  • GeoffSpinmonkey Spinmonkey (@GeoffSpinmonkey) reported

    @PaulMeekPerth why do they waste $100s of $1000s on daily news alerts and news clipping services then Execs even get access Foxtel as part of the job to help them monitor the media

  • rustedon1962 TeeBee (@rustedon1962) reported

    @10NewsFirstMelb @Carltontowin @DanielAndrewsMP Well its better than seeing the LNP giving Rupert Murdoch $40,000,000 of tax payers money on the pretence of broadcasting womens sports on Foxtel. A privately owned service we have to pay to watch.

  • cenobite_pepe The Cenobite (@cenobite_pepe) reported

    @Foxtel Looks awful, I will be sure to ignore this exists

  • prgygrgy chick shatkinson (@prgygrgy) reported

    @BrendonClive @ToddJDavey Sold out games, foxtel television deals - these things make money. If you have a problem with netball getting about 7% of what Vic budget to keep the AFL GF in Melbourne then you've got bigger personal issue to concern yourself with

  • GhostAssasin27 James Gordon (@GhostAssasin27) reported

    @Foxtel Tim the vax pusher no thanks he sucks.

  • OrbAgency Orb Agency (@OrbAgency) reported

    Further to this, @foxtel - your telephone IVR voice sounds like she has taken too much Prozac - worst PDA ever...

  • SBT_WSW SBT_WSW (@SBT_WSW) reported

    @BillyDiehm Even when it was in Foxtel which a majority of the population has, it wasn’t in the forefront. Have to convert young players into fans. The lack of government funding is a joke, for the biggest game in our country by a long distance the lack of financial support is ridiculous

  • RodHodgson1 Rod Hodgson (@RodHodgson1) reported

    @Foxtel Hey Foxtel, The recording over the past few weeks have been have been horrible. Nothing recorded is the actual show. Extreme Wedding Au is a muddy doco, Sydney Weekend is V8 Supercars, Travel Guides is some thing I don’t know. What is it that I’m paying for?

  • Janlines10 Jan lines (@Janlines10) reported

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help #USELESS TWO HOURS PF NONSENSE, REPEATED VERIFICATIONS AND EACH TIME SILENCE AND START AGAIN! BERN DOING THIS FOR FOUR YEARS!! FAULTY BOX & BROADBAND ISSUES!! UNACCEPTABLE

  • TurfAir Adam Robertson (@TurfAir) reported

    @JayJay91341991 @StevePriceMedia Remember when Morrison gave $40,000,000.00 to Foxtel in 2021 as an incentive to show more woman’s sport. Never happened. I remember.

  • BillFox2 Bill Fox (@BillFox2) reported

    @Brad59414697 @MyFirstCousin No complaints from rwm when the LNP gave $50m to Murdoch media for improved regional newspaper coverage then shut them down, $40m to Fox Sports for higher profile to woman’s sport and another $10m to Foxtel to promote women’s sport. That’s a $100m donation to another billionaire

  • AngryNonni Angry Nonni (@AngryNonni) reported

    @corybernardi Gina could have solved the problem by disassociating herself from her father's abhorrent opinions. She just took her ball and went home. Any opinion re LNP giving $40mil to Foxtel to televise women's sport?

  • csnphl Phillip Smith (@csnphl) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help what have you guys done now 75% of my channels have disapoeared I xan even watch the races Fix it up

  • brutal1966 Stuart (@brutal1966) reported

    @ObservationsG Did you have the same issue when the Transport Accident Commission were sponsoring AFL teams and the TAC Cup? Or Quit was sponsoring AFL teams? All were corporatised arms of Government. Hawthorn get 20 million off Tas Gov, Federal LNP gave Foxtel 40 million.

  • colonelhogans Rick (@colonelhogans) reported

    Murdoch media. Thumbs up for $830M stadium in Sydney. (They’ve financial interests in NRL). Thumbs down for $15M for female netball players. Dead quiet about $30m to support netball from former Morrison government to Foxtel. Th hypocrisy never ends.

  • AlsyAlsy Aletha Wilkinson (@AlsyAlsy) reported

    I’m a Telstra, Woolworths, Medibank and Optus customer. Also an annual Taronga Zoo pass holder. Has anyone checked security at Foxtel lately?

  • TheDanBarrett Dan Barrett - 43 days until Avatar: Way of Water (@TheDanBarrett) reported

    Interesting to see the new Foxtel/NBCU deal means that the subscription Foxtel news svod FLASH will now have MSNBC and NBC News Now on platform. Until now MSNBC was only available in Aus on Fetch TV. NBC News Now is new down under.

  • ravensrockmusic The Raven’s Rock 💭 (@ravensrockmusic) reported

    @smeagolrock420 @mjrowland68 @tvtonightau Your arguments are stupid. It doesn’t include SKY which is shown in every pub and club. Kayo is not included at all - it’s a Foxtel product and neither are on that TVTonight number. You’re talking out your ***.

  • EmergencyBK Emergency&BushfireKits (@EmergencyBK) reported

    @CarolynMartinu2 Yep, she did however pork barrel $100 mill in sports grants to LNP electorates & helped in giving $10mill to Foxtel to help with women's sports, with no contract or requirements, just here, have $10mill. Projection & hypocrisy gold.

  • electricrabbit0 Matt Quinn (@electricrabbit0) reported

    @Foxtel As always, existing customers get left behind. Business loves customer loyalty, but hates to show any loyalty back.

  • Gillian75871887 GB (@Gillian75871887) reported

    @philmupp1 Since she irritates you and others so much, why watch her or any of them. Don't forget FOXTEL is owned by Murdoch & if they don't support his line of thinking, they get sacked.

  • RalphMo55017559 Ralph Mouth (@RalphMo55017559) reported

    @bradpsychology Umm what commercial network do you watch the Super League Netball on, 9 dumped it in 2021 because of poor rating returns for the cost. Ohhh thats right News Ltd's Foxtel & Kayo.

  • rustedon1962 TeeBee (@rustedon1962) reported

    @R_Impiombato And the LNP gave FORTY MILLION of our tax payer dollars to Foxtel for women's sport. Where ******** is it? Just have a sook little man with teddy bear

  • its_ella_bella ella_bella✨ (@its_ella_bella) reported

    @heidimur Does that mean Guy would cut the budget to support regional Victoria? It's Visit Victoria that's paying for Netball Australia not the Department of Health. Also don't remember Guy being so vocal about sports funding when feds gave $40m to Foxtel.

  • DuchesssNewTown Sarah Ferguson (@DuchesssNewTown) reported

    @JohnRaczkowski5 @Foxtel I believe several of the EPL teams have their own subscription channels - my uncle (a Chelsea supporter) took this up, dumped Foxtel and has never looked back with about $90 / month extra in his pocket.

  • IllyBocean illy bocean (@IllyBocean) reported

    @hayesy316 whenever i encounter foxtel in the wild i’m stunned! it’s just **** reruns over and over with the same number of ads free TV always had!

  • Dismayed12 Dismayed (@Dismayed12) reported

    @GlexxLuth @minermatters @SkyNewsAust Did you complain about the $40 million the morrisin coalition of corruption gave to foxtel? NO you say. sit down and shut up cooker.,

  • semmsy72 Eahmesy (@semmsy72) reported

    @deayton_kerry @SquizzSTK And much of that coverage was still only available on the foxtel paid subscription service anyway!! Australians still couldn’t see what they paid for!

  • CartoJJ1 CartoJJ (@CartoJJ1) reported

    @Brad59414697 And FOXTEL got 30 million to support Women sport and put it in their bank account ? Where was Tina when that broke, as usual nowhere ?
