  • shazdottcom Sharon H (@shazdottcom) reported

    @zanrowe @Foxtel Looked it up on Just Watch this morning and disappointing to see that no streaming service in Oz has rights to it.

  • FluffyPinkSock ACK! ACK! ACK! ACK! (@FluffyPinkSock) reported

    @JasonBr55884505 @TelstraPurple I hope you've never ever used any of these.. Microwave ovens Bluetooth Wireless controllers on consoles WiFi Any mobile phone after 2G. Cordless Telephone Flew in a plane Sailed on a cruise ship. Foxtel delivery by satellite Parking sensors. If you have, you're going to die!!

  • lewismarkm mark lewis (@lewismarkm) reported

    @Dinotabot1 @PatsKarvelas No don't have foxtel so can't see sky. Have watched the ABC since the 60's. Loved the ABC pre covid. But the ABC and it journos have gone to ****. They are no different to the crud on commercial TV. One of the saddest things about the pandemic.

    Foxtel go not working?

  • BrendinoM Brendino McBurcombe (@BrendinoM) reported

    @Nettythe1st This is why you should cancel your Foxtel subscription when you have kids (skynews) lol

  • T____R Mad Hatters Party (@T____R) reported

    @PaulMeekPerth @Foxtel has been trash for years. Their poor business model has finally caught up with them.

  • Robert6420 Robert Tunn (@Robert6420) reported

    @ChiefHavic @Foxtel Defund and allow Murdoch to spread his vile and bias more effectively. No thank you. If you support Murdoch you obviously have something to gain personally from that. I suggest you are in need of a better set of values.

  • M1shka_8 Mishka 🐻 (@M1shka_8) reported

    Hey @Telstra this is totally unacceptable. We have had no internet or Foxtel since last Thursday. Technician came today, did nothing & said it’s a street outage & doesn’t know when it will be back. I work & study from home & need the internet. Do better! #unacceptable #Reported

  • Imno_superman_ Pickled Pickle 🍍🍕 (@Imno_superman_) reported

    Foxtel is now cancelled I was on a voluntary suspension up until this month Can’t say I’ve missed it one bit the past 4mths **** off Murdoch 🖕

  • MynoteTa thomas armstrong (@MynoteTa) reported

    @Foxtel When you're ready to pay ME to watch your garbage then come and talk to me.

  • WhellumAnthony Anthony whellum (@WhellumAnthony) reported

    @PaulMeekPerth @jaquix173 Foxtel still run their business model the same as when they controlled the market, with arrogance. There is really new content. The fact that there is no customer input into what you would like to watch, and they dictate the packages you receive, says everything about them.

  • sucksnitroMax Gary killed hungry thirsty. (@sucksnitroMax) reported

    @DavePar21 @Foxtel You’re spot on, I was with them for years & years then gave it away for the cheaper Kayo/Binge option. Had Platinum package but couldn’t justify price any longer. When they refused to offer me same deals as new customer I walked.

  • JoshuaWithers Josh Withers (@JoshuaWithers) reported

    The hotel quarantine system is obviously not working, I say we move to a motel quarantine system where we lock people in highway motels in the Australian Outback for two weeks. Nothing like Free Foxtel and packets of two biscuits with instant coffee to ward off Covid.

  • Berry1Jennifer Jen Berry (@Berry1Jennifer) reported

    @jwo30 @Foxtel Yes! My mum can attest to that. When she tried to, everything went to **** with her Telstra services .. misunderstandings and miscommunication that still continues.

  • Robert6420 Robert Tunn (@Robert6420) reported

    @ChiefHavic @Foxtel FOXTEL is damaging Australian society. Your support of it is misguided rubbish. What I do and where is irrelevant to that fact.

  • Uber331 Eastern Suburbs (@Uber331) reported

    Anyone watched a good show called Golfbarons Has to be the worst show ever to be shown on Foxtel It’s kindergarten Moronic Shite @foxtel

  • wosaurus 𝗖𝗢𝗢𝗣𝗦 (@wosaurus) reported

    I called @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help I spoke to someone in Kenya, South Africa and Phillipines none of them could resolve my issue. I asked to speak to someone in Australia they said they aren’t allowed transfer calls to Australia. They have to fill out a form for a call back. #foxtel

  • Scott_B_71 Scott Burton (@Scott_B_71) reported

    @AndrewRLP Foxtel go. As in you have a foxtel set top box. No. Foxtel now. Should be. play store for ps3 was going to be shut down but sony changed their minds in April.

  • katclancy キャット 🇦🇺🇯🇵 #bekind (@katclancy) reported

    @joininthechorus I used to be able to from Foxtel now. And I've done other games fine. Just plays up sometimes, quality of video crap, or just won't play

  • CartoJJ1 CartoJJ (@CartoJJ1) reported

    @PaulMeekPerth Maybe if FOXTEL didn’t show just crap then their earning might be greater. Who watch them anyway.

  • CoolCoolpete36 Cool Pete (@CoolCoolpete36) reported

    @sdtuc2 What could be wrong with it? Well, consider this: Foxtel is owned by Murdoch. If the ABC were defunded, who would own it? Surely not Bloody Murdoch! And how much would they charge? If 7,9 and 10 are free to air, then the ABC and SBS should be, too. That idiot who farted that

  • matpeden Mathew Peden (@matpeden) reported

    @Foxtel No thanks - trying to cut back a biton how much evil I support

  • Johnny14189873 Jolly (@Johnny14189873) reported

    @Foxtel As a long term customer I was thinking of saying no and I contacted Foxtel and renewed and got a great deal - treat them right and you will be surprised

  • bkbaguley kbaguley (@bkbaguley) reported

    If I had a Foxtel account I would cancel it now. Can't ever knowingly contribute to Murdoch's wealth. The Australian rag has become a propoganda sheet for this mob of LNP vandals. The Murdochracy seek at every turn to attack our ABC. 64% stranglehold of Oz media isn't enough!?

    @SnowyAustralia @Foxtel Please. We all know you never had it.
