Mike David (@illhp_mike) reported@thebigjohnnyd @MercJestr I had recorded something on my Foxtel box, came back to watch it and it wouldn't play it because they no longer had the rights to it. FFS not asking you to keep streaming it, but let me watch what's recorded. This never happened back in the olden days when I recorded to a VCR

Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedYo Foxtel, every bloody time android updates you're way behind. Why am I paying a bill for a service I'm not receiving? I'm even on your beta test and you're still slow. I'm relying on your app on holiday ATM and nothing! #freebills @FOXTEL_Help
-
GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social (@BjWittwer) reported@xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires
-
bndt (@banditkayfabe) reported@c0op111 I just don’t want channels though I am using Kayo a streaming service. If I wanted Foxtel Now I would’ve gotten that. I just don’t understand because all they have to do is flick a switch. Doesn’t cost them anything
-
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.
-
mªdcªtjo (stay) 2.0 (metres away from me) (@madcatjo2point0) reported@MikeCarlton01 I watched a few episodes of "The Mansion" (an ABYSMAL sketch comedy show he co-hosted on Foxtel) & as such have always been "triggered" by him. I thought it was me, but nah he sucks. Grace Tame is a deadset legend.
-
Piewarmer (@poundtown777) reported@FOXFOOTY @Foxtel what the hell is going on??? Why am I watching 2 channels of footy in INDIAN???? Sort this crap out #afldogstigers
-
Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported@GregDavis006 Imagine the poor ***** who don't have Foxtel and have to watch channel 9 for all their footie all year! I'd just stop.
-
S B (@Conigman) reported@footyindustryAU Can i ask a stupid question? Why did Dazn need to buy Foxtel? Why couldnt they just save there cash and bid for the rights of the NRL, AFL when it comes up etc? I mean Foxtel (Fox Sports) are worth nothing without the rights in the first place?
-
H Met Louis 📚🎧🇦🇺 (@Sokolovonfire) reported**** THIS **** I DONT HAVE FOXTEL @HBO WHY DIDNT YOU GET THE RIGHTS FOR AUSTRALIA
-
John Money (Real name on ID) (@DrJMoneyPHD) reported@ItsPoletti foxtel chose 2 clubs that should have never have been picked before dumping the league & now one of them is statement fc
-
Sandy Lanceley (@sandylanceley) reported@Tuxy81 @Raiders_24Sep89 You’re both kinda correct - if no FTA network bids, then the rights can go exclusively to Pay TV - but in this instance we know a FTA network has made a bid, so Foxtel/DAZN are compelled to find a FTA partner
-
Corey Wright (Mr. CW) (@RealCOZZASAIDSO) reported@GrumpyPigeon @7plus Glad I recorded on Foxtel to watch properly. I thought it was a Copyright issue with the Doctor Who stuff. It actually has both audio/video messed up. Hopefully is fixed soon to watch properly.

a ʕ•͈ⱉ•͈ʔ (@haebae69) reportedand i need to find out how im gonna watch it cause i am not paying like 60 bucks a month for foxtel **** that😭😭
-
Mr Black (@_OutInTheBlack_) reportedbroadcast on foxtel is down the hindi channel's working though 🙄 #AFLDogsTigers

Milram 361 aka Nigerian Prince (@Milram361) reported@PieNorthern I know I pay overs for Foxtel but we have very few, aka zero problems watching sport. FWIIW
-
.H.Ɔ.ꟼ (@IWasBornIn1975) reported@Benjahhhmin @ReadingThePlay I had nothing but buffering issues with Kayo to the point where I thought "**** it, I'm paying for it anyway so.....I got Foxtel. Sometimes I think that's the whole point of Kayo's ********* all-round service.....get their customers frustrated enough to go pay for Foxtel.....
-
James Jones (@JamesyJones) reported@OMGTheMess Coalition also handed out $40m to Foxtel. Complete and utter scam. Cash for comment each and every night. There was no tender, no conditions and no reporting. All to a subscription service that cheerleads them every night. But the Right don’t dare bring that up.
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reportedWent to watch the recorded 7 news on IQ. Not there. Then realised all the other programs that should have recorded aren't there either. Has anyone else had that problem with Foxtel?
-
larissa ೀ (@hudconaddict) reported**** my chungus life foxtel of all things is wild 😭
-
Leigh (@hinterland33) reported@sportandracing @AussieNinerGuy @footyindustryAU Um Yes AFL broadcast agreement with the Seven Network & Foxtel includes built-in annual indexation Compound Growth: The contract features an in-built indexation rate, which represents a compound annual growth rate of about 3.6% for the rights fees over the life of the agreement
-
Alex Carter (@abbacarter) reportedHas PVL sent instructions to Annesley to ensure the Broncos are still in the comp? Part of the rights deal with DZN / Foxtel or what? Downright embarrassing officiating. Off night from Cleary though, his kicking game was poor #NRLPanthersBroncos #PanthersvBroncos
-
T Highgate (@THighgate11) reported@LeagueScenePod NRL won’t go for this. V’landys has said numorous times that he wants $4 billion for 5 years. This offer is $4 billion for 7 years which is worst than what the current AFL deal is. Foxtel needs this deal more than the NRL at this stage.
-
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.
-
Julie Burgess (@julieburgess623) reported@Telstra for 5 days now we have been unable to watch Foxtel as our internet speed is 4.49 as per their consultant. We have contacted NBN who told us to contact Telstra. The person there said the problem is our modem which it is not. We need a solution please Telstra.

DJ Jazzy Not Jeff (@DJ_Jazzy_JD) reported@golfon5 @AFL It was fine on Ch7. Hust a foxtel issue.

NRLBOSS (@1WeakGuttedDog) reported@banditkayfabe WWF RAW was on Fox Sports 1 on Foxtel at 8.30pm on a Tuesday night for us. Always a few hours late but I was glued every week for about 5-6 years solid without fail.

Dale Johnson (@dazza0701) reported@Collin_G_Wood Surprised they never showed a reply of this at all on foxtel not one person even mentioned it. I thought for sure it was a point
