
-
Paul Corlson (@pauljc26) reportedMan @Foxtel have some utter trash shows on the service now, they want to hope they get the tv rights for the NRL again or people will leave in droves
