  • matthewgeddes70 Matthew Geddes (@matthewgeddes70) reported

    @DinosaurLeague Don't think Foxtel or Channel Nine would have liked Broncos going down a couple of years back.

  • sue_mcgorlick Sue McGorlick (@sue_mcgorlick) reported

    @AusGardner @Foxtel Never. Not 1 penny to Murdoch

  • JugadorSydney Jugador Apuestas (🎲)🇦🇺 (@JugadorSydney) reported

    @Foxtel Why does #Foxtel not provide same deals for long standing customers! Vote a protest people or cancel #Foxtel!

  • cpt081 Chris (@cpt081) reported

    @Foxtel Don't be fooled. Foxtel is a nightmare. Customer service is ****-over a hour to speak to a consultant, who is not trained properly, lack ability to communicate (usually English not 1st language),only knows a few things. It a horror story. Cancelled Service

  • _LPCowling LP Cowling.  (@_LPCowling) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Not being half dead after a concussion will help Yeo this time around, too.

  • Chrismu30875787 Chris mullins (@Chrismu30875787) reported

    @Foxtel Cut out the ads it's all crap Especially when witching wrestling too man sheesh

  • WoodyattDean Dean Woodyatt (@WoodyattDean) reported

    @wpasterfield @Foxtel Just ask politely to log a formal complaint if they've provided faulty equipment and you can prove its not fit then rather than pay the ombudsman referral fee to resolve the complaint as you're not satisfied with the resolution they will offer to send you a replacement

  • MarkC71710524 MarkC (@MarkC71710524) reported

    @Foxtel Over priced crap that's going broke.

  • stuck_toilet AJK (@stuck_toilet) reported

    @HuwTindall Also, RA turned down Foxtel's $300 million deal over 5 years and are now complaining about the large difference in broadcast deals between the 2 countries and now wants a share of NZR's revenue. He basically wants NZR to share their money to cover RA's incompetence.

  • spdern_ Aspen/Arion 🏳️‍⚧️ (@spdern_) reported

    @Foxtel @NoodlesBotRemy oi foxtel i wanna be on the jury wtf @Foxtel

  • skyowl_ Skyowl_ (@skyowl_) reported

    @Foxtel It’s interesting seeing the people that support Murdock. I’m presuming that they don’t care too much about the things he does. It takes all kinds!

  • PeteWil52408518 Pete Williams (@PeteWil52408518) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Brooks got a very good back ended deal because Tigers Management panicked when they lost Teddy, Moses & Woods. Those 3 left because Tigers Management appointed rubbish coaches & the retention didn’t see the value in them soon enough! Tried 2 low ball them. Thus we r still ****!

  • wheelsta22 Andrew (@wheelsta22) reported

    @wpasterfield @Foxtel I had a similar issue years ago. They never ended up replacing and I had to purchase one at Westfield. No longer a customer. The incompetence of their call centre is beyond compare.

  • lisasshoes 𝓛𝓲𝓼𝓪 𝓢𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓷 (@lisasshoes) reported

    My @foxtel service bundled with @Telstra won’t work. I’ve called @telstra 4 times today & I still have NO service. Technical support is now unavailable- I guess the techies have knocked off for the day. I’m a long term paying customer, no service provided. - this is pathetic.

  • yinyangman69 Sir Render Monkey (@yinyangman69) reported from Launceston, State of Tasmania

    @clarkycj I feel like this could be the plot to a very bad Christopher Nolan movie. Probably a Foxtel exclusive.

  • zammutty MLZ Team zammit (@zammutty) reported

    @wpasterfield @Foxtel Cancel them mate I was the same as u mate

  • coolcatoscar oscar (@coolcatoscar) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help So What HELP is it you people do

  • skyowl_ Skyowl_ (@skyowl_) reported

    @Foxtel Do you want to support an organisation that appears to be actively trying to turn societies all around the world against each other? If you do then at least realise what your doing and admit it to yourself when you finance them!

  • gragra94728133 gragra (@gragra94728133) reported

    @Foxtel Unfortunately, now every time I see Sam Neill I associate him with Foxtel and by association, with Rupert Murdoch. Great actor, but I now have trouble enjoying his performances.

  • johnmetalftw john888 (@johnmetalftw) reported

    That tradie deodorant commercial is the most **** gay **** ever. Makes me puke. Doesn’t shock me that **** Foxtel would show it

  • ron_dparadise Ron D'Paradise (@ron_dparadise) reported

    @wpasterfield @Foxtel I had same problem, then nice ******* phone said don’t worry about the new remote control as you are due an upgrade of your box. Best result I’ve ever had with them

  • Bay49Wanderers Bay 49 Wanderers (@Bay49Wanderers) reported

    How bad and fuzzy is channel @9NewsAUS nothing compared to Foxtel’s clarity #Origin19

  • MeganTellTriage Meցαn (@MeganTellTriage) reported

    @heidimur @bill_dobell $600,000 p/a + unLimited T&E Not a bad pay check for culling off thousands of Victorians. Then again I watched a crime show on Foxtel once and the going rate for a hit man was $80K per body. Maybe the Commander did get short changed!

  • AnthBeaini Anthony Beaini (@AnthBeaini) reported

    @ACurrentAffair9 The only reason they need support is because of **** wit media journos like yourselves! Have a good look at what you’re actually doing all for a god damn story for a show that no body even watches anymore except for 70 year olds that can’t get their foxtel working.

  • coolcatoscar oscar (@coolcatoscar) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Arvo. Have IQ3 have developed a problem of delay between remote and unit. unit 8 years old? tried a newer remote same delay. new batts same. Your thoughts. delay up to 2/5 seconds at times

  • jamamio Jamamio (@jamamio) reported

    @wpasterfield @Foxtel Just tell them your set top box has stopped working, and when you try to fix it, tell them the remote is unresponsive, they'll send you a whole new kit! (maybe)

  • beneggins1 Foxytester (@beneggins1) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I am having broadband issues can I call 131 999

  • iamnotbatman01 matt (@iamnotbatman01) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help @telstra @NBNCo is there an outage in elsternwick today? No internet or Foxtel cable since about 8:30- 9am today. I am aware of united energy doing work in near location.

  • planet_tenant Planet tenant (@planet_tenant) reported

    @Foxtel Sorry Foxtel, try facebook, Twitter don't seem to give a **** about Murdoch businesses

  • paulmacca1967 Paul McMahon (@paulmacca1967) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help our Foxtel remote no longer has a working number 1. Making it hard to change certain channels. Is there a quick fix option to fix this issue?
