    @myco54896926 @Blazebit9 @RealEmirHan Unfortunately Foxtel (Murdoch's) had the exclusive rights in my country at the time and it looked **** and you couldn't even buy it from someone like Apple until a year later and it was only in HD. I had to buy the last season on an Ultra HD Bluray. Then i could appreciated it

    @utahsocialite @Foxtel The mini revival they had the cast were awful. Ahaha you had the lady who left half way through. And the other filler people.

    @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.

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    @ranmasaotome96 Game of Thrones being locked down by Foxtel forced it. I would have bought day-of released episodes via iTunes or Xbox Video if given the option. But nooooo- had to go sign an exclusivity deal with Foxtel.

    @mitchellnash92 Will cancel my foxtel subscription because I will have no joy in watching the midweek shows this year.

    Can either @Foxtel or @SkyRacingAU fix the program banner and program guide for channel 528 so it reflects what is on and when please. Hard watching replays when you don’t know when they’re on.

  • b_dog_78

    @NicNegrepontis Foxtel is borderline unwatchable. Signal dropping in and out. There is no rain and not a breath of wind outside, so the “poor weather” excuse is not valid. Just a poor service all round.

    I'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬

    @Foxtel I sent an email to Foxtel and tried to make a follow up phone call. But the live chat cut out. My wife passed away on Friday and I have no interest in television so I want to cancel my account.

    @BingIsBackBaby @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help I’ll try that. It’s hard because the product website says one thing and their staff say another. But yes I’ll call next week and eventually I’ll get it sorted. But yeah, horrible experience every time I have to adjust anything. Terrible call center except for the Australian one.

    @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.
