    @Foxtel your so called free HBO MAX app is the worst, adverts through every program, glitching constantly.abd we have the pleasure of paying extra to get the decent version. What a con job on all Foxtel customers who had these shows previously as part of their subscription.

    @kayosports @Foxtel tv director has to lose his job after this performance. This might be the worst major sporting event coverage I’ve ever seen #AFLDonsPies

    @TheBackPocketAU I don’t have my iPad charged very often these days but regularly watch VFL & footy (Foxtel Go) on my iphone if I’m trying to multitask. This includes watching 2024 Swans v Suns W final at a Motley Crue/Def Leppard concert. Never had any issues. Wishing your dad a quick recovery.

    @utahsocialite @Foxtel Lowkey season 5 was so bad the super strict Australian lockdowns killed the show

    @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

    @FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it

    @Michael94858047 I ditched Foxtel at least 10 years ago. Never again!

    @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.

    @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!

    @Michael94858047 I didn't even know you could still get Foxtel. Just get unlimited internet and watch YouTube. It's free in about the same quality of content you'd get from pay tv or a streaming service

    @HEdwardfan @luannsmugshoot @Foxtel It really wasn’t that bad just in comparison to the other seasons it fell short but I still think they deserved a 6th and I’d be more inclined to believe it’ll come if they hadn’t teased it for the past 3 years 💀

    @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 .

    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. 🤬🤬

    @thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.

    @JFalleiro Jeepers. I try to cancel my foxtel and I have the retention department sending me emails, and them giving me deals I don’t want over the phone! I can’t escape them! I feel sad hearing all this. I genuinely do.

    @tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it 😭
