    @Foxtel Fix the bloody delayed commentary on ESPN for the NBA

  • KFMVIEWS KFM (@KFMVIEWS) reported

    @Foxtel What? And help spread more Murdoch bias and bullshit. Gotta be kidding.

  • seanh2604 Sean Hill (@seanh2604) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports It seems all Samoa and Tonga want to do is go straight down the middle. Penrith lads looked like they were lost without Cleary. You need some sort of direction and intellect rather than trying to smash the opposition repeatedly.

  • KFMVIEWS KFM (@KFMVIEWS) reported

    @Foxtel Best thing I’ve done in ditching your crap Murdoch bias, bigotry and RWNJ hubris.

  • JarvFromOz Jarv (@JarvFromOz) reported

    @PeterMags3 That's so bloody stupid. So it's purely just using the Foxtel feed off whatever channel they have "baseball" on. Ridiculous.

  • msblackberrie Miss Blackberrie (@msblackberrie) reported

    @9NewsAUS I have never had foxtel, and after hearing this I will never get it put on.

  • AnthProc Anthony🔴⚫️🏇🏎🏏🎬🤟 (@AnthProc) reported

    @Colvick @tvtonightau Netflix introduced a cheaper subscription with ads, Foxtel/Binge aren’t, they’re just adding ads to their normal subscription price. Poor look that

  • realCarrickRyan Carrick Ryan (@realCarrickRyan) reported

    @BatcaveSlimer @FreoSceptic So why let Foxtel broadcast their games? Surely News Corp has done more damage?

  • garigalAnj 🌏💧Anj of Garigal (@garigalAnj) reported

    @MrKRudd @gdgoz And for those areas with HFC it was awful with Optus threatening us that we would be cut off if we didn’t sign up with NBN. Then the Optus cable didn’t work and ended up using the Foxtel cable. What a mess for very little gain. Other countries much faster

  • glenndunks Glenn Dunks (@glenndunks) reported

    @_theboywizard_ Wasn't the whole point of Binge that it was Foxtel without all of the **** that makes Foxtel unbearable?

  • GaryJoh66552082 Gary John (@GaryJoh66552082) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Plovers swoop as bad as magpies. Absolute pests

  • alib1962 Alison Black (@alib1962) reported

    @FionaKatauskas BBC News Channel not on Foxtel, just BBC World. Uk Sky also on Foxtel. VPN or service that allows you to change DNS works. Or you can get BBC radio.

  • Ev_Fenton Ev Fenton (@Ev_Fenton) reported

    @SEN_Cricket @collinsadam @BryceMcGain18 Foxtel need to use SEN audio, the international TV commentators are just terrible.

  • PostingGeneral real halo lore facts (@PostingGeneral) reported

    @Works_Fudge ALP's plan was to give Telstra $11 billion to disconnect customers from CAN and HFC networks to connect to NBN. Libs just amended the existing agreement to use the networks as well. Telstra's HFC network was used for Foxtel and internet.

    @Hitjoshi9 Us lmao I just find out I had foxtel go and crunchyroll for the last 6 months Had to cancel it

  • BRB_1993 Brad (@BRB_1993) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help The power in my suburb was down for planned maintenance. Ever since my power came back on my Foxtel IQ3 isn’t working. It keeps coming up with an orange light. I’ve restarted the box, unplugged and plugged the HDMI cable back in, and checked the coax cable. Thoughts?

    @realeverywriter I never did but I'm Slowly getting into them since I have been watching Fox Classic on foxtel

  • jackattack19881 Jack Smith (@jackattack19881) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports There has never been a more hated player by the media than DCE. However with Cleary's form (B2B premiership) you would imagine he gets first crack but DCE is only a hair behind.

  • mozau1 Maurie Farrell (@mozau1) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Worse than Maggies. The spur on their foot can do serious damage. And they try to hurt you.

    My mum has Foxtel but had a problem with the box not responding so I told my mum how to reboot her box without actually switching it off as you just hold and press the on/off button on the Foxtel box until you see it rebooting on screen.

  • Raelynne27 Raelynne Eccleston (@Raelynne27) reported

    @ZKING101 @JensenAckles I definitely want to check it out, but don't have Foxtel. I'm trying to find out where else I can catch it down here in Oz?

  • DavidHorrocks1 David Horrocks (@DavidHorrocks1) reported

    Using Cricket Australia’s coverage of WBBL on @Foxtel is very poor. Wrong batters indicated, wrong bowlers, slow scoring. Is this to save money?

  • gothamgrrls known ghoul (@gothamgrrls) reported

    @stuwhomst i don’t think i can screenshot (cheers foxtel go) but i can write down the exact moment for future reference

  • Josh__QLD Josh (@Josh__QLD) reported

    @ESAR2K @dazzgamble1967 @Foxtel But it sucks because it constantly freezes.

  • SteveMolk The Guidefather 👍🇦🇺📺 (@SteveMolk) reported

    Foxtel’s customer retention rate is 85% and churn is down 11 months in a row. “We have a product for every budget.”#Foxtel2023

    @RDC0792 I was watching on espn via foxtel on desktop login

  • 13_A_Side_ Thirteen-A-Side (@13_A_Side_) reported

    @me_dc @steveburgess23 He will never say a word about the AFL, they are way too powerful, it is easy to have a go at Rugby League. He worked for news corp/foxtel for 20 years & he never said a peep against them, until he had left & then went on an anti murdoch tirade. Isn't that right @simonhill1894?

  • neilw101 Neil Wray (@neilw101) reported

    @9NewsAUS That’s the foxtel way of padding profits: that’s why i’ll never, ever, have anything to do with those greedy beggar’s.
