    @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

    Confident 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 👍

    @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.

    @Foxtel can someone explain to me why I can stream ANY movie on ANY streaming service no issues. I can play MMO's at 60fps, no issues. But, I cannot watch a simple game of NRL without you guys killing my viewing pleasure with 2 minutes of game time, and 5 minutes of buffering?

    @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.

    @inthebarberry @CattardSlim It’s owned by Fox, so why is anyone to expect? Ironically, Foxtel (basically the country’s biggest cable network and owned by Murdoch) has Sky News and CNN on consecutive channels. Go figure.

    @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.

    @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!

    @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.

    How the actual does Foxtel/Binge take The Daily Show away from Paramount+? **** this ****, no wonder torrents are making a major comeback

    @ump21 @MWL152 Get foxtel. No issues whatsoever plus heaps of other channels.

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    Helped my 94 year old neighbour and I don't think i could have had a more rude and displeasing experience with the pieces of crap working in the @Foxtel off shore call centre. How dare they speak to anyone let alone our most vulnerable in the fashion they do. #Foxtel

    @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

    @AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot

    @intothecrevasse I never watched it but saw the ads regularly back when I had TheComedyChannel as part of my Foxtel package.

    @kayosports_help moved from Foxtel to Kayo. Mistake. Rarely had an issue with Foxtel, more dropouts and circle of death with Kayo in one month vs 25 years with Foxtel. Running NBN500. If there’s some simple fix let me know. Otherwise, I’ll bank a refund and return to Foxtel.

    @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

    I'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. 🤬🤬

    one of the main reasons i persist with foxtel is to watch #redv games. saints are really tempting me in to giving it up. if it wasnt for cricket and a few shows i really like it would be gone cmon, @NRL_Dragons , get your **** together
