    @CurttiMagurtti Was never a Disney channel person we watched Cartoon network and Boomerang when we had Foxtel.

    @JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!

    @onepercentas When travelling in my caravan all my streaming platforms would work with a low internet signal except for one... KAYO. It's like they deliberately make it bad so that people sign up for Foxtel

    @500Indy1911 If you have a foxtel sports in Aus you get F1TV for free. You get ads during Practice and Qualifying on Foxtel as well. I guess it just comes down to the sky feed running ad breaks.

    @Michael94858047 Streaming services are ******* ridiculous. Prime is not the same as foxtel obviously but all the payments and then still gotta purchase **** it's ******* bullshit

    @schaferstrategy I loved Sydney but unfortunately, I don’t think it’s coming back anytime soon. The only way in which I see them potentially bringing back Sydney and Melbourne, is if a streaming service like Hayu picks up the series. But I’m doubtful they’d run both under Foxtel/Binge

    @Foxtel call customer support and box not showing channels and loading, told it will take 2 business days for someone to contact, simply not good enough

    @JOSH______NZ @skysportnz Did the exact same here with Foxtel, it’s a ****** joke…. Then he got blocked and Croftey goes “I didn’t think it was all that bad to be honest!” They barely acknowledge him at all, it’s farcical.

    @kayosports @kayosports_help Foxtel is looking really good with no service and then need to sign into my own tv. Not good enough! I pay for the service and don’t need to sign in all the time, pathetic.

    Wtf looked up the matildas final start time and now I’m getting instagram ads for foxtel. the algorithm got it all wrong I’m into ******** not SPORT

    @lorahmoe Foxtel was originally sold to us as ad free tv more than 20 years ago. A few yrs later we’d sit down to watch something, Didn’t matter what channel. You’d watch a few minutes then there were 10 mins of ads..we were paying $100 a Month for that!?? Absolute rubbish.

    @kayosports_help moved from Foxtel to Kayo. Mistake. Rarely had an issue with Foxtel, more dropouts and circle of death with Kayo in one month vs 25 years with Foxtel. Running NBN500. If there’s some simple fix let me know. Otherwise, I’ll bank a refund and return to Foxtel.

    @FOXTEL_Help foxtel support is crap but you can still see crap, foxtel support does not exist. It is 9am qld time and no support. Calls hang up and no agents online in the super fast agent support

    @Croccers @nikkivioletgwen @F1Media No, my problem is how expensive it is to access the one single sport I actually care about watching live, when there are better streaming options in other countries, my problem is Kayo/Foxtel having the exclusive rights then continually ripping us off with overpriced streaming

    Please someone explain - Why is AFL on Foxtel with a Hindi call - WTF has this country become. “Time to rid the gardening of twitch”

    @Foxtel your so called free HBO MAX app is the worst, adverts through every program, glitching constantly.abd we have the pleasure of paying extra to get the decent version. What a con job on all Foxtel customers who had these shows previously as part of their subscription.

    @ScottBornAgain I was never asked to sign a release even digitally to do tmz and that’s illegal, anyone want to help me here or am I just gonna sit here forever I have proof they used it for money making advertising ventures as I was able to screen record it off the app mind you it’s a foxtel company.
