    @BingIsBackBaby @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help I’ll try that. It’s hard because the product website says one thing and their staff say another. But yes I’ll call next week and eventually I’ll get it sorted. But yeah, horrible experience every time I have to adjust anything. Terrible call center except for the Australian one.

    @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.

    @AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot

    @FIAWEC @beINSPORTSASIA thatd be right Foxtel ditched its BEIN sports channel partnership a few years back now i gotta shell out for them on top of everything life sucks being a poor schmuck on DSP😕

    @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

    @kayosports @Foxtel tv director has to lose his job after this performance. This might be the worst major sporting event coverage I’ve ever seen #AFLDonsPies

    @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.

    @cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.

    @JOSH______NZ @skysportnz Did the exact same here with Foxtel, it’s a ****** joke…. Then he got blocked and Croftey goes “I didn’t think it was all that bad to be honest!” They barely acknowledge him at all, it’s farcical.

    @lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.

    @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.

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    @purplepingers The hole for the Foxtel cable was likely drilled through the channel in the roof iron so water drips down when it rains. Happened with my satellite internet, 30 mins after installers left there was a downpour and a literal torrent of water poured out the wall plate into the modem

    @MikeCarlton01 Well the Israelis having a problem Bibi promised Don he gets Gaza they get the West Bank But they need the USA to take the hard hits for them. So now it storming the beaches as a ex foxtel sports commentator decided to throw the Geneva Convention in the bin as to restrictive.
