    @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!

    @gothedees36 @cmkusher @kayosports Hasn’t Foxtel shutdown the cable service, ie only new internet connections?

    @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?

    @DStyleBoxing MR would of resigned Opetaia, especially with Foxtel deal in play, poor timing, Jai on Foxtel would of been perfect for both. Mick Francis months ago said MR did not deliver unification, they were moving on, see if someone could deliver, Francis kept on mentioning Turki promises

    @nrlphysio @kayosports This is why I kept the @Foxtel box and avoid the poor service you get with streaming

    @SulloReport also kayo as a service is no longer worth $40/mth or whatever it is now 😭 terrible reliability, with no support for F1 TV features unless you pay Murdoch even more money through Foxtel, and graphical issues half the time...

    @1116sen @SENBreakfast The issue was that foxtel lost the sync to the clock. The clock was still running on Channel 7 and so was still running for the timekeepers

    @Croccers @nikkivioletgwen @F1Media No, my problem is how expensive it is to access the one single sport I actually care about watching live, when there are better streaming options in other countries, my problem is Kayo/Foxtel having the exclusive rights then continually ripping us off with overpriced streaming

    @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

    @AlboMP Please make Foxtel number one target! They make it very difficult to cancel and make you go through a lengthy phone call. No online or postal option to cancel.

    @tresantes Not to mention it wasn't even 1080p and had some kind of anti-piracy black strip running up one side. It led to a great article in one of the papers: "Australia doesn't have a piracy problem. Australia has a Foxtel problem".

    @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

    Where's the ***? (@ogsubtlemenace) reported

    @onepercentas There was a period around December 2025, where I couldn't access my account whilst I was in Far North QLD due to licencing issues. I was being redirected to a Foxtel subscription. Which considering Kayo is now $46/month, would possibly have been better value.

    @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 💀
