  • DarrenJex DarrenJex (@DarrenJex) reported

    @Fox_Motorsport At least put Wednesday thru Sunday in their guide. (Still showing Gold Coast race) Foxtel told me today “ it’s being shown on FTA channel 7.”, not there issue,they have no idea.

  • _georgie_girl_ Georgie Low (@_georgie_girl_) reported

    Any chance @Foxtel would be willing to give Android users a discount considering Foxtel Go app has imploded with Android 12 upgrade? If you're wanting people to move to mobile streaming services, probably a good idea to have a product that works. Also, no solution or ETA yet.

  • PedestrianCrit1 PedestrianCritic (@PedestrianCrit1) reported

    @ben_damon @MainEventTV There’s been a lack of publicity from Foxtel on this fight. Absolutely disgraceful. If it was Tszyu it would be plastered on all news channels including Al Jazaeera on Fox. I guess the surname and $ help coming for. Tszyu for mainevent.

  • thomas_no9 Thomas Panagiotakis (@thomas_no9) reported

    @FOXNRL Foxtel is dying a slow death and Fox Sports it seams it doing a Sky News with sensationalist rubbish to suck people in. These signings are for 2023. The dogs flicked many this year with more to come next year. Nothing to see here!

  • kylsm5 💧💉💉Kylie Mumby (@kylsm5) reported

    @PrincessPark7 @Foxtel Yup I took it up end of last yr / early this yr… same $5 for being a Telstra customer

  • ddsmall2000 ddsydney (@ddsmall2000) reported

    @ParamountPlusAU @jasonwylie77 Agree unwatchable again. Can't you make a better app or streaming service. Where is the foxtel app happening

  • rejacktion jack peacock (@rejacktion) reported

    @kevinlgerhardt You really can’t compare the ratings - Foxtel has a streaming service now, so the episode is played live on Foxtel and released on Binge at the same time. Would be curious to see 7 day viewing numbers including these views

  • MainPlaya Nige Ellevsen (@MainPlaya) reported

    Have tried to communicate with @Foxtel using the chat app, txt message etc...absolutely hopeless! Just wanted to know what @NBA games were on due to TV guide not working. @ESPNAusNZ not sure who's responsible for the 3rd world NBA coverage on foxtel...can only assume it's Foxtel

  • sentientveggie Xangcris (@sentientveggie) reported

    @GendoWasRight Over 15 years since Foxtel was ditched. Never missed it

  • schillerdor Schillerdor (@schillerdor) reported

    Wow. @aleaguemen Please give the rights back to Foxtel. Choice is now between an abysmal streaming service with no features, poor quality (@ParamountPlusAU), or occasionally @10FootballAU for feature games full of ads. You went for the payday but have screwed the game #ADLvMCY

  • HappyPawsTreats Lynn Phillips (@HappyPawsTreats) reported

    @GidgitVonLaRue I woke up, saw "the new variant" was clogging every "news" channel Local, US & Europe So I turned on Foxtel Box set "The Americans", got in the kitchen & I've been making dog treats all day. My on-line business I've never been happier, less stressed & more productive

  • FOXTEL_Help Foxtel Help 📺 🆘 (@FOXTEL_Help) reported

    @ted_thorne Hi Ted, we're aware of the issue with the online tv guide, this is currently being investigated by our engineers who are working to resolve this ASAP. You should be able to use the online TV guide through the My Foxtel app in the meantime. -Mac

  • PeterH314 Pete Hoskins (@PeterH314) reported

    @TruckiePete @GTRoberts @supercars Yes, Foxtel’s week of past Bathurst classics, just another reason to limit the amount of time away from the TV and prey Foxtel doesn’t have any service issues…

  • linay65 Mrs Jewell (@linay65) reported

    @RHOMExclusive @Foxtel Well that is Crap💩Poor excuse

  • bugwannostra Mark Dickenson, measuring insanity in Oz politics! (@bugwannostra) reported

    29: Why do we give public money to Foxtel while defunding the ABC and SBS? Answer 29. Ask Rupert? It's above my pay grade. We do hate the ABC and SBS. Diversity sucks.

  • MickColliss Mick Colliss (@MickColliss) reported

    I’ve just been notified by Foxtel that a technician will be arriving at my home sometime between 7am and 5pm tomorrow. That narrows it down a bit.

  • xchasechaos lex (@xchasechaos) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help is sending a new hub really the only solution to any internet issue or what? This is the 5th hub we’re being sent and it’s getting ridiculous.

  • DebsHof Debbie Hofstetter (@DebsHof) reported

    Trying to find a movie is hell with my husband! Foxtel down!

  • Great_El_Fuerte The Great El Fuerte (@Great_El_Fuerte) reported

    @AngeloFalls Don't consider this a defence of streaming service either. There's still insane problems with them like the amount they pay for shows or Netflix's Cuties and Chappelle nonsense. Its moreso a takedown of cable as using Foxtel a couple of years ago-

  • sammiedude88 Sam Sammoi Gordon (@sammiedude88) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help TV guide needs a bit of an update for this weekends Supercars action, it’s down as “Gold Coast” but the event is at Bathurst, oops team!🤪

  • winsordobbin Winsor Dobbin (@winsordobbin) reported

    Hi @FOXTEL_Help Some weeks ago I was sent a letter saying I was being given extra channels. That never happened. How do I check please?

  • thatqueenbishco Saf ❤️ (@thatqueenbishco) reported

    @RHOMExclusive @Foxtel I wanted to see Janet vs Kyra so bad

  • Holly24116384 Holly (@Holly24116384) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Can someone who isn't the account holder cancel the account? We wish to cancel but the account is in my husband's name although I am the contact person.

  • 2FacedPink Stephen Pink 🧙🏼‍♂️🐕 (@2FacedPink) reported

    @RHOMExclusive @Foxtel Big mistake. Terrible decision. Your telling me they couldn’t set it up to be even done on zoom. Read the room @Foxtel 😑

  • readyforliberty Liberty Campaign (@readyforliberty) reported

    @SkyNewsAust **** like this is why I cancelled my Foxtel subscription.

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    Had to reboot my Foxtel box this morning as parts of my Foxtel is not responding well and it will give it a boost of freshness to get it going and this morning is taking a long time to reboot as it is raining here and sometimes the satellite signal will go out.

  • patsuke John Patsoukas (@patsuke) reported

    @10FootballAU @ParamountPlusAU Chrome casting on your platform is almost impossible, just freezes call the time . No problem with Foxtel or Stan casting for Champions or Europa League . Optus for EPL is no problem either so it’s not my internet !

  • firewiredigital Brogan - Firewire Digital (@firewiredigital) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    Look I know we all liked to watch the @aleaguemen on mute when it was on Foxtel but come on @ParamountPlusAU wtf is going on? #WSWvNEW

  • BlackRocko100 Babanguida (@BlackRocko100) reported

    @Foxtel Happily Murdoch free. Foxtel customer service is garbage, #MurdochGutterMedia vomits hate through its faux Fox and Sky ‘news’ channels, and it’s hugely overpriced.

  • exileevermore ames (taylor’s version) 🐈‍⬛ (@exileevermore) reported

    @3amwilds i was poor i couldn’t get into them as a kid bc i didn’t have foxtel this is triggering <\3
