    That would be f**king right, just as the race is almost about to start this damn storm is hitting and the Foxtel signal keeps dropping out because of all this heavy rain 🌩🌧🤦

  • pjjglb phillip jones (@pjjglb) reported

    suffered if the Foxtel Now Service or content within it is not available or the content within the Foxtel Now Service is incorrect, incomplete or not up-to-date. You must make your own assessment of it and rely on it wholly at your own risk.

  • grantpallant Grant Pallant (@grantpallant) reported from Adelaide, State of South Australia

    Watching @FollowWAU on Foxtel for year 2020 two things I noticed how many people are at the 500 and the freeloader @marshall_steven soaking up the free **** what a oxygen robber @NickPercat #missthe500

  • millionsofmyles Myles Harris (@millionsofmyles) reported

    After dropping Foxtel for Fetch (just to watch a single sport, for less money, thanks NHL & ESPN rights) Ive come to the conclusion that channel broadcast TV sucks. It's like having to chose from nothing that you want, but what you do want is on in a few hours.

  • pjjglb phillip jones (@pjjglb) reported

    @Foxtel have been taking two payments from me for the one service When I questioned them This is what they said I understand. However, Foxtel does not undertake to keep the Foxtel Now Service up-to-date and is not liable to you or any other person for any loss or disappointment

  • kts350 Wayno (@kts350) reported

  • CosmoKramer1992 Leigh (@CosmoKramer1992) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help hello, I’m having an issue watching Foxtel on my Mac (safari). Streaming it is fine, but once I click on “enter fullscreen” or “CC” or even “play/pause”, it becomes unresponsive and the screen goes to black, but still has audio. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

  • The_X_President skullsup (@The_X_President) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Nah that's creepy dude. Just fix it. And stop being creepy ay.

  • tonymdolan TMD (@tonymdolan) reported

    @sallyrugg Cancel your foxtel / Newscorp subscriptions. Rupert creates culture wars to get people angry. Anger gets eyeballs on his platforms. The more eyeballs the more advertising dollars he gets. Rupert hates democracy but loves dollars.

    Power is back! Returned at 11:45PM - at least, that's what my watch said when I woke up, having gone to bed early. Wishing everyone else in VIC quickly restored power. #Melbourne Missed the #ShadowsFX final (which was at 8:30PM). Will need my mum's Foxtel login to watch online.

  • Reality_Pixel M🕯️cr💧ft ....🧠....🐒....🚶 (@Reality_Pixel) reported
