-
Leon (@LeonOnTheRadio) reported@MrBlairHughes @LeagueUnlimited @kayosports That wasn't a Kayo issue that one, it happened on my Foxtel as well.
-
Scotty 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 (@Scotter68) reported@NorthBankNadim @SkySports I totally agree with this that’s why I’ve pulled the pin on my Sky subscription recently as they have stopped low with this type of hater …Sky sports news has definitely gone down hill I even used to watch it in the 90s in Australia on foxtel
-
odd ✮⋆˙。・゜・ (@pusherll) reportedalso this was produced by the biggest australian television network yet it was no where to be found on streaming?? how does that work foxtel 🤨
-
Mr Clown (@clownfeatures69) reported@Foxtel day off 3 games of NBA and you pick the worst game to show.
-
Andrew (@Andrew664621) reported@Jousting_Sticks Of course it is, but consider the majority of your footy watchers are 10 cans or pots deep on the couch or at the pub, it’s hardly something they’re going to cancel their kayo or Foxtel membership over.
-
Carl Raymond 🌞🌞🔋 (@CarlSparre) reported@ruicharadrius Wifi here is like wifi anywhere, afaik. Perhaps you mean bandwidth. For that problem blame the government that thought fibre to premises was overkill. Turnbull, under the thumb of Murdoch who was protecting Foxtel. We don’t hate Murdoch enough.
-
Joc (@cookivirus) reported@C1_1RIS As an international fan, I find it ridiculous that the entire season isnt broadcasted by the same company But it also isn't my problem cuz foxtel broadcasts the whole season
-
Judy Bourke (@judithbourke) reported@TraceyLee_07 Try Foxtel all it is repeats Really we are paying for a service not repeats
-
AlexanderV (@PedlarFan) reported@fa37376 Do you understand how much money Qatar and the UAE have? Saudi Arabia have a minority stake in DAZN who bought Foxtel which plays Sydney games on it. They can’t take it back, but they could have easily renewed the sponsorship, instead they turned down the money.

Charlie Sheehan (@pauliewalnut) reported@FOXNRL I signed up for Foxtel in 1992 primarily for the rugby league coverage….i hope like hell they lose the broadcast rights ! Ennis, Voss, Duke, Alexander are ****** terrible commentators
-
for whom the jelly rolls (@CosmoKramer1299) reported@FOXTEL_Help I am currently unable to stream the Freo-Hawks AFL game from last night. When I select stream, it is a 2 minute episode of In The Back Pocket instead of the game. Can you fix this please?
-
Adrian Sal (@adriansal80) reported@2_Blue_Baggers @SC___Scout I've had Foxtel since day one, in fact I remember getting galaxy when it first came to Australia. Have never used Kayo and would never use Kayo.
-
H_the_Strange (@H_the_Strange) reported@bimmyjartel @FOXTEL_Help That’s it, isn’t it? They have no competition so they don’t care how they treat people. Like Australia Post. They don’t have competition, so they don’t care.
-
Chris. ⚓️ (@mr_chitafa) reported@thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.
-
Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported@Ryandally08 Perhaps 7,9,10 and SBS and WIN too who all get a subsidy and tax breaks to broadcast. I mean even Foxtel got $30 mill perhaps shut them down too. Radio….well that’s ****. Shut them down as well.
-
john ross (@jayandp) reported@OunkaOnX Foxtel idiot. Quote some more Pulp Fiction!
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@Sarcastic_Cow @FOXTEL_Help Costs keep going up and standard going down. Few years ago there would be maybe 2 or 3 replays for every club.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Angry E𝕏ile 🇺🇦 (@AngryExile) reported@Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@centralNRL He used to talk down the value of the nrl tv deal every time it was up for renewal when he had a job at Foxtel. Even they got sick of him
-
Anna (@spannaforce) reportedIs there a problem with @FOXTEL_Help ? I keep getting playback error message
-
Wayno (@kts350) reported@FOXTEL_Help having constant issues trying to get foxtel to work on my browser, using chrome settings are up to date I reset my cache still live only plays stuff from 30 mins ago then stops tried restarting still doesnt fix it
-
Les Slee (@Manlyles) reportedIs there a worse company to deal with than @ Foxtel absolutely **** service

Ben (@bennyshelts) reported@andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.
-
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.
-
Travis 🇦🇺 (@TravisNei) reported@footyindustryAU Well if that happened I would immediately stop my foxtel service
-
Daniel james Vogel (@djv0073) reportedDon't pay for any applications or subscriptions. Cancel netflix foxtel etc all streaming platforms we own the phone companies. Delete bank account & open a new one. Information will be readily available at the touch of a finger. You can i read any encyclopaedia or text book Free.
