    Considering how much we pay for Foxtel, a lot of the **** on here are repeats and old ones at that.

  • AFF_Ultras .\ Australian Sokkah Transfer News (@AFF_Ultras) reported

    @Rileyskitten1 Covid happened and the downhill trajectory with foxtel would likely caused the same issues. But i see you really want is Brenton Speed + Pause and Rewind

    @MayankJohnson22 @crowdiegal @cricketcomau anti siphoning laws restrict where Foxtel can promote it, its one of the issues with the games being exclusive to foxtel, people simply dont know about them

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Please kenty , I’d like to see your outrage of the two players charged with DV ?? Haven’t heard boo from you about that …. But please continues to whinge about Penrith players a new one for saying “parra sucks”

    @Foxtel My problem with Foxtel is Murdoch

  • Huge_spinner Brian - the other one (@Huge_spinner) reported

  • johnsonleung Johnson Leung (@johnsonleung) reported

    @SteveMolk It needs to buy the broadcast rights to Cricket Australia matches (existing rights with Ch7/Foxtel expire in 2024). Hopefully with a new CEO on board, CA will treat 10/Paramount a lot better this time

  • CortesiGarda Garda Cortesi (@CortesiGarda) reported

    @Foxtel Never sign up to give money to anything Rupert Murdoch owns or has an interest in

  • rpotrosko Ross P (@rpotrosko) reported

    @nickjr what's with the paw patrol non stop? Issue or marathon? Daughters are hanging for Paddington Bear to return. On both Foxtel and Fetch

  • moodylightsmed Cameron (@moodylightsmed) reported

    @BraydenL99 Damn that sucks wish it was still on Foxtel lmao maybe I’ll have to invest in paramount

  • TG_Footy_Tragic Terry (@TG_Footy_Tragic) reported

    @RutegerJones Yeah, right. Maybe remove the IQ and see what happens. If it works, maybe contact foxtel and work out what their **** is

  • LeroyLouis10 Ivy (@LeroyLouis10) reported

    @CQDeano My elderly mother tried yesterday and was given the run around so much that she ended up in tears. I'M going to do it for her today - she can ID me and hand the phone over. Their customer service people are shocking bullies - DISGUSTING behaviour. @Foxtel

  • DarrenBeale2 Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported

    @Foxtel You just never read the room , rewarding new customers whilst hoping long time customers just stay is a failed business model no wonder so many ditch Foxtel

  • BFacist Black Trump Semi Facist (@BFacist) reported

    Hey @Foxtel Daylight saving change on east coast last weekend has screwed up recording times for US based channels, recording times are wrong by one hour. When are you going to fix it?

  • brycerider alien cat lord 🛸 (@brycerider) reported

    @QuentinDempster Because it was a threat to Foxtel so the LNP knobbled it. Thus the patchwork of unsustainable crap we now enjoy. We can thank Turnbull as Comms minister for enabling it

  • RutegerJones Edward Vukovic (@RutegerJones) reported

    @TG_Footy_Tragic Have tried three splitters. One half worked but was beset with problems. The issue I have is that a month or so ago, it was fine. It's only started acting like this since we upgraded the foxtel boxes to IQ4.

  • TonyCat89 Tony Catalano (@TonyCat89) reported

    @PMettrick @ParamountPlusAU Simon hill will never go back,to Foxtel ever again

  • cili_kon Kon Cili (@cili_kon) reported

    @Foxtel My problem with Fox is when they lost the contract to televise all A ligue soccer matches they did not give their members anything in return or if I may point out that they never reduced customers charges either.

  • CQDeano Deano 🇦🇺 (@CQDeano) reported

    @LeroyLouis10 @Foxtel I got the runaround and had to call about three times and then the operator told me she didn’t have approval to cancel it and put me through to someone else and I was on hold for a long long time. And they tried everything to try to keep me. Beyond bullying.

  • carsyetisys george&mildred (@carsyetisys) reported

    @Foxtel Not even if it was free would I have Foxtel or any other Murdoch crap.

  • EurydiceBarzane EurydiceBarzane (@EurydiceBarzane) reported

    @Foxtel I just want to find any streaming service with TCM or Criterion Collection. One of them could do it. I'd pay more for it.

  • TimeCertainRace TimeCertainClock (@TimeCertainRace) reported

    @supercars Any further sup regs for bathurst wanna make sure i dont miss anything being caught out by a schedule change. Will thursday from adelaide be live on @FOXTEL_Help all day or just the supercars practice like it was in nz? Sucks i got foxtel so could watch all the support sessions

  • TimeCertainRace TimeCertainClock (@TimeCertainRace) reported

    @MatthewTweet4 @supercars its foxtel to. theres also big screen issues being worked on.

  • Mouselikemighty A (@Mouselikemighty) reported

    So @Foxtel didn’t do it BUT @DisneyPlus have given AU switches season3 of #MotherlandFortSalem! Now to cancel Foxtel sub & get Disney+ instead. MFS marathon for me today. @DisneyPlus if you pick up the show you would get more $ from fans like me who will join you 4 just this show

  • cuttingmasters Paul Rat Blakey (@cuttingmasters) reported

    @Foxtel I’ve found it’s outstanding value for those of us that enjoy watching endless ads broken by perpetual repeats of programs … that is until the channel is removed with zero adjustment to your bill. Plus once they discontinue your cable you can buy an overpriced iQ5!
