Warthog (@edwarner57) reportedJust received a text from Telstra, I thought it was about today's outage but no it was a more important issue, they were having issues billing customers their Foxtel subscriptions. They will organise refunds for over charges. The important things. #telstraoutage
-
Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@timritchie It was failed PM John Howard that sold off Telstra to the tax payers that already owned it. A disgraceful act when we also needed to upgrade to the optic fibre network at the same time. The LNP / Foxtel version of the NBN was another disgraceful failure ....

Fine Cotton (@mr_finecotton) reported@Foxtel u say u provide the best entertainment & sport.... the latest series of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premiered 19 May 2026 in the USA.... It's July & youre still not screening in Aust - why am I paying $100/mth for second rate service? @HISTORY @BrandonFugal
-
Darrel Nay (@BlueLionMusings) reported@Foxtel I've been a customer for 30 years or thereabouts and I never get offered these prices - not impressed. Foxtel seems to be more and more women's sports with more and more ads - the value for a viewer has collapsed. Why am I charged almost twice what a new customer is charged ?
-
Karen Walker (@KarenWa13145181) reportedAndrew Bolt shut up I loved your show but now now I won't am cancelling my Foxtel if you are so smart what is your solution for these þerrorist I'm disappointed
-
George W. Grundy (@georgewgrundy) reportedAbsolutely outrageous - you can buy a UFC fighting subscription from @Foxtel with one click, but in order to cancel you have to phone a call centre and take over 30 minutes to get it cancelled over the phone. Absolute ripoff, what ********.
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.
-
Mr Black (@_OutInTheBlack_) reportedbroadcast on foxtel is down the hindi channel's working though 🙄 #AFLDogsTigers
-
The Steps (@mcnamara_team) reported@clarke3110 @bondiroosters Yep, Kayo is just the revamped Foxtel rip off. The AFL and NRL have let down the supporters, won’t be long until the attendance to games drops because the general lack of interest is.
-
BomberSteve (@Bombersteve) reported@ShereeJohns @jagra1525 Absolutely, hands down the worst cricket commentator I have ever heard. Can Foxtel not hear him?? Same sort of boys club selections at Foxtel as the Australian cricket team have. Name before performance.
-
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.
-
Yeezalicious (@Yeezalicious69) reported@PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy
-
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.
-
Fred 🇦🇺 (@Possum2412) reported@JonesPam7777 @OMGTheMess Kinda sorta bloody oath. I got my pay rise, I'll be paying $22k in tax plus all the other taxes and council rates and water rates and electricity. Then I pay for Foxtel and internet and mobile phone. And then have to eat. And I don't live in a city. Poor people who do.
-
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.
-
the cat (@boogiecat11) reported@LeagueScenePod Paying fans that get kayo or Foxtel shouldn’t be forced to watch grand finals and origin games on a **** free to air with commercials.
-
James Milton (@jformaldehydem) reported@mary_hail20316 @KirstiMiller30 So pirate it then. Binge and Foxtel are both Murdoch properties. **** Murdoch!

Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedHey when is the app coming for Android 17, can't log in for weeks now. Why am I paying you for no service? @Foxtel

John Davidson (@johnnyddavidson) reportedReported in The Courier-Mail today: The NRL’s plan to save Super League could be on the brink of collapse in what would be a devastating blow for the English game. The ARLC has been investigating a Super League rescue package for the past year, but it’s understood UK broadcaster Sky Sports is reluctant to come to the party with a palatable deal to satisfy the NRL’s investment strategy. There are suggestions DAZN, which now owns Foxtel, could support a Super League rescue package after former NRL CEO Andrew Abdo travelled to the UK in April for Super League buyout talks.  The Super League could be in trouble. Picture: Alex Livesey/Getty Images But V’landys says the Super League deal could hit a deadend. That would be a potentially fatal blow for an ailing English game which is drowning in debt. Super League giants St Helens lost $6.5m alone last year. “Look, we’re trying to make the figures work at the moment, but unless the figures work, we won’t do it,” he said. “We’re having trouble making the figures work, that’s the truth of it. “I don’t know what will happen. I find it very tough (to proceed with a purchase). “We need to talk further with Super League. We haven’t put a proposal into them yet. “We understand the importance of the international game, so we’re not giving up.”

Gavin Shaw (@gavshaw69) reported@Foxtel What is considered a new customer? Someone who has never had Foxtel before. Someone who has not had Foxtel directly with Foxtel for over 10 years?
-
Athena's Ivory Bracelet (@fuckthebracelet) reported@Foxtel @binge Obviously they could prove me wrong, but shows like Housewives don't work with a cast full of polished, self-aware types. This is basically why S5 was a let down. The newbies were way too conscious of how they would be portrayed.
-
Tiger Pops69 (@tigerpops69) reported@A1dynRL @ALeagueHQ Many issues with the A league, its promotion and its coverage. Love to know the audience on paramount + vs Foxtel days… quality of marquee players has gone down hill and it just lacks the spark it had when Melbourne V Sydney on multiple times packed marvel stadium back then
-
Paul Morris (@thefireman08) reported@craigspeculator @Foxtel Telstra aren’t much better. My mum had a mobile plan with them and hardly used. Something they could see from the monthly bills. In care because of dementia they insisted she would have to ring to cancel the plan.
-
Teresa (@teresa_62) reported@NRL That’s ridiculous. That means our @Foxtel will increase. There are only a few teams that are watchable. Not worth it. Will cancel .
-
Michael Grenke (@ecomtraveller) reported@FOXTEL_Help Can someone please fix the Foxtel website. It’s impossible to make a payment. Try to login- Bad request. Try to make a payment using my customer number- Bad request. Use a different browser? Bad request. How can a business this big have a website so bad?
-
Kurt (@kurtjj95) reported@centralNRL Holy ****, we are finally close to being rid of Matt Thompson. Go on Foxtel
-
David (@Wallagootwobily) reported@Foxtel Never gave me anything after being a subscriber for 13 years. You turds.
-
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.
-
Kmac (@Kjmac89) reported@BigdogGC77 @gilby_gillard @kayosports When you say losing customers? Are people moving over to Foxtel? Or how else do you watch sport? Genuinely curious, I’ve got Foxtel so never had Kayo, seems like a terrible service
-
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
