    @EverythingBoxi2 @BOXINGnBBQ Advised by Spencer brown and mick Francis. Sold down the river for a few quid. Poor Jai. Just needed to take the usyk route. Get on foxtel. Fight, CBS, Havk and maybe Yarde. He’s a star. He’s taken the short route and sold out

    @Foxtel Sounds like a great offer. Shame that you are charging your long time customers $156 after you have just increased our service. How about giving your long time customers a discount instead of increasing the price 😡😡

    @DriversSeatShow Great news. We can't go back to fta coverage. That was ****. However, @F1 need to ask Foxtel why the commentary on their 4K coverage doesn't match what we're seeing. They're taking F1 4K coverag directly and mixing it with Sky Sports commentary instead of F1 commentary.

    @onepercentas @Jonesracing82 Constantly jittering. Ridiculous to suggest Internet is the issue. Have no issue streaming live EPL or even live sport on Foxtel app. Yet Kayo constantly jitters and stutters.

    @JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    @LolCowBasement @LolCowBasement You could say Techy I used a piece of myself to make you the ultimate cable box. Yes it picks up FOXTEL. It aims for anything but anything FOX or CBS NETWORK related is a given. You worked for CBS over the Castle hill slide so you left a vocal fingerprint

    SeverusVape~ (@SonicTulane) reported

    @lilymatildamary @sumwheresmiling If you have 1 or 2 other streaming platforms then the movie options on Foxtel are almost irrelevant. I’ve personally never had a problem with kayo but I access it through an Apple TV box. Most apps that you access direct through a smart tv are far less stable

    @Foxtel you would reward my loyalty by cutting my subscription by half and rewarding me by cutting the price for me What a joke #cancel

    I 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.

  • 333pringles
    jaimie (@333pringles) reported

    No extension to the F1TV alternate commentary from last season so we're are stuck with the biased and generally poor Sky Sports coverage, and the only way to access the extra cameras/data on F1TV is through a foxtel box making them almost pointless. Awesome!! /s

    @gothedees36 @cmkusher @kayosports Hasn’t Foxtel shutdown the cable service, ie only new internet connections?

    I watch almost zero free-to-air tv these days, but had to watch 9 NRL tonight bc my Foxtel was down. It’s almost unwatchable compared to Foxtel. The call was good enough, but the commentary was mind numbing. Despite the pedigree of those doing it. Surprisingly bad!

    How the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback

    @onepercentas Was told by @Foxtel employee, when i wanted to go to @kayosports , that it would be a stupid idea for 2 reasons 1)they can reduce my bill by 50% just coz I threatened to leave 2)kayo is an inferior product,prone to drama, owned by foxtel to "appease the tightarses" end quote.

    @AUSFUTNews Agree. It does start at broadcasting and awareness. I have to make such an effort to find out when victory is playing. And on Paramount plus which is dog ****. Get it back on Foxtel / Kayo with rest of sports of even Stan.

  • RationalMan74
    RationalMan74 (@RationalMan74) reported

    @onepercentas Why does it even exist? Why do Foxtel not simply offer a sports only package? Why does it seem to run off different tech to the Foxtel app which has zero issues?

    @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 😭

    @SulloReport also kayo as a service is no longer worth $40/mth or whatever it is now 😭 terrible reliability, with no support for F1 TV features unless you pay Murdoch even more money through Foxtel, and graphical issues half the time...

    @CurttiMagurtti Was never a Disney channel person we watched Cartoon network and Boomerang when we had Foxtel.
