-
Trent Steel (@TAStanton2323) reported@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.
-
TommaHawk79 Games (@TH79Games) reported@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😕
-
Fellidd Paddmaye (@AlanBailey2) reported@Foxtel can someone explain to me why I can stream ANY movie on ANY streaming service no issues. I can play MMO's at 60fps, no issues. But, I cannot watch a simple game of NRL without you guys killing my viewing pleasure with 2 minutes of game time, and 5 minutes of buffering?
-
Angry E𝕏ile 🇺🇦 (@AngryExile) reported@Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

Liz 🐨🦈 (@clarkshollanov) reportedGreat now I have to pay for Foxtel again. This **** ain’t cheap.
-
Franky Kugisaki (@FrankyKugisaki) reported@krzyasf4u @Vin_cent00 Nah just never watched this. I was a Ben 10 kid back in the day plus only my Grandma had Foxtel so I had no access to this show
-
side quest king (@babydoll25pc) reported@hudsonwphotos Nooo, not Foxtel - wtf! brb checking out how much im going to have to pay
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@simmos83 @jarrodwalsh Criticising ****** behaviour from Foxtel? And you want to try and pull out club v club ****? The fans of the Hard-done-bys are a ******* weird lot.
-
Garry (@garry1951b) reported@Quartermain10 @7AFL Just as bad on @Foxtel / Kayo.
-
Mr_Ives (@Mr_Ives_) reported@BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.
-
AlexanderV (@PedlarFan) reported@fa37376 Do you understand how much money Qatar and the UAE have? Saudi Arabia have a minority stake in DAZN who bought Foxtel which plays Sydney games on it. They can’t take it back, but they could have easily renewed the sponsorship, instead they turned down the money.
-
Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported@Ryandally08 Perhaps 7,9,10 and SBS and WIN too who all get a subsidy and tax breaks to broadcast. I mean even Foxtel got $30 mill perhaps shut them down too. Radio….well that’s ****. Shut them down as well.
-
Bruno pringle (@jason07218354) reported@FOXNRL The whole game of rugby league is **** now , referee's ruining games and 2 teams that can win the comp , too predictable, get rid of foxtel / kayo it's a joke
-
Camorae5196 (@camorae5196) reported@realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho
-
Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
-
Joe Blow (@JoeBlowthoughts) reported@a_eugol @DanGinnane is a moron. Why do you even listen to him? Doesn't even know the rules. Sucks up to everyone at Foxtel! Goodbyyyyeeeee
-
🤠 Racin' Joe 🏎️ ⚫🔴⚫ (@Twittter_Suks) reportedJust one replay so far on Foxtel. Good. Too bad there have been 100's of replays of Elijah Hollands. Not all injuries are visible.
-
Mei-Ling Day (@Meilingday) reported@JFalleiro Jeepers. I try to cancel my foxtel and I have the retention department sending me emails, and them giving me deals I don’t want over the phone! I can’t escape them! I feel sad hearing all this. I genuinely do.
-
Morsey (@WCE92940618) reportedLet’s be honest @7afl coverage is so much better than @FOXFOOTY this year All they need now is a couple Saturday games and i would cancel @Foxtel
-
curativequest (@ScarcityStudent) reported@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.
-
SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported@gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.
-
Dale in Perth 🔴⚪⚫ (@DaleTho45919445) reported@kayosports / @Foxtel why can’t we hear the crowd with your commentary? It sounds like you’re not even there!! Absolutely terrible!! It’s ANZAC Day and we’re stuck with inferior products
-
Greg1956 (@Greg19562) reported@Ryandally08 I want sky news detached from foxtel dog ****!
-
My opinon doesn’t have to be yours! (@dumbchump24) reported@NRL tell foxtel to turn up commentator mic and down crowd one plz
-
John (@jt_melb) reportedHow the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback
-
my3epaulets (@my3epaulets) reportedDamn kinda need The Twelve season 4.. @Foxtel pls
-
Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported@Ausbobsmit Knifing Tony Baloney was a fine public service. You forget Tony brought us world slowest copper wire internet to save Rupert Murdoch’s satellite Foxtel crap from being dumped in the bin. The man in the photo had to sell the dog to us. Not me - I was one of first fibre connected.
-
jaimee ⁸ ¹ ⭑ (@E8M1AJ) reportedi did a mock order on the foxtel website to see how much it would be to potentially get one. ever since i’ve had them calling me 5-7 times a day 😭 one way to lose a potential customer!
-
