    @FOXTEL_Help the new 4K coverage for more games is great, but I can't work out how to schedule record in 4K? The support page says: "Yes, you can record the Ultra HD events via the Synopsis" When I go to TV Guide and full info I can't see it?

    @myown_brand @Foxtel I mean I'm glad you enjoy Foxtel but there's no need to make me feel bad by atting me ;)

  • Andrew_Godman Andrew Godman (@Andrew_Godman) reported

  • DeanLiv65874895 Dean (🧙‍♂️🧙‍♂️) Livingstone (@DeanLiv65874895) reported

    @Fox_Motorsport @FOXSportsAUS We can’t watch the F1 testing in Australia. What a joke Foxtel. Why do we pay for this service when you don’t show the testing or don’t show NASCAR

  • RpgNiick Nick (@RpgNiick) reported

    @Foxtel But you still manage to charge my Grandparents $140 a month for a 720p box with no recording capability, and wont seem to fix that? Maybe sort that **** out first hey.

  • DannyG40358407 Danny Watson (@DannyG40358407) reported

    @Foxtel Foxtel still robbing people for overpriced **** ?

  • koberulz koberulz (@koberulz) reported

    Having to watch the end of the Throwdown on Kayo because my Foxtel signal dropped. How do people watch this? The frame rate is just unacceptable for sporting content. #NBL22

  • FrankieLee67 Stig (@FrankieLee67) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I have error code SR100 on my Samsung tv. Can you advise how to fix this ?

  • JOHNY99658683 JOHNY (@JOHNY99658683) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports WORST CRICKET PLAYING BY AUSTRALIAN....PLAYING FOR DRAW

  • silvf0x silvf0x (@silvf0x) reported

    @Foxtel Does anyone buy this ****?? Foxtel was a waste of money a decade ago, now with all the streaming options available, this dinosaur needs to join its brethren in the Triassic period.

  • FrankWCE1992 Frank (@FrankWCE1992) reported

    @DaymanNiteman @MandarinCrypto @3AW693 The tax payers money Murdoch (Foxtel) got was to show women's sport because no other FTA station would show it because of how poor it rates... and Foxtel did it and it still lost them money even with the grants. So I agree.. stop paying Foxtel to show women's sport at all

  • jahuayhu12345 Jake sauce (@jahuayhu12345) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Starcy put too much pressure on him ffs. Sounds like we’ll declare at stumps so cmon starcy wtf

  • aeroasad @meh (@aeroasad) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Hey fox cricket. Why aren't you bitching and complaining now? Boring poor cricket from Aussies

  • the_abby_road abby road (@the_abby_road) reported

    @Foxtel Murdoch will never get my money. Ever.

  • Gatty54 Ray Gatt (@Gatty54) reported

    Can anyone help. At my SIL’s place. She’s away. She has smart tv with Foxtel app. It is stuck on “are you still watching” message. Can’t get rid of it. All other apps and normal tv works fine. I’ve turned the internet off and on. @FOXTEL_Help

  • GojiraHawk 💉RichardK (fully Pfized + boosted) (@GojiraHawk) reported

    Seeing another presumably expensive advertising blitz for the satellite service where you can watch ads on Foxtel and some programs/sports and movies as well.. ****’em, I hope one day the AFL, Formula 1 and HBO realise they won’t need them for streaming their content.

  • tealou Téa Smith (@tealou) reported

    The internet is basically now like being 3 months in on Foxtel. It was amazing and there were so many possibilities but now it’s just repeating on itself constantly and you’re like “**** Murdoch”

  • helsby9 rodhelsby (@helsby9) reported

    @LCHF_Matt @SaintEd61 Murdoch wanted to protect his Foxtel service. Fibre to the house would have killed it. That’s why we have fibre to the node and then copper to your house. Unless you pay for the fibre to your house yourself

  • the_abby_road abby road (@the_abby_road) reported

    @Toby_rockpig @Foxtel cancel it then. simple.

  • epsutherland Ewen Sutherland (@epsutherland) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I think the easy would be to cancel this service completely. I’m not getting any service

  • CocCricket Muhammad Shafiq (@CocCricket) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports it was out .. umpires call bad luck

  • POASEJ1977 Wordle King (@POASEJ1977) reported

    @AleaguesCentral Surely sporting codes before accepting the highest bid, need to ensure that the network provider has a quality product. People kick and scream but Foxtel was a far superior product.

  • JoeBloe1978 JoeBloe (@JoeBloe1978) reported

    @NBL @ESPNAusNZ @kayosports If I’m paying Foxtel to watch cairns play there is a serious issue . F despicable

  • brad_lacey Brad Lacey 🇺🇦 (@brad_lacey) reported

    @myown_brand @Foxtel This made me think about patronage historically, and then I wondered if a platform that both paid creators enough to get by *and* never paywalled any of the created content (ie it's all released to the commons) could be possible in today's world.

  • brad_lacey Brad Lacey 🇺🇦 (@brad_lacey) reported

    @myown_brand @Foxtel And now all I have to do is turn that into a "visual essay" (something I'm pretty sure I've never done) and hand it in by 9pm oh and also finish the other assignment that was due Friday and wait why am I studying again? It is fun to be thinking about things outside of me though.

  • TompsettNathan Nate tommo (@TompsettNathan) reported

    Of all days for @Foxtel /nbn to be down it’s the first super Saturday of the year!! Better be back on by 3 😩

  • BrianBriggsSG Brian Briggs (@BrianBriggsSG) reported

    Is it just me but I am spending a lot of nights watching all the Foxtel news channels not that I want to support Murdoch but at least I get BBC, CNN etc over the Ukraine invasion.

  • notyeej yeej (@notyeej) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports got greedy damn
