    @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 Sidenote i think i might be the reason foxtel now makes you sign up for every channel to get the documentary ones at all now, because i was watching that **** for like 10 hours a day for years and only paying $10/mth, it had to have been a loss for them

    @Michael94858047 Streaming services are ******* ridiculous. Prime is not the same as foxtel obviously but all the payments and then still gotta purchase **** it's ******* bullshit

    @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...

    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.

    @1116sen @SENBreakfast The issue was that foxtel lost the sync to the clock. The clock was still running on Channel 7 and so was still running for the timekeepers

    @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.

    @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 😡😡

    @ScottBornAgain I was never asked to sign a release even digitally to do tmz and that’s illegal, anyone want to help me here or am I just gonna sit here forever I have proof they used it for money making advertising ventures as I was able to screen record it off the app mind you it’s a foxtel company.

    @500Indy1911 If you have a foxtel sports in Aus you get F1TV for free. You get ads during Practice and Qualifying on Foxtel as well. I guess it just comes down to the sky feed running ad breaks.

    @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.

    @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

    @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

    @Michael94858047 I didn't even know you could still get Foxtel. Just get unlimited internet and watch YouTube. It's free in about the same quality of content you'd get from pay tv or a streaming service

    @Foxtel call customer support and box not showing channels and loading, told it will take 2 business days for someone to contact, simply not good enough

    @intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.
