    @Murdoch_RC Why waste your money on Foxtel’s rubbish news service! Get a better deal on FETCH TV!

  • MGRANT65 Malcolm Grant (@MGRANT65) reported

    @mjrowland68 Gee it's almost like the Federal Communications Minister axed the requirement for all Free To Air stations to broadcast a percentage of local & children's content It's almost like they did that at the behest of the network owners & Foxtel

  • andrewjaybrown Andrew Brown (@andrewjaybrown) reported

    @shannon64 @Lilseb93 Yep go for Foxtel. Binge has some terrible bitrate going on.

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    If some movies stay on rental forever over Foxtel some customers will never purchase those movies as they don’t wish to watch older movies on rental. I only purchase movies on rental over Foxtel if it’s a movie I really really want to see regardless

  • PersepPrincess Voodoo Kitty (@PersepPrincess) reported

    @TheKennyDevine Shes actually horrible. I accidentally came across her on TV the other night when looking through channels on foxtel, I watched intrigued for about 30 secs, the woman is a vile and speak utter rubbish.

  • TimeCertainRace TimeCertainClock (@TimeCertainRace) reported

    @RyanWalkinshaw kayo and stan and netflix dont keep stuff long term ur lucky if its there after afew months.and sometimes its a edited down version not the full thing. foxtel hard drive is only so big. but full bathurst dvds would sell i no afew are unhappy that they stopped them after 2015

  • benjiwootto Ben (@benjiwootto) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help hi there, I will be mid way through watching something on my Foxtel now box and it will randomly shut down itself, then turn back on. This had only started happening within the last few weeks. You pay a lot for fox for it to not work properly.

  • inerudite_words inerudite (@inerudite_words) reported

    @MrKRudd I think it's time for Australians to cancel their Foxtel subscriptions. Streaming services are better value anyway.

  • Rod_Hagen Rod_Hagen (@Rod_Hagen) reported

    @NigelStobbs She is on Binge, by the way, which she says, though owned by Foxtel, is cheaper. The show is just the same as it’s predecessor, she says, which means equally bad.

  • _MissValX MISS VAL (@_MissValX) reported

    I know I haven’t shut up about #RHOMelbourne getting cancelled, I refuse to believe FOXTEL would cancel over a floppy season. There’s nothing stopping @peacockTV picking this beloved franchise from overseas up. It’s a shame to say goodbye.

  • damegus Damegus (@damegus) reported

    @MeckeringBoy Also coincidental that Newscorp change their tune about ALP fiber and LNP fiber to node once they got a streaming service up and running. They hammered the crap out of the original plan in every outlet, mainly because it would of affected Foxtel's bottom line.

  • Dangerman_2 Col Smith (@Dangerman_2) reported

    @PSyvret @Skynewsaust is the best excuse to cancel your @Foxtel subscription and move to streaming services. No one should be subsidising the braying jackasses on #SkyAfterDark.

  • stumatt StuMatt (@stumatt) reported

    @FOXFOOTY @Foxtel @kayosports Didn't hear Gerard saying 'poor Adelaide' when Danger wanted to return home??

  • davmich19 David Carlino (@davmich19) reported

    @BeauBremner @rtralphy Problem is Kayo is wholly owned by Foxtel

  • BBBubby77 No Body (@BBBubby77) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @LNPvoterfail @DaveNoonanCFMEU I mean WHY TF do we have to put up with this money grubbing SH!T??? Everybody should CANCEL their Foxtel subscription ASAP!!

  • PrinceJayHitch 𝕾𝖆𝖎𝖓𝖙 𝕵𝖆𝖞 ❤️‍🔥💀 (@PrinceJayHitch) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Why is the @FOXTEL_Help app so crap? Literally freezes every ten minutes 💀

  • AdamNBednarczyk Adam Bednarczyk (@AdamNBednarczyk) reported

    @AnneComics We may not have HBO Max over here (unless that's those that uses VPN) but there's an Australian counterpart known as Binge that's owned by Foxtel, I wouldn't touch it since I have a bad history with Foxtel.

  • KandyDathrush Kandy DaThrush (@KandyDathrush) reported

    @orange_equinox I need to sit down and watch it.i just find that i have to keep skipping early episodes because cartoon network loved to play the same episodes over and over beck when we had Foxtel.

  • MyFirstCousin 💧Dead Parrot Society (@MyFirstCousin) reported

    Who ******** does Lachlan Murdoch think he is in threatening to sue ******? The only reason Foxtel is not being sued is because nobody takes it seriously as it is more like a comedy skit show just like Sky News in Australia.

  • BrendaAnneP About Damn Time (@BrendaAnneP) reported

    @Hey @FOXTEL_Help I cannot get closed captions on Murder in Paradise. Other programs-ok. Help?

  • stickers_bown Shane Bown (@stickers_bown) reported

    @Lesbo37 @rtralphy @davmich19 Yes I do! It’s much cheaper having kayo and binge! My point in moving wasn’t about whoever owns Foxtel but more pissed that Foxtel treat their current customers *********. I love footy too much to not get kayo

  • tylerrozwell13 Ty (@tylerrozwell13) reported

    Foxtel CEO apologizes for being a dich to Emilia Clarke! Sailor Moon 'American version' footage found? Rockstar suing original GTA developer over some stupid ****! Project Cars 1 & 2 will soon be delisted? A 2nd season of Sandman may be too expensive too happen? #SaveSandman

  • FarukErol92 Faruk Erol (@FarukErol92) reported

    @rtralphy Foxtel went to **** when they lost the EPL

  • timrosen35 Tim Rosen (@timrosen35) reported

    @FOXFOOTY @Foxtel @kayosports Reckon he’s probably worth whatever anyone can afford to pay him without compromising their list… Also, genuine match winner. Those don’t grow on trees. Would have him at St.Kilda in a heartbeat! It demonstrates a horrible lack of footy knowledge thinking no to Rankine.

  • JohnVilnis John Vilnis (@JohnVilnis) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Hey help guys at Foxtel, anyone know why the channel 113 is being corrupted? Every other channel on my plan is fine, except for channel 113. Annoying.

  • ZenPeace 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 zen 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@ZenPeace) reported

    @pete_rostow @PepperJelly Best way to protest this, is to cancel any Foxtel subscriptions you may have.

  • peter75492330 Peter George (@peter75492330) reported

    @FOXFOOTY @Foxtel @kayosports Poor Robbo, so broken from this, I feel for him 😢. First line ‘2 years ago he was playing under 18 Football’ I suppose 4 is the same as 2 isn’t it 🤔

  • Ian__P Ian (@Ian__P) reported

    Oh, is @binge part of @Foxtel? That's one streaming service I will be avoiding. Not going to give any money to Murdoch. #mediawatch

  • TimKofCanberra Tim Kelly (@TimKofCanberra) reported

    @jameswhelan42 Foxtel without the dish, set top box and commitment. I'm like "do I want ANOTHER streaming service?", but at the cost of a movie ticket for a month to see whether I want to be abused by the makers of GoT again its a casual shekel to toss in the hat.
