    @FOXTEL_Help @FOXTEL_Help still no resolution 6 hours later

  • russell_mc Russell (@russell_mc) reported

    @826Maureen Thanks for sharing this article Maureen, I looked for it in the Oz DT and Courier Mail, couldn’t find it. So I cancelled my subscription to all of them yesterday. On the verge of cancelling Foxtel too as the service is pathetic.

  • ACMilanSydney The AC Milan-Godfather (@ACMilanSydney) reported

    @MilanesePat @beINSPORTS_AUS @Foxtel Yes we have this problem every season, I remember last time they were showing a tennis game in the middle of the night. How many tennis fans would be up at such ungodly hours? I say not many, but football fans do that regularly for every game.

  • JimLangdon15 Jim Langdon (@JimLangdon15) reported

    @kayosports Already paying for your watered down sports channels, now you want $30 extra for a boxing match? No wonder @Foxtel is failing...

  • GailClifford7 Gail Clifford (@GailClifford7) reported

    @russell_mc I spent a fair bit on a booster, threw it away. I complained to Foxtel and they put up a satellite for free. Haven’t had a problem since, except it loses signal very briefly in really bad weather, it’s very rare. Satellite is quite small on the back of house, can’t see it.

  • mrnator mrnator (@mrnator) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I just upgraded my package to include sports but I can access the channels. Please help, trying to watch F1 practice.

  • MilanesePat Milanese Pat (@MilanesePat) reported

    @ACMilanSydney @beINSPORTS_AUS @Foxtel Beinsports is the worst. Multiple times a season this nonsense happens.

  • kackles74 Kirk (@kackles74) reported

    @AmberMaySchultz A mate of mine who recently stopped working for Foxtel and therefore Murdoch says he just sleeps better at night. He didn’t realise how horrible is was working for Newscorp until he got out. I suggest you do the same as they will be bankrupt very soon.👍

  • tdeb007 Tania 😷🇦🇺 (@tdeb007) reported

    @shaymcgg Not everyone has foxtel though 🥺 I’ve tried 3 different browsers, the kayo app, ad kayo support. Though nobody is home for support 🥺

  • Hugh_96 Hugh_96 (@Hugh_96) reported

    @mitchell_pw @walmason Mitch, don’t worry about Wally he is or was a long time Newscorp sports editor, maybe The Australian. So was never into rugby especially when rugby left Foxtel. Also at Newscorp rugby will never compete with NRL which is understandable, which is fine.

  • b_russo10 B.Russo10 -Campioni D' Italia 🇮🇹🏆 (@b_russo10) reported

    @ACMilanSydney @beINSPORTS_AUS @Foxtel Its not working on the app anyway, the game is still frozen while they are warming up before kick of. useless

  • lastkissperry laur ☆ 3 (@lastkissperry) reported

    if I had foxtel, I would personally never leave my house this is heaven

  • gmilney60 Just an Observation (@gmilney60) reported

    @SkyNewsAust I am a Foxtel customer, and I demand that my money is spent on a higher quality of journalism than Sky News.

  • irenenog danny jackson (@irenenog) reported

    @kingdk @nickbonyhady Foxtel owned by Criminal Murdoch on my **** list never to be watched period

  • jasonsole8 Jason (@jasonsole8) reported

  • theonelazywolf ThatOneLazyWolf🐺 (@theonelazywolf) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help has the log in problem been fixed? I payed my bill and it still won’t let me watch anything

  • dazza031982 Dazz82 (@dazza031982) reported

    @Foxtel I have to ask, are you just totally useless and dont know how to fix the issues your broadband had or are you just a holes that dont care at all about the people you rip off?????

  • ACMilanSydney The AC Milan-Godfather (@ACMilanSydney) reported

    @DForna96 @beINSPORTS_AUS @Foxtel So you are in Australia? On the app was only checking for the Milan game, but when you mentioned it, I noted others not working either.

  • ACMilanSydney The AC Milan-Godfather (@ACMilanSydney) reported

    Sorry guys, I’m unable to watch the #MilanAtalanta game. Not on wifi on laptop or my mobile data, thanks to @beINSPORTS_AUS wonderful service (not). They are showing a French game, Rugby and tennis. This is when I feel like cancelling everything. @Foxtel 😡

  • itsjamiiie Jamie (@itsjamiiie) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help This is what I’ve been doing all day, still no resolution.

  • magicmoments000 The SCodfather (@magicmoments000) reported

    its 2023 not 1983 and we had to watch a game on @Foxtel that broadcasted on 240p VHS is 280p it was below VHS standard with 2 Camera (people) that had no knowledge of HOW TO OPERATE a camera im still suffering from motion sickness i need to Just a Calm a Down

  • DForna96 Daniel Fornarino (@DForna96) reported

    @ACMilanSydney @beINSPORTS_AUS @Foxtel The app is broken. Can’t watch the PSG game or the Toulon games. All football on the app isn’t working (TV or web app) - absolutly pathetic

  • leighroyS1977 LeighroyS (@leighroyS1977) reported

    I am gathering the quality of the @AFL telecast is due to it being a kayo feed, confirms I will never ever pay for kayo, give me foxtel anytime

  • itsrenatak Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    I have a technician coming from Foxtel today this morning before 9am to install an upgraded box for my multi room box in the bedroom as my box I have is slow and needs upgrading from an iQ3 to an iQ4 seen as my TV in the bedroom is now 4k.

  • _J0EL_ Joel (@_J0EL_) reported

    @BradyMcArdle @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help That could be the issue :)

  • JeffTay43356052 Joffa1 (@JeffTay43356052) reported

  • MarkC71710524 MarkC (@MarkC71710524) reported

    @Foxtel Don't get foxtel. Paying to watch repeats of old crap.

  • Trevor12371105 jimmmmyyyyyyyyy (@Trevor12371105) reported

    @Foxtel why is it so hard to change my service to my new home!! Need to wait 2 weeks after I move to get a technician or if I connect through wifi I can’t get the modem and new box until 1 week after!!! Seems a lot of red tape for nothing
