-
Ian Clarke (@ianclarkeAU) reported@GusLefty @AJG71 @karlstefanovic QED. This ALP fool doesn’t know Foxtel rolled out and paid for a cable network for far less $/ customer than the NBN. Foxtel: ~$800–$1,100 per premise. NBN: $2,000–$2,750+ per premise.
-
Briggsy (@champingyon) reportedThe Foxtel commentary team for this Titans vs Manly game could be the worst of all time....
-
Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported@LeagueFreak Kerry Packer believed you bid the maximum you can so if you loose to anyone else - you know they will be worst off than you. Foxtel knows it will lose half their subscriptions if they lose the NRL. And that means it will go broke because they already over paid for the AFL.
-
The Steps (@mcnamara_team) reported@clarke3110 @bondiroosters Yep, Kayo is just the revamped Foxtel rip off. The AFL and NRL have let down the supporters, won’t be long until the attendance to games drops because the general lack of interest is.
-
Piewarmer (@poundtown777) reported@FOXFOOTY @Foxtel what the hell is going on??? Why am I watching 2 channels of footy in INDIAN???? Sort this crap out #afldogstigers
-
bndt (@banditkayfabe) reportedThe audio on Kayo sounds awful and hollow but the audio on Foxtel is ok. What is going on thought my TV was playing up #AFLTigersHawks
-
troy b (@troy_be) reported@Saints1890 So he’s giving up the kangaroos gig. What about Foxtel. Poor Corey Parker got booted for him.
-
SupremeBeing (@SupremeBeing888) reportedFoxtel is worth about $4.99-$6.99 a month, it’s full of commercials… cancel your Foxtel now
-
Ck (@ckk766) reportedDoes the commentary team on #foxtel give any coverage at all of #piastri in F1? He’s leading Q1 and Q2 yet they’ve not spoken about him or even shown his laps once. Wtf
-
Kaitlyn (@doublepiked) reportedFoxtel hasn't got a single nrl or afl replay available from this week. What a useless piece of **** this service is.
-
Fine Cotton (@mr_finecotton) reported@Foxtel u say u provide the best entertainment & sport.... the latest series of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premiered 19 May 2026 in the USA.... It's July & youre still not screening in Aust - why am I paying $100/mth for second rate service? @HISTORY @BrandonFugal
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.
-
Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedHey when is the app coming for Android 17, can't log in for weeks now. Why am I paying you for no service? @Foxtel

Jez - WORLD PEACE PLEASE 🕊️❤️🌍 🇵🇸🇺🇦🇮🇷🌍 (@Jezzabhai108) reported@landry235 I very much think, Sue, that you and I are in the same 'Club'. I'm having a terrible time at the moment. I'm staying with Mum in Sydney and frankly, I think I'd feel more welcome and comfortable in a morgue. These things were sent to test us. And that reminds me: on my 50th birthday I hadn't heard ANYTHING from Mum by 5 in the afternoon, so I decided to phone her instead. She answered the phone in a foul mood and said she couldn't talk right then because she was having trouble with setting the Foxtel box to record the news! And then she hung up 🙄🙄🙄
-
Teresa (@teresa_62) reported@NRL That’s ridiculous. That means our @Foxtel will increase. There are only a few teams that are watchable. Not worth it. Will cancel .
-
patty (@patty123_45) reported@SportMoments0 You do realise the population has more than doubled in Melbourne since the 80s.. and there are more games. Crowds are down, without the Foxtel deal the AFL would be broke
-
Fred 🇦🇺 (@Possum2412) reported@JonesPam7777 @OMGTheMess Kinda sorta bloody oath. I got my pay rise, I'll be paying $22k in tax plus all the other taxes and council rates and water rates and electricity. Then I pay for Foxtel and internet and mobile phone. And then have to eat. And I don't live in a city. Poor people who do.
-
Mick (@Av_Gas2) reported@gilby_gillard @kayosports Foxtel signed a huge deal. I think kayo are now obliged to send punters their way now. I was with Kayo for 6 years and they just cancelled my subscription due regional bullshit. You can’t talk to anyone … they’re rubbish. Never again.
-
voldovor mias (@ViaMias11) reportedthere was that competition you sign up to foxtel and buy every pay per view wwe or something you can win a trainor and placement. Shayna bazzler and fat tony won. Seboyh tourian was there give it to sol ruca they were all fighting the stupid adrian drug squad police stephanie
-
Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported@SnoogThe Like all these events that “just happen”, if you’re at the ground listening to sports ear of the ref it’s normal after repeated warnings from the ref. Atkins lets things go for a couple times and then says something like “you’re on your last warning”, and then you get these “weird” decisions. I don’t like it - but it doesn’t shock me like it once did. If the NRL were serious about transparency, everyone should be able to receive a ref mic commentary on Kayo instead of the garbage we normally are subjected to recently. Foxtel had this in the mid 2000’s with just crowd mic sounds and the ref. It was great because it felt like you were at the ground.
-
LJ (@ADDICTED2GAM3S) reported@FadeAwayMedia I remember watching this on foxtel I was like this some good ****
-
Matt (@MC_Hammer75) reported@Aliceh_1936 It's so conflicting as I pay for a Foxtel subscription and enjoy the NRL via Fox way more than 9, but their journalism department is a bag of *****. I've blocked them on here so I don't see their rubbish clickbait. And on Galvin, **** every journo who **** on him. Wankers.
-
Bill Blakeney 🇦🇺 (@wablakeney) reported@Foxtel camera work for #AFLlionshawks is garbage!!
-
James Jones (@JamesyJones) reported@OMGTheMess Coalition also handed out $40m to Foxtel. Complete and utter scam. Cash for comment each and every night. There was no tender, no conditions and no reporting. All to a subscription service that cheerleads them every night. But the Right don’t dare bring that up.
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@KobieThatcher I'm still unsure how they measure how many people watch it as I've never seen a survey for it. Free to Air over Antenna is receive only as is Foxtel over satellite. I don't know many that watch FTA via the app.
-
Frumpy (@Frumpy45) reportedGood goal, too bad we missed it because Foxtel are obsessed with showing replays of absolutely nothing #AFLLionsHawks
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported@simmoh666 @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel Everytime Kayo plays up I find Foxtel is no good too. I just presume they using the same platform to stream with. Paramount were crap for two year just with sports the rest was good. They obviously took notice and worked to improve their technology & fixed it! Or viewers dropped
-
Gibbo (@Gibbogibbo123) reported@FSAAustralia @Craig_Foster As it stands today; Tv deal till 2029 (1 game free to air) light years behind Foxtel deal Licensing deal till 2024 re P/R - can this be changed? Salary cap 3m (2010 - 2.55m) Crowds down for 8 of 12 teams last year (scheduling, ticket prices, ground locations - what to fix asap
-
joan Reynolds (@joanReynolds52) reported@RBJRON @strangerous10 I’m with you. Haven’t bought a Murdoch rag since 1997. Never subscribed to Foxtel and, for my own sanity, never tuned into Sky. Don’t walk into a Harvey Norman shop and avoid anyone else who advertises with the Murdochracy

Rachel (@beetwoot) reported@FOXTEL_Help so apparently your live chat only works up to the point of saying “it’s still not working” and then they drop the chat.
