@ESPNAusNZ Good of you to finally acknowledge it, but it doesn’t help nor provide a solution for the many thousands of us with @Foxtel @FOXSportsAUS .

@GrogsGamut Didn't the Coalition hand Foxtel $40 million to support Australian's having to pay to watch women's sport?

@DashDobrofsky Nor Australian democracy. Oh and Malcolm? I'll never forget your successful collaboration with Rupert to save Foxtel by sinking Australia to the bottom of the global list re slowest internet speeds at highest prices. Oh and then there's #reefgate

@FOXTEL_Help @Phil_Staley Looks like there was an issue! Understatement there. 45 mins after losing transmission of a game with 3 mins left and this is the first response from the company responsible? The company that took the money? How are you compensating your customers? #opals #foxtel #disgrace

@jeff_laycock @PatsKarvelas The 10 million soon to be 40 million grant given to foxtel was just Murdoch’s payment from scumo just like the 30 million given prior in 2018. Foxtel should have never been given that money but it wasn’t just for womens sport it was also for mens sport to be show.

@Kings_ThunderAU @kayosports I was watching on foxtel on espnHD and quality was horrible, have just started streaming on Kayo and it’s way better? Strange

If anyone else wants to lodge a complaint with the @acccgovau about the @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel "4K" coverage dropping to HD, just tune in to 30:36 of the #SingaporeGP. The drop to HD is obvious. This has been happening for years.

@tcmoranau Were you watching on Kayo? Apparently only Foxtel is having issues.

They've now gone to 30 for 30 Chuck & Tito...guess @Foxtel can't fix the feed from the Women's Basketball World Cup 😭

@FOXTEL_help #SingaporeGP We notice every time your "4K" coverage drops to HD.... Do you think we're stupid?

@HeyItsNotChris @Blade___McG … and unlike peacock the prices aren’t dirt cheap for a crappy service, we’re actually getting the network cheaper than we’re paying for it now once the services switch, and Foxtel has always had really good streaming quality and service so no drop in quality in any way

@Foxtel what the hell? Your ESPN channel lost transmission. We missed the final minutes of Australia winning & seeing Lauren Jackson bow out & we can't watch the gold medal game. Then you give us a crap show about chuck & Tito. I don't care about them

(@Stely_44) reported
@HeyItsNotChris @Blade___McG WWE Network folding into Foxtel’s brands in australia was a good thing imo, it’s a massive brand in terms of TV here, owned by the leading telecom company, and is the only current source of live WWE content here, having everything else mixed in will boost it majorly…

Thanks for nothing @ESPNAusNZ @Foxtel for dropping the broadcast of the Opals bronze medal match @FIBAWWC … had audio dropouts thru the entire tournament and now a complete blackout with 2 mins left today … can’t believe I pay money for rubbish

@Foxtel can’t believe I am paying for your poor product. Losing feed in the last 2 mins of #FIBA_Womens_Basketball_World_Cup_2022 bronze medal is the final straw.

@muzza_muz @Channel9 #NineFax don't exactly have our best interests at heart either. I don't have Foxtel, I watch through Kayo. Yeah sure almost (not exactly) the same thing but if you're going to go down that road you don't have to go far before it runs into problems.

I hate and love the foxtel "we'll be right back" thing, and the constantly repeated ads. I hate the stupid earworm jingle with a passion. But then I realize that it represents many empty ad slots, meaning ppl aren't advertising with foxtel anymore. And that makes me happy.

Only positive from tonight's game was watching it with my old man, a certified boomer, who started an unprovoked rant about 5 minutes in on how terrible the Nine commentary is, that they don't talk about what is happening on the field & how much better the Foxtel coverage is

@ESPNAusNZ Maybe Foxtel were clapping too hard when a white dude was ****** a black girl in the office. They lost control over the buttons. Kept accidentally pushing other ****.

@Foxtel Disgraceful!! To have your coverage cut out with 3mins to go yet it was still playing on #kayo is disgraceful!! #FIFA23

@BMcSport Must be a transmission/feed issue into Foxtel? Poor timing. Wondering if the other ESPN carriers (Fetch etc) had issues.

@Maurs_5 So let down. Questioning my foxtel subscription. Particularly after I heard kayo were still streaming.
