  • sjsmith31 Stephen Smith (@sjsmith31) reported

    @Dangerouslytal @Foxtel Foxtel are classics , so I can cancel and create a new account and get it for $69 but they can’t adjust my current price ... which is significantly more than the $69 they are offering a new customer @foxtel a business model with no clues , it defies logic , the next Blockbuster!

  • JonDorrity Jon Dorrity (@JonDorrity) reported

    @Foxtel 22 year customer here and again nothing for those on the Platinum Plans spending double that amount a Month. #notgoodenoughfoxtel

  • sjsmith31 Stephen Smith (@sjsmith31) reported

    @Foxtel So you feel ok providing a lower price to@new customer and continue to overcharge your loyal customers? Genius idea not !

  • sjsmith31 Stephen Smith (@sjsmith31) reported

    @Foxtel The only organisation that thinks it is a good idea to offer new customers a $40 a month cheaper offer than that existing loyal customers pay , answer when I called them was cancel your service and sign up as new customer ... genius ... next blockbuster

  • down7own7 downtown7 (@down7own7) reported

    .@Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help I pay over $100 a month for your service. Explain to me why I have to watch ads on on-demand content?

  • soundofsam S.A.M. (@soundofsam) reported

    Do I want to watch the Snyder cut? Eh. I wouldn't mind. Am I going to give money to Foxtel in order to do so? Hahahahahahahaha **** no. **** Foxtel.

  • PaulBee71 Paul Batters (@PaulBee71) reported

    @Foxtel The worst service, the most rubbish content, killed off some great channels years ago (including TCM) and we're paying through the nose for failed movies, repetitive dreck and nauseating crap like the Kardashians. Time to leave.

  • sjsmith31 Stephen Smith (@sjsmith31) reported

    @Foxtel Hi Foxtel, in a month where you increase my price for my package by $20 per month , you now are offering the exact package and contract length to new customers for $40 less. I am told I am best to cancel and sign up as a new customer , this is completely irrational. Pls

  • Robert6420 Robert Tunn (@Robert6420) reported

    @Foxtel **** program's and you have to have the SkyNews channel because it's part of the basic package! They got that correct it is basic, a basic Murdoch propergander BS channel spreading community disharmony for profit. Disgraceful and immoral.

  • sjsmith31 Stephen Smith (@sjsmith31) reported

    @Foxtel What a joke $40 a month less than offered to existing customers .... strategy that will help u become the next blockbuster / covid

  • SeaMist_au Gwen Clark (@SeaMist_au) reported

    @Foxtel So easy not to choose Foxtel. Crazily overpriced options to get the stuff you actually want. Plus the NBN was nerfed to support Rupert Murdock. Just say no.

  • Bowragak Marc Gill (@Bowragak) reported

    @Foxtel Hey Murdoch... shove fox up your crabby old arse... and while you're at it.. get ******** out of my country you US pig

  • sir_richard Richard (@sir_richard) reported

    @Foxtel incredibly expensive - uncompetitive price given Netflix etc You could have every subscription service there is for less than this per month. Your business model is outdated, and the value no longer there unfortunately.

  • ASXstpt Paul Doggett (@ASXstpt) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help You offered me an IQ4 box for FREE. But now you've charged me $185 for the box & a connection fee. Talk about fast tracking customer disgust and walk outs. Disgraceful

  • clint100981 Clinton Perry (@clint100981) reported

    @Foxtel This is beyond delusional pricing @Trav_Roebuck! I could get every single streaming service and get change for that much.

  • Gary41938427 poppydad (@Gary41938427) reported

    @CharlesSzulc It's the slimy entitled & sleazy salesmanship that bonds Murdoch & Morrison together, they are the same animal & have the same degree of humanity Thx for financing, oh GIVING Millions $ to poor Murdoch's foxtel poor poor Murdoch, I c where loyalties join together

  • D3V1L5ADVOC8 Devils Advocate (@D3V1L5ADVOC8) reported

    @Foxtel I still remember the frantic voice of the foxtel salesman trying to hold onto my business when I rang to cancel my subscription to foxtel many years ago. I could only get satellite internet where I lived, which was like dial up, but when I moved it was the first thing I did.

  • bartboy34 Brenton G (@bartboy34) reported

    Hey @FOXTEL_Help Is your apps and website down ? I cant get access to any streaming at all. Not on my mac or thru my iphone app. In Melb

  • Wseries Wseries (@Wseries) reported from Sydney, State of New South Wales

    Wow so I was just able to cancel my @Foxtel subscription this time around without too much hassle. I was paying $50/pm and would’ve kept it had I been able to keep it at that price but they wouldn’t budge. Anyhoo I won’t miss it.

  • SteveStillStand Laidback DM (@SteveStillStand) reported

    @Foxtel Foxtel is dead. A shame Rupert sold all their movie and series IPs with 21st Century Fox, but I guess that’s before they realised they’d need to fund a streaming service (Binge)-now they have to purchase all their streamed content under contract. Rupert’s loss is Disney’s gain.

  • willduck Will Duckworth (@willduck) reported

    @gps67 @Foxtel I can get my masochistic joyless fix on @OptusSport ! ;-)

  • kevinbhealey KenvinHealy (@kevinbhealey) reported

    @Foxtel Foxtel Now Essentials + Sport + Movies - $39/Month - this is why I am cancelling my service.

  • ASXstpt Paul Doggett (@ASXstpt) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help You offered me an IQ4 box for FREE. But now you've charged me $185 plus $35 self installation fee. Talk about fast tracking customer disgust and walk outs. Disgraceful.
