  • Rossk1007 Ross (@Rossk1007) reported

    @Mr_CunnyFunt Ive had it for about about 6 weeks no problems with picture or stream. Ive got that binge and Netflix all HD for cheaper than my Foxtel subscription

  • nudder12 🤠(Insert Name Here) (@nudder12) reported

    @SkySportsF1 Not on @Foxtel Australia. Letting us down again!

  • nicola1charles Nicola Charles (@nicola1charles) reported

    The left are trying to cancel the term cancel-culture as it shines a light on their idiocy. I accidentally flicked past Hannibal on Foxtel last night just in time to see the Antagonist lift off a skull & feed a man his own brain. But cancel Seuss sure Hollywood hypocrite elites.

  • oursharedvalues Amanda 🌱 🕯 (@oursharedvalues) reported

    @TonyKoc69285191 I won’t have Foxtel, Sky,or any Murdoch publication in the house, and never have. He won’t see a brass cent from me. Happy to hear I am not alone and that the failure to buy what he is selling does eventually have an impact.

  • MatGeee Mat G (@MatGeee) reported

    @kayosports_help any plans to improve refresh rate? Live NRL looks **** at the moment. I just switched from Foxtel and it’s not even close to the same picture quality. Seems ok for normal tv shows like NRL 360. And before you ask I can stream perfect UHD/HDR on Netflix, hbo etc.

  • Baz378 Basil Subh (@Baz378) reported

    @Foxtel signal keeps dropping out due to bad weather. That's 3 days in a row now when they are showing Justice League @snydercut that it happens. Just f'ing put it your On Demand so we can watch it without interruption!! Jeez! #foxtelfail

  • civilengineer civilengineer (@civilengineer) reported

    @kymtje I spent 90 minutes yesterday with Telstra website, phone and eventually internet chat to make a final payment for Foxtel and cancel the subscription, my last link with Telstra. They flipped me to Foxtel re return of the box. What a disaster... probably worse. Still unresolved.

  • TimmyFrogmouth Timmy Frogmouth (@TimmyFrogmouth) reported

    @Foxtel The only reason we have Foxtel is to watch the football. If they didn’t have the A-League we’d cancel tomorrow.

  • therealslav84 SLAV (@therealslav84) reported from Cairns, State of Queensland

    @Halit95429397 @Foxtel I was a customer for over 15 years. After 15 years due to my travel forgot to pay my account I was 1 day late. No empathy no care and would not drop the late fee. So I cancelled. That was full Platinum IQ4, with 4 boxes and nbn. Their reply.... we dont care,

  • KristySed Kristy Sedlarczuk (@KristySed) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia

    @sistalma @Foxtel I think after the AFL wraps up this year, I will cut it back or cancel. $119 a month for platinum & they are offering new customers at half price. I reckon of have had Foxtel for 13 years or more. Not worth it any more.

  • 9_Moley The Mole (@9_Moley) reported

    @ryanseagull @Foxtel Then why do you follow me, you poor pathetic individual???

  • oldfella1975 🏳️‍🌈 bails (@oldfella1975) reported

    Wish Foxtel would stop crapping on about the fact that #SVG has a broken collar bone

  • TomFulop Tom Fulop-Lover of all things SPACE 🇦🇺 (@TomFulop) reported

    @josuhakeegan @ET_Exists @spacenerd19 It's a cable service. However they do have an app called Foxtel Go which can be played on any device and streamed to your smart TV. It's Josh's lucky day because I'm about to dm him my login so he can access it.

  • LindaJ666 Linda (@LindaJ666) reported

    @JonDorrity @Foxtel Yep, same. Customer for 16years. Had to reduce my package to save money, they offered me nothing and then the monthly price went up again anyway 😡

  • fiiingers Fred (@fiiingers) reported

    @Foxtel Foxtel is a rip. Same shows repeated . Over priced . Same ads over and over again. Streaming services far better. Dont do telstra foxtel. Foxtel says call telstra foxtel says call telstra. Personal ecpereince Notice how u cant down grade ur package on line

  • samandmish Ⓜ️ICHELLE & SIⓂ️ON (@samandmish) reported

    The rain is so heavy atm we have now lost.our Foxtel signal 😬

  • Theretributor 💧🔥⚡️Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported

    @joshgnosis Bolt should have thanked his boss, Rupert Murdoch and Tony Abbott for the terrible NBN he received in the first place. High speed internet was a threat to his Stone Age Foxtel satellite delivered crap.

  • BazzaBulldog Barry Webster (@BazzaBulldog) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I rang this morning. Your customer service is appalling! I pay $25 per month for Kayo & queried if you could offer something similar. $59 was the cheapest! Can you see why people who only want sport won’t sign up with Foxtel? I’m NOT interested in the basic package.

  • Halit95429397 Halit (@Halit95429397) reported

    @Foxtel New costumers gets the best deals loyal customer deserved that to,but Fox tell operate mysterious way.

  • drlizzieskinner Dr Lizzie Skinner (@drlizzieskinner) reported

    @Foxtel Please stop advertising on my feed. I will not now not ever support #MurdochMedia

  • tebbytater Ichie Rashburn (@tebbytater) reported

    @Foxtel nice. (Read: not actually nice, **** Foxtel)

  • ryanseagull racer (@ryanseagull) reported

    @9_Moley @Foxtel You’ve never cared about reporting facts. Or footy. So don’t worry. Just turn in your copy.

  • cbpcoyle Craig Brian Peter Coyle (@cbpcoyle) reported

    ..@Foxtel down due to rain i assume panic mode got into @kayosports signed up managed to watch 20mins out of a total 40mins of 1st half due to buffering ffs #NRLbulldogspanthers

  • AcAussie AC (@AcAussie) reported

    @Foxtel Ads. Repeated content. Happiest day when I got rid of the damn box and got over feeling stupid for paying for rubbish for so many years.

  • Chaserholic Rehan (@Chaserholic) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

  • pinstripe1234 Michael Winkler (@pinstripe1234) reported

    @Foxtel I called Foxtel for my elderly disabled parents recently. They pay nearly double this. Foxtel refused to fix their package. They pay over $100 and don't even have IQ. They use an old box. I'm going to teach them how to use streaming services. I'm so sick of this exploitation.
