FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Miles (@Michael1953_202) reported@Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .
-
Karen (@Kazza2014) reported@7AFL I hope so or I’ll be going down the pub to watch Foxtel.
-
Diane Richardson (@DiRichardson_) reported@RWBFooty Yes Channel 7 is ****, not everyone can afford Foxtel. 🤬
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@simmos83 @jarrodwalsh Criticising ****** behaviour from Foxtel? And you want to try and pull out club v club ****? The fans of the Hard-done-bys are a ******* weird lot.
-
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.
-
Mia (@mamma_mia111) reported@Foxtel **** product
-
Ethel May Smith (@EthelMaySmith) reported@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!
-
John Rheinberger (@RheinbergerJohn) reported@gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)
-
Cas (@Cas26Harper) reported@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.
-
Bryan S (@BryanS81) reported@Foxtel fix ur sound on the footy!!!
-
Trent Steel (@TAStanton2323) reported@lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.
-
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.
-
Healdyyy (@healdyyy) reported@davisjarrafooty Kayo is dog ****! Foxtel by the length of the Flemington straight
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@CraigTong__ @wayne_kag @AlboMP You ever tried to cancel Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel?
-
yoelmonaro (@yoelmonaro) reportedFoxtel down channel 9 here we go
-
Alex Sar #DonTheSash (@alexmatthewsar) reported@NetballAust Well done to Netball Australia for a historic TV Rights Deal with the Nine Network for the next Five years and taking it off Foxtel.
-
PVO (@vanOnselenP) reportedI watch almost zero free-to-air tv these days, but had to watch 9 NRL tonight bc my Foxtel was down. It’s almost unwatchable compared to Foxtel. The call was good enough, but the commentary was mind numbing. Despite the pedigree of those doing it. Surprisingly bad!
-
jaimee ⁸ ¹ ⭑ (@E8M1AJ) reportedi did a mock order on the foxtel website to see how much it would be to potentially get one. ever since i’ve had them calling me 5-7 times a day 😭 one way to lose a potential customer!
-
lady galadriels 🏏 @ mtcg - ishkh khakfe andu null (@miss_reys_mind) reportedWhy the bloody hell has foxtel still got the stupid seinfeld channel ? Why not a friends channel ? Or a married with children channel ? A frasier/cheers channel ? So many better options than that absolutely stupid show having its own channel
-
tsell (@TsellSellersfam) reported@BillWiIdin I was on the phone to a foxtel employee who put me on hold 3 times to go and check her son who had broken her leg. At least she was honest about it but yeah a 15min phone call ended up taking 45mins. Not productive at all.
-
Andrew (@amea05) reported@Foxtel wtf is going on... Ads in the middle of the Hawks GCS game and now no vision?
-
Shaun ⚽️ (@InTheMixer) reportedThe WU are unlikely coming back and Reddit Rumours that Macarthur are handing back their licence. Literally every Code Football article is negative. I hope David Gallop never gets a job again and that Foxtel/Kayo is liquidated and offshored by DAZN. #BestLeagueInTheWorld
-
🇺🇦Hans Orph🇺🇦 (@HansOrph) reported@Hugh_96 @7plus @Foxtel The Foxtel thing has been dead in my house since Stan took over the Rugby, I've never missed it or looked back
-
Piewarmer (@poundtown777) reported@Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help How are we meant to watch anything when we keep getting playback errors popping up the last 2 days? Surely you come up with a resolution
-
Jason I (@jason_isaia) reportedGreg Swann should come out in this AFL360 interview and say the biggest issue of the week wasnt the umpiring. It was the coverage of Anzac Day with no crowd noise from Foxtel. #AFL #AFL360
-
Luannsmugshot (@luannsmugshoot) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel Lowkey season 5 was so bad the super strict Australian lockdowns killed the show
-
Gary Stainton (@staintong) reported@matt__nicholls Perhaps DAZN's strategy is just to run out the existing contracts while DAZN pockets the subscription and advertising revenue, then eventually shut Kayo/ Foxtel down.
-
Eilegend (@lipsarinna) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel Exactly its even worse MatchBox the production company has been dissolved by NBC 😔 even after Lydia confirmed to me RHUGT down under was going to film
-
LeTigre (@LeTigre_12) reportedCan Foxtel turn down Garry Lyons microphone? He does not shut up
-
El Gordo Ciclista (@elgordociclista) reported@inthebarberry @CattardSlim It’s owned by Fox, so why is anyone to expect? Ironically, Foxtel (basically the country’s biggest cable network and owned by Murdoch) has Sky News and CNN on consecutive channels. Go figure.
