    It’s farcical that in the year 2021, the Australian Cricket team is playing an international game and it is not televised. Money hungry boards need to sort their **** out, and Foxtel can’t claim to be the ‘home of Cricket’ if they don’t show any of the damn sport live #BANvAUS

    @roglurveshockey @newjerseydamo @NHL Problem here I think, is that espn is part of Foxtel.

    If they want 80% vaccination rates @ScottMorrisonMP better cancel Foxtel and sky News and all other Murdoch gutter trash #thedrum #VaccineSh1tShow #MurdochGutterMedia

    @Foxtel @accc you're probs sick of me tweeting you about them as much as they are me having to do them every fortnight to help solve their issues. Please investigate and fix the ethics and morals of foxtel.

    @Carpo34 @brendansfoley How do Foxtel show windies Pakistan and rsa Ireland but not Australia playing t20s. It’s so stupid

  • ItsJacobage
    Jacob (@ItsJacobage) reported

    @Foxtel No more dms. You do nothing but ignore them and drag the drama on further enttapping me further in debt. I've now paid it. Please put my channels on. I'd prefer to discuss it all with @acccgovau more as @Foxtel doesn't bother to fix its ways of doing things.

    .@FOXTEL_Help Pretty disappointed with the service so far, signed up last Wednesday & was told 2 days to receive new box. Still waiting for box & can’t get any help from customer care. Paying for a service we don’t even have. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

    @theJnrDon @VeritasEver @evmulholland Another victim of Rupert Derangement Syndrome? What an idiot you are. I don’t have Foxtel, I don’t buy the papers. Unless Rupert666 rings me personally, I wouldn’t know what his opinions are, nor care.

    @AusOpinion @vanOnselenP Shoot the messenger. No wonder so many see Murdoch as a cancer on our society. She is spot on, and has the overwelming support of the Qld population. Sorry if your foxtel sport coverage was affected Rupert.

    If the spread of misinformation is dangerous on the internet why is it on television? Sky News broadcasts to the public on free-to-air tv as well as the subscription foxtel service. So what is the government's broadcasting regulator doing about stopping the spread of covid lies?

    @penciltotemple1 I even briefly flirted with a foxtel free trial and they had most of the seasons but only from ep 7 onwards for each one??? LIKE WTF????? WHAT TYPE OF EVIL IS THIS

    @cricketcomau Probably one of the reasons foxtel didn’t broadcast this match… save us the embarrassment! Our batting is terrible.. was terrible in the West Indies tour as well.

  • dsmith24perth
    David Smith (@dsmith24perth) reported

    @LauraPh222 @JohnSimpsonNews The saving grace is that FOXTEL is expensive and has a small audience for the news channel. Regional stations carry the service but not to a large audience. We are lucky Australia has a small population or the poisonous content would be more dangerous.

    I can’t use any of my services that requires internet on my Foxtel box until I get my internet fixed tomorrow as my internet provider is sending a technician out tomorrow morning to fix my line outside to my internet

    @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel just wondering why next week we are not getting days of our lives until Thursday, when it is back on in America Monday which will be Tuesday here. Is your contract not for express anymore. We are paying top dollar for the service. Thanks

    How good are Foxtel. By good I mean ****. Waited nearly a month since my move to get my installation in the new place. Booked in today between 7-12. I confirmed it yesterday. Bloke doesn’t show and after 30 mins on phone they cancelled by mistake. Next available date 17 Aug

    @Foxtel one week without internet or TV. Sent DM messages, been transferred between every department. Been hung up on and ignored. Passed onto a case manager 3 days ago and still no phone call or follow up. Shocking customer service. Please cancel all of my foxtel services.

    @Phoenix_Ranger @cypherisk @binge I think it's an Australian streaming service only. It takes all its content from foxtel which is our version of fox. Binge doesn't produce its own content yet, but maybe we can convince it would be worth it to #SaveProdigalSon #LacedWithLove

    @jrisles @CaseyBriggs I only went with them because of an old Foxtel cable into my house and at the time I was on ADSL that was very slow and getting slower. There was no NBN in my area yet. I could get really fast internet via cable, but only through Telstra. It worked well until lightning strike.

    Mitch Johnstone (@MitchJohnstone2) reported

    @Arjys_Eye It’s a joke. I’ve been a 10 year Foxtel customer. 2 set top boxes costing me an arm & a leg. Small selection of movies that are on repeat, fewer selection of music channels that are no good, and Cricket channel that doesn’t show enough Cricket. Fox Footy the only saving grace.

    @MrKRudd Foxtel is a monopoly? Too funny. Foxtel not only has competitors, their competitors provide the service for free. Have you heard of ABC News 24? (I know, it's crap, I don't watch it either)

  • AngelicaNoir

    @TaniaT1981 Still can't watch. I'm still in mid redecorating mode, so everything, except foxtel box, is unplugged. Need to get new tv, too. I keep adding to the "to do" list, but never marking things off!! 🙄
