-
AKoz9 (@Koz9A) reported@RealSprat Might try that. There's definitely just the one playlist atm, and never been that kind of option before. Could be a shortcoming of Prime through Foxtel box, so might try in a diff interface.
-
Glenny (@TheGlenny1) reportedGot 500 channels on foxtel. Only channel not working sky 1 Wtf is going on @SkyRacingAU ******* retarded Black screen for last 2 hrs
-
Chris (@Vossy7) reportedLogging into Foxtel to see Newcastle up 42-38 What ******** is that? Congrats on ******* up your product @NRL
-
Hellen Troy (@HellenTroy6) reported@Foxtel Paying $30 a month for an inadequate Kayo app! By far the worst app streaming. Do you think you might fix your painful app so that we can actually use the forward and replay buttons without being pushed to ads or having to start from the beginning???
-
Nigeyboy (@Nigeyboyl7do) reported@codenrl **** Phil gould he is a ****** . Cannot stand that we have too watch channel 9 coverage of the game , it’s so much better on Foxtel.
-
Wayne Pasterfield (@wpasterfield) reportedCan 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.
-
Jake McCormack (@jakeemccormack) reported@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
-
💧Vratislav Krsek (@vkrsek) reported@StanSportAU we don’t want advertising during live sport. That’s the deal I signed up to. Now you’ve changed the deal. I’m a Premium continuous customer paying $42 pm. Just like I cancelled #foxtel I will cancel you. #9entertainment
-
Dingus wingus (@drewwharton) reported@catgirlprostate I don't think TV in Australia is that bad but the British channel that my mum watches on Foxtel is especially bad.
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job **** you @Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?
-
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
-
Morsey (@WCE92940618) reportedLet’s be honest @7afl coverage is so much better than @FOXFOOTY this year All they need now is a couple Saturday games and i would cancel @Foxtel
-
Yeezalicious (@Yeezalicious69) reported@PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy
-
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.
-
Titus Livius (@bardostate1965) reportedJust went to Foxtel to watch Collingwood game and they’re playing some team with an Aboriginal name. AFL is so woke. I’ll never watch another game again. I’m ******* sick of the pandering. #aflnorthsuns
-
Joe Friday (@sunbakingwombat) reported@hashjenni Foxtel is garbage now, they keep replaying the same crappy movies in a loop.
-
Span (@leespanos) reported@centralNRL Watching the games on the Ch9 1080i broadcast is horrible viewing vs Foxtel true HD and 4k. It just can’t be awarded back to @NRLonNine on this basis alone, with their complete disregard for the @NRL fans viewing experience. Commentary is fine, but low res is just rubbish
-
Chris Rauchle (@ChrisRauchle) reported@tayser82 I believe Foxtel used as much power as a town the size of Lithgow when it first setup in Macquarie Park but, no, that wasn’t a problem
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help And if you ring up you get someone from overseas who has no idea, offers you nothing and you get nowhere. If only there was another pay service to give them competition.
-
Ramon Pinyataro (@ramon_r31189) reportedDo remenber watching this on Foxtel many years ago back in 2012 and recall saying to myself if what she is saying is true i hope people wake up because we are in a lot of trouble
-
@The_Tony 2023 🏆 (@the_tony) reportedFoxtel must be desperate to sell tickets for the Fredumb 250 UFC disgrace, poor old Gerard has to keep pushing the broadcast at every commercial break.
-
Liz 🐨🦈 (@clarkshollanov) reportedGreat now I have to pay for Foxtel again. This **** ain’t cheap.
-
“Sash” Emmanuelle Somerset-Beauverie (@chicpussykat) reported@SimonJCLeBON In 2005, I was $employed w/Telstra phone Foxtel sales & cust service I earnt AUD$1800 fortnight, noon-8pm wkdays. I gym in mornings: Yoga Hatha or Vinyasa (depend what’s on), group Pilates, weight circuit training, 45min treadmill, 45min gym bike, 2yrs= I lost 30kg

X- Y Bailey 🇦🇺🇳🇿 🇨🇦🇩🇪🇮🇹 (@Bailey92035278) reported@EdSaint61 After channel nine just cut NBN news channel 9 don’t deserve any right to NRL rights I hope channel 7 gets it and Foxtel stays too **** channel 9
-
Kurt (@kurtjj95) reported@centralNRL Holy ****, we are finally close to being rid of Matt Thompson. Go on Foxtel
-
Jalin Cedar (@JalinCedar) reported@FOXFOOTY It’s almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer can’t hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?
-
Anna (@spannaforce) reportedIs there a problem with @FOXTEL_Help ? I keep getting playback error message
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.

Scrumblebum (@scrumblebum1) reportedMy god I thought Foxtel was bad till I joined @PrimeVideo . Fu king disaster company this one
