-
EarlswoodXRPMAXI (@eviethedog65) reported@Michael94858047 Holy ****. I canned Foxtel and just subscribed to what i want. Far cheaper. I have Kayo for the AFL.
-
not amy (@utahsocialite) reported@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 💀
-
lady galadriels 🏏 @ mtcg - ishkh khakfe andu null (@miss_reys_mind) reportedWhy the bloody hell has foxtel still got the stupid seinfeld channel ? Why not a friends channel ? Or a married with children channel ? A frasier/cheers channel ? So many better options than that absolutely stupid show having its own channel
-
Cas (@Cas26Harper) reported@lorahmoe Foxtel was originally sold to us as ad free tv more than 20 years ago. A few yrs later we’d sit down to watch something, Didn’t matter what channel. You’d watch a few minutes then there were 10 mins of ads..we were paying $100 a Month for that!?? Absolute rubbish.
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.
-
Mustard (@Curiosooo123) reported@cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.
-
Trent Steel (@TAStanton2323) reported@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.
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@Sam957063743921 @jamesxclean @jarrodwalsh That would've meant a lot, not Foxtel deciding to broadcast his emotional reaction. If you want to see how bad a call that is watch the Crows post of the moment, where they cut Jordan out.
-
Frank (@FrankieJBroph) reported@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!
-
Bianca (@Bianca051985) reported@Michael94858047 Streaming services are ******* ridiculous. Prime is not the same as foxtel obviously but all the payments and then still gotta purchase **** it's ******* bullshit
-
Dan (@Dan90091917) reported@Frumpy45 @SC___Scout Kayo doesn’t have channel numbers like Foxtel does retard
-
Eilegend (@lipsarinna) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel Exactly its even worse MatchBox the production company has been dissolved by NBC 😔 even after Lydia confirmed to me RHUGT down under was going to film
-
🇺🇦Hans Orph🇺🇦 (@HansOrph) reported@Hugh_96 @7plus @Foxtel The Foxtel thing has been dead in my house since Stan took over the Rugby, I've never missed it or looked back
-
Healdyyy (@healdyyy) reported@davisjarrafooty Kayo is dog ****! Foxtel by the length of the Flemington straight
-
InnerQuasar35 (@Pom_Bazooka) reported@intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.
-
Bruno pringle (@jason07218354) reported@FOXNRL The whole game of rugby league is **** now , referee's ruining games and 2 teams that can win the comp , too predictable, get rid of foxtel / kayo it's a joke
-
LeTigre (@LeTigre_12) reportedCan Foxtel turn down Garry Lyons microphone? He does not shut up
-
John Rheinberger (@RheinbergerJohn) reported@gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)
-
Paul Corlson (@pauljc26) reportedThese commercials selling stuff are getting out of hand on @Foxtel, it's bad enough for pay to watch ads now we have to sit through this crap
-
kayla fan of ³³ (@ActingLikeThtKk) reported@gaIaxygang Foxtel go is my ***** she rarely lets me down when i can’t access my set top box 😌
-
JAMpresident (@JAMpresident) reported@HostShinyoku @LesniakAndrew42 @kazakura_22 Game of Thrones is a great example. When it was on air, Australia was a massive pirate of the show. People were downloading torrents. Why? Because the only way to watch was with a ******* Foxtel subscription (cable TV contract). Everyone said **** that.

Mustard (@Curiosooo123) reported@cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.

Mack (@user8680) reported@Foxtel Lol i just cancelled this service, found better on Netflix and paramount,
-
***** (@guidohatzis) reported@RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.
-
PVO (@vanOnselenP) reportedI watch almost zero free-to-air tv these days, but had to watch 9 NRL tonight bc my Foxtel was down. It’s almost unwatchable compared to Foxtel. The call was good enough, but the commentary was mind numbing. Despite the pedigree of those doing it. Surprisingly bad!
-
NotoriousCYP (@NotoriousCYP) reportedSo what channel am I supposed to watch New Zealand vs South Africa on? Wtf am I paying for? @FoxCricket @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help #cricketlikeneverbefore
-
FixTechStuff 🛠️ (@FixTechStuff1) reported@purplepingers The hole for the Foxtel cable was likely drilled through the channel in the roof iron so water drips down when it rains. Happened with my satellite internet, 30 mins after installers left there was a downpour and a literal torrent of water poured out the wall plate into the modem
-
twittaninja (@nathan_s4) reported@FOXTEL_Help hello there seems to be some issues with the paramount + app when trying to begin an episode of Ghosts (US version) it gets stuck after the preview has finished and as well if you skip the previews, not sure if it occurs with other show or not, please 🙏
-
Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported@matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?
