    @Krisalis87 @Missamy231 No. We watched it last week. Not foxtel. Would never ever watch anything on that. We had to get a free trial. Maybe not Stan - binge?

  • Elfvandel20 James Webb Space Telescope stan account (@Elfvandel20) reported

    @johnb78 Yeah Foxtel is in bad financial state so it's been cutting back and thus the product suffers.

  • _mitch092 Mitch (@_mitch092) reported

    @StanSportAU announcing a pay per view service to rival @Foxtel, I wonder if the latter wants to come pick up their box from my house.. customer service has continued to slide over the years as well

    @Foxtel - to help with people working from home, please offer free upgrade on all packages or at least let us select our own packages without adding all of packages especially us on Foxtel Now.

    The first night I decide I’m gonna fully invest is South Africa vs India and Foxtel loses signal to the match

  • rcssmedasmith Rob Smith (@rcssmedasmith) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Thats a terrible effort by the #Scorchers

  • Veritas_KW Veritas on KW (@Veritas_KW) reported

    Stan launching a PPV offering is bad news for Foxtel's Main Event. Especially, if Stan can secure regular PPV content Foxtel's passed on. I wouldn't be surprised if non-WWE wrestling content (esp. promotions who can supply content 52 weeks a year) are now on Stan's radar.

  • AndrewPHopkins5 AndrewPH (@AndrewPHopkins5) reported

    It hasn’t rained since around 10am this morning in Pakenham, but right now, it is smashing down and the thunder and lightning is crazy. Can’t even watch cricket except my phone because Foxtel is not working because of the weather.

  • rovingblonde Andrea (@rovingblonde) reported

    @Telstra Thank u. She had valid birth certificate, & valid Medicare card. Plus pension card, Électoral card ID & others. & is a long- term Telstra customer (for internet & previously Foxtel for many years). Was refused @ store & call centre, & after escalation @ call centre. #Telstrafail

  • wineloverfather Wineloverfather (@wineloverfather) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Fix it now! Or I'm reporting to @acccgovau

  • maxxjensen Max Jensen (@maxxjensen) reported

    We could cancel all subscriptions to NC & NEC until refugees are released? Stop watching Sky news, channel 9, Foxtel, Binge, etc.

  • lathiat Trent Lloyd 🦆 (@lathiat) reported

    @simonhackett I had 2 channel problems this month.. the brand new Foxtel iQ5 for some reason won't connect on channel 36 or 40 which Unifi had defaulted to but works on all other channels. Band steering (turned on by the 'optimise' setting) was preventing it from working when it tried 2.4GHz.
