-
Dariyen Jones (@DetroitLemons99) reported@FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it
-
RationalMan74 (@RationalMan74) reported@onepercentas Why does it even exist? Why do Foxtel not simply offer a sports only package? Why does it seem to run off different tech to the Foxtel app which has zero issues?
-
InnerQuasar35 ξ¨ (@Pom_Bazooka) reported@intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.
-
Mel (@its_me_mel_xx) reportedI'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. π€¬π€¬

ralph horowitz (@rtralphy) reportedConfident prediction The price of Foxtel and Kayo will spike considerably, and it will be justified based on the government gambling ads crackdown Quinella: Never waste a crisis into law of unintended consequences GR π

ash π¦ (@lovronolastname) reported@tresantes omg this reminds me of how for like 2 years my dad would pay for foxtel specifically when game of thrones was airing and then cancel it until eventually he gave up and started pirating it π

Joan of Faaarrk (@JFaaarrk) reported@Foxtel ive noticed that alot of movies on the movie channel are old and the HBO app on foxtel always crashes, glitches and sometimes just doesnt work
-
David Horrocks (@DavidHorrocks1) reported@Foxtel I sent an email to Foxtel and tried to make a follow up phone call. But the live chat cut out. My wife passed away on Friday and I have no interest in television so I want to cancel my account.

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.

Craig davos (@davos_craig) reportedWhats everyones issue with kayo ? My foxtel doesn't miss a beat π#AFLpowerdons

Sam (@samster99_) reportedFirst world problem but looks like Foxtel choosing not to show the first 10 mins of the Freo game because of the delay in the other game? #aflfreodees

Jackamo (@JackamoTellEm) reported@Michael94858047 wait people still have foxtel in 2026? I thought that **** died out years ago

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 ?
-
Franky Kugisaki (@FrankyKugisaki) reported@krzyasf4u @Vin_cent00 Nah just never watched this. I was a Ben 10 kid back in the day plus only my Grandma had Foxtel so I had no access to this show
-
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)
-
John (@jt_melb) reportedHow the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback
-
Ethel May Smith (@EthelMaySmith) reported@JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!
-
Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported@Ryandally08 Perhaps 7,9,10 and SBS and WIN too who all get a subsidy and tax breaks to broadcast. I mean even Foxtel got $30 mill perhaps shut them down too. Radioβ¦.well thatβs ****. Shut them down as well.
-
lady galadriels π @ 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
-
catherine (@CathP82) reported@AdyLady9969 Where I work the residents had there foxtel cut off & now if they came in past last November they only get 1 meal choice & can't have even gave a glass of wine unless they pay the extra to go classic service . These head office people are just money hungry & do not care

Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
-
King Pauly (@SirSonicPauly) reportedI don't understand how company's like telsta, foxtel etc Keep increasing prices but you get no extra value or better service or anything. Bills keep going up and the government just wants to tax us more and does nothing about it.
-
EarlswoodXRPMAXI (@eviethedog65) reported@Michael94858047 Holy ****. I canned Foxtel and just subscribed to what i want. Far cheaper. I have Kayo for the AFL.
