Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Christopher Benson (@BennoOnline) reported@dunek4ck @Foxtel Seems by providing a really **** service they are pushing people onto Kayo... why the hell am I watching nascar while F1 should be playing!!! @foxtel are providing a substandard service onpurpose
-
Cain O'Sullivan (@cainosullivan) reported@AFLNow I cancelled mine a few years back and switched to Foxtel instead... the Kayo service was terrible, always dropping out, but Foxtel is way better.
-
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
-
.H.Ɔ.ꟼ (@IWasBornIn1975) reportedThere are many Foxtel customers in Australia who are eagerly awaiting the day when the Tszyu's are no longer shoved down our throats.
-
Edie Wyatt (@msediewyatt) reportedKaralee Katsambanis has blocked me on Instagram, but my complaint is in with Sky via Foxtel who is my streaming platform. If they don’t respond I will be lodging a complaint with ACMA. She could just apologise.
-
Leigh (@hinterland33) reported@sportandracing @AussieNinerGuy @footyindustryAU Um Yes AFL broadcast agreement with the Seven Network & Foxtel includes built-in annual indexation Compound Growth: The contract features an in-built indexation rate, which represents a compound annual growth rate of about 3.6% for the rights fees over the life of the agreement
-
H Met Louis 📚🎧🇦🇺 (@Sokolovonfire) reported**** THIS **** I DONT HAVE FOXTEL @HBO WHY DIDNT YOU GET THE RIGHTS FOR AUSTRALIA
-
Kmac (@Kjmac89) reported@BigdogGC77 @gilby_gillard @kayosports When you say losing customers? Are people moving over to Foxtel? Or how else do you watch sport? Genuinely curious, I’ve got Foxtel so never had Kayo, seems like a terrible service
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@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!
-
Matlock (@Matlock47825386) reported@filmgeek_rq Yep absolute **** show. Murdoch said you’ll kill Foxtel so don’t let fibre happen, so Abbott dutifully obliged said ‘25mbps’ was sufficient. We’ve wasted billions on this the original plan was clearly the way to go.
-
Paul Corlson (@pauljc26) reportedMan @Foxtel have some utter trash shows on the service now, they want to hope they get the tv rights for the NRL again or people will leave in droves
-
Lexi (@baroque_doll) reportedWho keeps letting these stupid foxtel ***** have exclusive rights to ****, who ******** is paying these prices
-
Craig The Speculator (@craigspeculator) reported@Easts4Life @Foxtel that's lovely. Yes I would think something along the lines of "so sorry, glad she had been a customer of ours, all the best"
-
T158 (@trobb158) reported@ColettaFrank @Gatty54 Foxtel are flooding their ‘crap’ programs with the cringeworthy ads for the circus at the White House, calling it the greatest sports event in history.
-
Adam (@AdamTurbil38435) reported@Markedw For the SBS to outbid the likes of foxtel or Amazon . If a publicly funded network can outbid paid services.. maybe it should be looked at
-
Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported@GregDavis006 Imagine the poor ***** who don't have Foxtel and have to watch channel 9 for all their footie all year! I'd just stop.
-
Bill Blakeney 🇦🇺 (@wablakeney) reported@Foxtel camera work for #AFLlionshawks is garbage!!
-
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.
-
Punt Road Ferraris (@sk44476342) reported@ZRistevski @rohan_connolly May have only been an issue on Kayo. I regret disconnecting Foxtel. Kayo sucks.
-
Stonkin Days (@n0otherwaythere) reported@craigspeculator @Foxtel You can’t expect service workers to do emotional Labor. They’d get these calls all day. Personally I as a customer would prefer they keep it cold.
-
bndt (@banditkayfabe) reportedThe audio on Kayo sounds awful and hollow but the audio on Foxtel is ok. What is going on thought my TV was playing up #AFLTigersHawks
-
T Highgate (@THighgate11) reported@LeagueScenePod NRL won’t go for this. V’landys has said numorous times that he wants $4 billion for 5 years. This offer is $4 billion for 7 years which is worst than what the current AFL deal is. Foxtel needs this deal more than the NRL at this stage.
-
Ck (@ckk766) reportedDoes the commentary team on #foxtel give any coverage at all of #piastri in F1? He’s leading Q1 and Q2 yet they’ve not spoken about him or even shown his laps once. Wtf
-
Kaitlyn (@doublepiked) reportedFoxtel hasn't got a single nrl or afl replay available from this week. What a useless piece of **** this service is.
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@KobieThatcher I'm still unsure how they measure how many people watch it as I've never seen a survey for it. Free to Air over Antenna is receive only as is Foxtel over satellite. I don't know many that watch FTA via the app.
-
Chris. ⚓️ (@mr_chitafa) reported@lozza929406 Foxtel were just as bad. Huddo spent the entire last quarter going on about it.
-
Athena's Ivory Bracelet (@fuckthebracelet) reported@Foxtel @binge Obviously they could prove me wrong, but shows like Housewives don't work with a cast full of polished, self-aware types. This is basically why S5 was a let down. The newbies were way too conscious of how they would be portrayed.
-
Craig Thompson (@CraigGFCConsult) reported@leighjones0212 @Foxtel Haven’t watched that show since he started hosting. And Lyon for Robbo was a poor trade as well.
-
Deb (@cDebIn2050) reported@DrG2020V @GregDavis006 From what I have seen on Foxtel, it’s pretty bad
-
antqld (@antqldbwog) reported@Darcy_Cosgriff @NicNegrepontis This has always been the case, make Kayo so **** and we can squeeze a few extra $$$ out of people when they sign on to foxtel.
