FOXTEL Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Lori Marshall (@IdealLoriM) reportedTruly terrible coverage with sound dropouts at the most important moments tonight Foxtel. Not worth the $113/month we pay to simply watch the game. #AFLDonsPies
-
for whom the jelly rolls (@CosmoKramer1299) reported@FOXTEL_Help I am currently unable to stream the Freo-Hawks AFL game from last night. When I select stream, it is a 2 minute episode of In The Back Pocket instead of the game. Can you fix this please?
-
Joshua (@shiggy74) reportedWhy the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
-
Jason I (@jason_isaia) reportedGreg Swann should come out in this AFL360 interview and say the biggest issue of the week wasnt the umpiring. It was the coverage of Anzac Day with no crowd noise from Foxtel. #AFL #AFL360
-
LeTigre (@LeTigre_12) reportedCan Foxtel turn down Garry Lyons microphone? He does not shut up
-
Carlisle Reid (@carlisle_reid) reported@thegabriel72 All you people that think this idiot War leader has any credibility please write down his back ground . Grunt in the army And Foxtel news So he’s a great asset to your country Mans a complete bullshit artist …
-
John the Baptist (@JohntheBapt1ser) reported@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.
-
King Pauly (@SirSonicPauly) reportedI don't understand how company's like telsta, foxtel etc Keep increasing prices but you get no extra value or better service or anything. Bills keep going up and the government just wants to tax us more and does nothing about it.
-
Phillip Smith (@csnphl) reported@FOXNRL turn up the commentry in Wests v Parra We cant hear them over crowd noise Foxtel treating customers like **** again
-
Mustard (@Curiosooo123) reported@cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.
-
NotoriousCYP (@NotoriousCYP) reportedSo what channel am I supposed to watch New Zealand vs South Africa on? Wtf am I paying for? @FoxCricket @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help #cricketlikeneverbefore
-
Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported@Sam957063743921 @jamesxclean @jarrodwalsh That would've meant a lot, not Foxtel deciding to broadcast his emotional reaction. If you want to see how bad a call that is watch the Crows post of the moment, where they cut Jordan out.
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@CraigTong__ @wayne_kag @AlboMP You ever tried to cancel Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel?
-
Dale in Perth 🔴⚪⚫ (@DaleTho45919445) reported@kayosports / @Foxtel why can’t we hear the crowd with your commentary? It sounds like you’re not even there!! Absolutely terrible!! It’s ANZAC Day and we’re stuck with inferior products
-
2 Passionate Blue Baggers (@2_Blue_Baggers) reported@adriansal80 @SC___Scout You got a foxtel box or the streaming version of foxtel? Cause I can’t handle Kayo. The streams are awful. It’s delayed and the app is beyond pathetic.
-
Scotty 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 (@Scotter68) reported@NorthBankNadim @SkySports I totally agree with this that’s why I’ve pulled the pin on my Sky subscription recently as they have stopped low with this type of hater …Sky sports news has definitely gone down hill I even used to watch it in the 90s in Australia on foxtel
-
Darren Beale (@DarrenBeale2) reported@matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?
-
Andy (@Andya1oh) reportedF ….me @nrl , u are ruining the game , so your not allowed to challenge for a kick , time to turn the tv off and cancel @Foxtel ,
-
Greg1956 (@Greg19562) reported@Ryandally08 I want sky news detached from foxtel dog ****!
-
Miles (@Michael1953_202) reported@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 .
-
Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported@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.
-
John Rheinberger (@RheinbergerJohn) reported@gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)
-
Gary Stainton (@staintong) reported@matt__nicholls Perhaps DAZN's strategy is just to run out the existing contracts while DAZN pockets the subscription and advertising revenue, then eventually shut Kayo/ Foxtel down.
-
Camorae5196 (@camorae5196) reported@realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.
-
Glenny (@TheGlenny1) reportedGot 500 channels on foxtel. Only channel not working sky 1 Wtf is going on @SkyRacingAU ******* retarded Black screen for last 2 hrs
-
slw (@JardarReistr) reported@utahsocialite @Foxtel The mini revival they had the cast were awful. Ahaha you had the lady who left half way through. And the other filler people.
-
