@JasonTh46858503 @Foxtel “What's that every time the corrupt Morrison speaks lot of detritus comes out of Morrison's mouth” I’m sorry; I’m sure it’s me, but if it’s not too much trouble, can you run that by me one more time?

@Christoph_Elena @LaurenHLoz @TheodoorSteen I just sort of refuse to sign up to foxtel’s yearly relaunch of their shitty streaming service. Have been meaning to watch Small Axe though.

@Foxtel Yeah I’ve tried that, nothing happens. If I hold down the button on the box it turns blue but then goes back to red in about 5 seconds

Currently on hold with the clowns at foxtel who want me to pay for an "upgrade" to be able to stream shows on demand (a service I have always had) after having paid their rather extravagant costs for well over a decade. Not exactly peak customer service.

Lucky for foxtel they don't have any competition so I can't cancel them and subscribe to another streaming service. Oh wait...

@Foxtel The worst show ever. How this **** remains on TV is beyond me.

@Foxtel upped me plan without notifying me now when I call in, happy to cancel or offer me the same plan at 20 bucks more per month. Appealing service, the worst being the jump without notice. Will be reporting this further.

@PeteJMcGill @Foxtel I'm just saying that Morrison is full of s*** because everything on TV these days is about LNP and Morrisons announcements that never come true

@katea76 Never have, never will when they treat their "employees" like slaves. I can never believe how many people have no compunction to buy food this way. I guess this is the issue with society today - you know it's not good but you do it anyway - like Foxtel viewers & LNP voters!

Dealing with @Foxtel is a massive pain in the arse. You book a house move 2 weeks in advance & they tell you to contact them to activate the service when you move. 3 days of phone calls later & the overseas customer service people still can't work out why it's not working.

@FOXTEL_Help Georgia, can I pass around a hat and get a coupla dollerydoos together? Would that help? @JoeyNicita? But in all seriousness, is there a way we can petition Foxtel to look at it in 2022?

I swear to god "The King of Queens" is on at least 18 hours a day on @Foxtel , which if it was a good show wouldn't be a bad thing. But it is not a good show. No Foxtel, it is a horrendous show

@FreddoFrog11 @HenryLawson55 @OMGTheMess I think that was wrong for the government to give Foxtel money. You could make an argument for a service for emergency information. Not news or current affairs shows.

@WajahatAli The Australian Federal gov hand gift millions to them, allow them to have a studio in the Aust Parlt & duped Aus into accepting an inferior National Broadband Network to make sure Murdoch’s Foxtel wasn’t disadvantaged. And their evil clowns spew damaging disinformation here.
