NRLBOSS (@1WeakGuttedDog) reported@banditkayfabe WWF RAW was on Fox Sports 1 on Foxtel at 8.30pm on a Tuesday night for us. Always a few hours late but I was glued every week for about 5-6 years solid without fail.
-
Sia (@sianasios) reported@Foxtel I am trying to login to the app, it buffers, then does nothing and I have opened and closed it many times!
-
daleo (@v4daleo) reported@MotoGP why do I actually give you money ? Your app coverage is **** and completely inconsistent. No functioning service . Cancelation request incoming. Guess Foxtel gets your money now.
-
Ben (@bennyshelts) reported@andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.
-
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
-
Micheal Elliott (@MickElliott11) reported@CamMagicMan Would def cancel foxtel & get kayo only ( if they get partial only)
-
mark macca ๐ ๐ ๐ (@mcdonellaussie) reported@Optus @alexblair_1 First thing I would check is Alex on Kayo or Foxtel? Everyone complains about Kayo I constantly have issues with Foxtel through the internet continuously buffering while my download speeds are in the 80s!
-
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 wasnโt a problem
-
Jalin Cedar (@JalinCedar) reported@FOXFOOTY Itโs almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer canโt hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?
-
Jimmy (@JamesBa40189175) reported@ausbtcclub We get absolutely **** all for working hard here in Oz. I had job and separate business with mates. Struggled for 8 years and everyone made money from the business except us. Electricity, Gas, Foxtel, wages, rent, rates, tax, gst, employee super. @mrYodaJ @fiftyshadezof1
-
Lenny (@Lennylikestoast) reportedI thought i was tripping out. Good to see others complaining too I dont think there is a shitter streaming service than kayo. Australia is getting helf hostage by this foxtel monopoly.
-
Tiger Pops69 (@tigerpops69) reported@A1dynRL @ALeagueHQ Many issues with the A league, its promotion and its coverage. Love to know the audience on paramount + vs Foxtel daysโฆ quality of marquee players has gone down hill and it just lacks the spark it had when Melbourne V Sydney on multiple times packed marvel stadium back then

Scott (Human) - ๐๐แ๐ไนไน๐๐ (@Dorizzdt) reported**** this, I'm going out today to spend $3k on a media setup. I'm going back to just pirating TV/Movies. It's not because I am not willing to pay, its I am tired of paying subscription services and having everything so fragmented and being Nickel and Dimed by the services. When we worked on HD Streaming in the 2000's we set the foundation up for the industry to make video possible more easier. Even back then convincing Hollywood / TV Networks to abandon physical media for streaming was a huge undertaking in itself. They just were ******* in contracts with the creators of content and couldn't find a way to make online work. Fast forward 20 years later and this is the **** we end up with. It literally is just easier to pirate than its to keep doing this. atm I pay for: HBO Max Stan FoxTel Primewire Paramount Netflix Disney+ BritTv (i forgot to cancel the trial fml) AppleTV+ Its about $160 a month AUD I can't find half the **** i want to watch and the stuff that I want to watch is full of ads, or you have to then pay extra ontop. I'm out. stfu ... I'ma use AI to setup a complete end to end media experience.

Mr_Ives (@Mr_Ives_) reported@BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.
-
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.
-
Span (@leespanos) reported@centralNRL Watching the games on the Ch9 1080i broadcast is horrible viewing vs Foxtel true HD and 4k. It just canโt 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
-
bndt (@banditkayfabe) reported@c0op111 I just donโt want channels though I am using Kayo a streaming service. If I wanted Foxtel Now I wouldโve gotten that. I just donโt understand because all they have to do is flick a switch. Doesnโt cost them anything
-
Darren Cope (@LandscopeInfo) reported@lui_zacher Lui pull the post down. It was a Foxtel error not a game day clock. ****
-
Teresa (@teresa_62) reported@NRL Thatโs ridiculous. That means our @Foxtel will increase. There are only a few teams that are watchable. Not worth it. Will cancel .
-
bec s (@bec_8888) reportedJust lost the foxtel signal (must be lots of rain coming) lucky @abcsport working to listen to magic round games @QuentinHull @zanofc Billy Moore
-
albert ross (@bermaguifishing) reported@Katzo60 @smh I know itโs hard in a small country to have meaningful competition but the lack of free to air broadcasts is really bad . The foxtel/kayo offering is pathetic for the money they charge
-
emily (@embankss_) reportednever forget when my family had foxtel iq and my dad had every single episode of bar rescue recorded
-
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.
-
Julie Burgess (@julieburgess623) reported@Telstra for 5 days now we have been unable to watch Foxtel as our internet speed is 4.49 as per their consultant. We have contacted NBN who told us to contact Telstra. The person there said the problem is our modem which it is not. We need a solution please Telstra.

Jez - WORLD PEACE PLEASE ๐๏ธโค๏ธ๐ ๐ต๐ธ๐บ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ท๐ (@Jezzabhai108) reported@landry235 I very much think, Sue, that you and I are in the same 'Club'. I'm having a terrible time at the moment. I'm staying with Mum in Sydney and frankly, I think I'd feel more welcome and comfortable in a morgue. These things were sent to test us. And that reminds me: on my 50th birthday I hadn't heard ANYTHING from Mum by 5 in the afternoon, so I decided to phone her instead. She answered the phone in a foul mood and said she couldn't talk right then because she was having trouble with setting the Foxtel box to record the news! And then she hung up ๐๐๐
-
Peter Dewar (@PeterD84508) reported@timritchie It was failed PM John Howard that sold off Telstra to the tax payers that already owned it. A disgraceful act when we also needed to upgrade to the optic fibre network at the same time. The LNP / Foxtel version of the NBN was another disgraceful failure ....
-
Alex Carter (@abbacarter) reportedHas PVL sent instructions to Annesley to ensure the Broncos are still in the comp? Part of the rights deal with DZN / Foxtel or what? Downright embarrassing officiating. Off night from Cleary though, his kicking game was poor #NRLPanthersBroncos #PanthersvBroncos
-
Rachel (@beetwoot) reported@FOXTEL_Help so apparently your live chat only works up to the point of saying โitโs still not workingโ and then they drop the chat.

LJ (@ADDICTED2GAM3S) reported@FadeAwayMedia I remember watching this on foxtel I was like this some good ****
