FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
RationalMan74 (@RationalMan74) reported@onepercentas Why does it even exist? Why do Foxtel not simply offer a sports only package? Why does it seem to run off different tech to the Foxtel app which has zero issues?
-
InnerQuasar35 (@Pom_Bazooka) reported@intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.
-
Cats_Can_Trade (@CatsTrade) reported@Michael94858047 I ditched Foxtel at least 10 years ago. Never again!
-
***** (@guidohatzis) reported@RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.
-
Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
-
Dr P (@pm_phd) reported@StreamOnMax please fix your app. It glitches at every pseudo ad break requiring a restart. Super annoying and so cheap. #foxtel @Foxtel
-
twittaninja (@nathan_s4) reported@FOXTEL_Help hello there seems to be some issues with the paramount + app when trying to begin an episode of Ghosts (US version) it gets stuck after the preview has finished and as well if you skip the previews, not sure if it occurs with other show or not, please 🙏
-
Toby Cook (@MrTobyCook) reported@BingIsBackBaby @Foxtel The @FOXTEL_Help team are absolute jerks these days. The chat service is even worse than the phone service. They just lie and refuse to help.
-
David Whitehead (@Whitehead13D) reported@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.
-
Aron Roach (@AronRoach7) reported@taximalsVT Foxtel was ****, and when Telstra first Introduced the High speed net, It really was Super fast high speed net for the first few months.. We got heaps. But they realised this, and all ISP's have been throttling the **** out of it every since.
-
JasonF. (@AnInterObserver) reported@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.
-
***** (@guidohatzis) reportedQuestion for Kayo people. Why don't you have Foxtel? I've never seen a 'How good is Kayo' post. From what I'm seeing, having Kayo is like going to a brothel for a cuddle. Waste of time and money. #AFL
-
Camorae5196 (@camorae5196) reported@realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho

Carlisle Reid (@carlisle_reid) reported@thegabriel72 All you people that think this idiot War leader has any credibility please write down his back ground . Grunt in the army And Foxtel news So he’s a great asset to your country Mans a complete bullshit artist …
-
Keith Ian Anderson (@KeithAn15068821) reported@1116sen @SENBreakfast The issue was that foxtel lost the sync to the clock. The clock was still running on Channel 7 and so was still running for the timekeepers
-
Paul Corlson (@pauljc26) reportedThese commercials selling stuff are getting out of hand on @Foxtel, it's bad enough for pay to watch ads now we have to sit through this crap
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@CraigTong__ @wayne_kag @AlboMP You ever tried to cancel Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel?
-
Bianca (@Bianca051985) reported@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
-
Dariyen Jones (@DetroitLemons99) reported@FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it

-
Paul Christie (@007paulchristie) reported@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.
-
Mustard (@Curiosooo123) reported@cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.

Eilegend (@lipsarinna) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel It was terrible I think we should do a petition for Binge to pick it back up
-
NotoriousCYP (@NotoriousCYP) reportedSo what channel am I supposed to watch New Zealand vs South Africa on? Wtf am I paying for? @FoxCricket @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help #cricketlikeneverbefore

ash 🦕 (@lovronolastname) reported@tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it 😭
