    @Foxtel Hey, can we change our current package to this one, because as existing customers we are being absolutely rorted. Also the IQ3 box doesn’t work so we are watching everything on foxtel go because the thought of calling you to ‘fix it’ is literally the worst..

  • v2rbrisbane
    gazdoe (@v2rbrisbane) reported

    @andy_penn when is your company going to fix the tv reception delivered by cable that no one is fixing in the Fitzgibbon 4018 area in brisbane. No tv reception nor foxtel since monday. Keep getting told there is no issue. Tell that to a whole community who are venting.

    @Foxtel On sale is Foxtel, taken for granted and never on sale is your precious time waisted by thousands and thousands of Ads. You pay Foxtel to trade your limited life for their miserable Ads and profit.

    Had to watch this weeks episode of Amazing Grace over my channel Nine App on my iPhone as it got interrupted last recording on my Foxtel Box. I think my aerial connection for my free to air channels is having issues as it plays up on my Foxtel and goes fuzzy a lot.

    @Foxtel I call up and said I want cancel my foxtel Dropped price from $80 to $49 a month But runs out next month getting rid of it Got Amazon prime for $59 a year

    @Foxtel Yep but as a loyal customer I pay more and don't get Netflix and you cancelled on-demand for my box and you threatened to charge me for a new box to continue the current service I was already paying for #notgoodenough

    Michael Jarosky (@MichaelJarosky) reported

    @JonDorrity @Foxtel Call to cancel with explanation: “It’s too expensive. I only need sport so I’ll just stream Kayo at $25 per month.” Operator will knock your fee to $40 per month in order to keep you on.

    @FOXTEL_Help It doesn’t help that I have 85 inch tv and in all honesty the HD on @Channel7 is better quality then Foxtel (from what I’m seeing anyway)

    @FOXTEL_Help Thank you! Just went through 289 eps of Peppa Pig and had to delete 91 duplicates by writing down titles and cross-referencing. My kid better appreciate this

    At this point I'm 90% sure that the only people who still have Foxtel are over the age of 35 - or have poor/no internet service and have no other choice. Yet Foxtel still tryna tell me that $70 a month is a 'great deal'

    Is this a bad time to say it's being broadcast for free on FOXTEL in Australia. I saw $60 in some places. #SnyderCut

    @Foxtel Take you money elsewhere Foxtel is expensive, repetitive crap with ads. Murdoch doesn’t need any more money.

    @Foxtel do your programmers know that there are more movies than ' The Big Lebowski'? Seriously, that **** is on monthly replay. I'm looking at dropping Foxtel ( after 15 years) . Fix your ****!

    Cancelled Foxtel - They asked why. I said the treatment of the A-League and what they did to try and destroy the league during COVID. Old mate had no answer and just went, OK thank's for your time. It's really because we are knocking down our house..but where is the fun in that

    @Foxtel Who on earth would pay for your crap service (other than people on unstable satellite connections)? You cannot possibly justify the price of subscription. And lock in contracts? **** that...

    Warner Media pulling CNN, Boomerang, and Cartoon Network from Fetch, after signing exclusive deal with Foxtel. Fetch recommending customers file complaint with ACCC for anti-competitive behaviour. Thankfully Fetch has MSNBC, which is a far superior news channel to CNN

    So is the Snyder Cut up on torrent sites yet? I ain't going through the "legal" way to view it in Aus. Foxtel and Rupert Murdoch can **** off.

    @Voidztar It's on Foxtel/Binge, the Cable/Streaming service here. I don't have it atm cos $$$. Let me know if it's any good. I'm not a fan of Snyder films and didn't think much of his other DC films. I'm hoping to be surprised by ZSJL.
