-
Uncanny Ryan (@RyanSimmonds23) reported@7AFL Whats up with the signal? Its stuttering but all fine on foxtel
-
Mei-Ling Day (@Meilingday) reported@JFalleiro Jeepers. I try to cancel my foxtel and I have the retention department sending me emails, and them giving me deals I don’t want over the phone! I can’t escape them! I feel sad hearing all this. I genuinely do.
-
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.
-
Lexi (@InternetPiglet) reported@tresantes Sidenote i think i might be the reason foxtel now makes you sign up for every channel to get the documentary ones at all now, because i was watching that **** for like 10 hours a day for years and only paying $10/mth, it had to have been a loss for them
-
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.
-
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
-
Cats_Can_Trade (@CatsTrade) reported@Michael94858047 I ditched Foxtel at least 10 years ago. Never again!
-
Lloyd Duff (@Mike09127415) reported@LolCowBasement @LolCowBasement You could say Techy I used a piece of myself to make you the ultimate cable box. Yes it picks up FOXTEL. It aims for anything but anything FOX or CBS NETWORK related is a given. You worked for CBS over the Castle hill slide so you left a vocal fingerprint
-
Glenn Wall (@GlennWall17) reported@MikeCarlton01 Well the Israelis having a problem Bibi promised Don he gets Gaza they get the West Bank But they need the USA to take the hard hits for them. So now it storming the beaches as a ex foxtel sports commentator decided to throw the Geneva Convention in the bin as to restrictive.
-
Garry (@garry1951b) reported@Quartermain10 @7AFL Just as bad on @Foxtel / Kayo.
-
***** (@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.
-
TimeCertainClock (@TimeCertainRace) reported@matt__nicholls Yeah sucks. Think foxtel/kayo should focus on getting more sport leave the movies/tv to the streaming sites. Cos fta cant to do sports well. And having sport split over multiple site sucks. Would be so bad if all tennis was on one all motorsport on another but when sports are over 2 or 3 it sucks.
-
Throwaway Account (@ThrowawayA55057) reported@CurttiMagurtti Was never a Disney channel person we watched Cartoon network and Boomerang when we had Foxtel.
-
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
-
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 😌
-
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.
-
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. Radio….well that’s ****. Shut them down as well.
-
John Smith (@JohnSmith28378) reported@SnoogThe @FOXNRL @Foxtel Vossy sounds legit sick. Cronk is awful though
-
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
-
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!

Mr Boxing (@boxing1616) reported@EverythingBoxi2 @BOXINGnBBQ Advised by Spencer brown and mick Francis. Sold down the river for a few quid. Poor Jai. Just needed to take the usyk route. Get on foxtel. Fight, CBS, Havk and maybe Yarde. He’s a star. He’s taken the short route and sold out

COOPS 😎 (@sportandracing) reported@SnoogThe @FOXNRL @Foxtel So bad. How does Voss get a gig? Baffling

MaxibonHR_YT (@Maxibonhr_YT) reported@tresantes I had Foxtel growing up (it was pretty crap ngl), and even we didn’t get it because the channel package with HBO was insanely expensive
-
Alex Sar #DonTheSash (@alexmatthewsar) reported@NetballAust Well done to Netball Australia for a historic TV Rights Deal with the Nine Network for the next Five years and taking it off Foxtel.
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported@Timrides1966 @LaurenHeraldSun Research DAZN some more. They have a DAZN bet app OS incorporating I believe their streaming service & gambling in the same place. I expect to see a future where Foxtel only does sports. You may (depending on the Govt at the time) be able to bet on sports via the Kayo Fox app.
-
Jackamo (@JackamoTellEm) reported@Michael94858047 wait people still have foxtel in 2026? I thought that **** died out years ago
-
Michael Wilde (@michael_wilde1) reported@myco54896926 @Blazebit9 @RealEmirHan Unfortunately Foxtel (Murdoch's) had the exclusive rights in my country at the time and it looked **** and you couldn't even buy it from someone like Apple until a year later and it was only in HD. I had to buy the last season on an Ultra HD Bluray. Then i could appreciated it
