Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jomagoo68 Magoo (@jomagoo68) reported from Gold Coast, State of Queensland

    @DwdonsDavid You can sign up for 14 day free trial, then cancel before the 14 days are up. All other games should be on Foxtel

  • Clubby_R8 Christine McDonald 🇦🇺💉💉 💓 (@Clubby_R8) reported

    Well it's time to go upstairs to bed, lost the signal on Foxtel because of the 🌧.

  • Paul_Chapman1 Paul Chapman (@Paul_Chapman1) reported

    @Foxtel Yeah I did that but couldn't wait longer than the 20 mins I was on hold, I had work calls to take. I'll try again later or tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

  • 5altydog Prof. Fate (@5altydog) reported

    @FOXFOOTY @kayosports full paying foxtel customer and I can't watch the game... something very wrong there, am I expected to pay for the kayo app as well and double up? @foxtel

  • Sproulie72 Sproulie (@Sproulie72) reported

    @Foxtel @turtlemagpies Seems totally illogical. Why would a streaming service, like Foxtel, be encouraging punters who have Foxtel to use a different streaming source? Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Wouldn't be surprised if those punters can Foxtel and go with Kayo in future!

  • FreoPope Freo ⚓ Pope (@FreoPope) reported

    @Foxtel @turtlemagpies So you'll make it available on the Foxtel Go streaming service, right?

  • Mattys123 Matt (@Mattys123) reported

    @DavidPalmer1985 @CollingwoodFC @kayosports If I'm going to pay for it I'd want it to work on the TV. If not I'm better off with foxtel. Never freezes

  • benlee1979 Ben (@benlee1979) reported

    @Mickw1807 I think it’s a proper account, I had to sign up to kayo as it the game had a 🔒sign …even though I have every Foxtel channel (kayo is just fox sports & is owned by Foxtel). So it’s like paying for the same thing twice. Will cancel kayo asap

  • johnsolvander John Solvander (@johnsolvander) reported

    @Paul_Chapman1 @Foxtel Annoying. If you can set something up online, you should be able to cancel it online!

  • RobOz01 Robbo (@RobOz01) reported

    @trampanya @Foxtel You can try a free 14 day trial of Kayo. I tried it today so I could watch the Bombers down the Dogs in a practice match lol. It was glitchy and dropped out and buffered or something when I paused it. Pic didn’t seem as good either. Sticking with devil I know for now👹

  • PeroHazmat Pero (@PeroHazmat) reported

    @aleaguemen There were years of bad management under the previous administration and Foxtel. All that needed to be done was to listen to the fans and address their concerns to move the ball forward in a constructive way yet you decided own goals were the way to go.

  • Cpcc15 The Uranium Bull formerly known as Rob ☢️🐂 (@Cpcc15) reported

    @RobOz01 @Foxtel Not sure what the issue is? They didn’t have to televise these games and they decided too.

  • camo2572 Darren Camilleri⚫️⚪️⚫️🇦🇺✊🏾 (@camo2572) reported

    @Foxtel @turtlemagpies That’s a crap reply I agree with David , I refuse to use Kayo Sports when I have Foxtel Platinum, Lift your game Foxtel

  • trampanya AUS SPN IMPALA GIRL - Fully Vaccinated & Boosted💉 (@trampanya) reported

    @RobOz01 @Foxtel I already used that when I signed up for the free one lol! I have trouble with the pausing, but assumed it was because it was the free account. Good to know. Can't live with 'em, can't function without 'em...for sport.

  • CosmicMatt92 Matt Percival (@CosmicMatt92) reported

    @DeanRosario @JohnStensholt I gave Foxtel a lot of **** over the years, particularly in their last 2-3 seasons of the rights, and it was justified in most cases, but @RobbieSlater17 is right and there is no relevance. The game has gone downhill massively from many factors, and Paramount has made it worse.

  • jonathondm Jonathon Moore (@jonathondm) reported

    Foxtel TV service also down

  • Campylamps Campy (@Campylamps) reported

    @mickh05 I’ve got Foxtel - ALL the channels. Was going to sign up for Kayo’s 14 day free trial to watch todays match then cancel. But CANNOT get the bastard to work! What rubbish!! 😖

  • KRUDLER62 EssEnDoN-Proud Lifer 👍AZ💉💉➕PZ💉👍 (@KRUDLER62) reported

    @RobOz01 @Foxtel I’ll be calling @foxtel tomorrow canceling my full service and getting Kayo for the football months.

  • _DylanM Dylan (@_DylanM) reported

    Really wanted to cancel Foxtel for Kayo but it is terrible. Constant drops in quality, freezes and then just put me back to the start of the game.

  • _Ben_Wallace Ben Wallace (@_Ben_Wallace) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help my LG TV keeps getting error pe3016, but not always. If I watch the first episode suggested, no problem. If it suggests season 2 of a show and I select season 1 I get rhe error

  • Mattys123 Matt (@Mattys123) reported

    @bennyshelts @CollingwoodFC @kayosports It's a horrible set up still. Doesn't load on most older TV's. Always freezes. The menus are a mess. I've stuck with foxtel streaming. Because it's so much cleaner and easier to use. And doesn't freeze at all

  • VTerlegas Johnny Fistikis ❤️💙 (@VTerlegas) reported

    @RobbieSlater17 @simonfrary Not only did they alienate those who passionately supported NSL teams but then they went and alienated the active supporter groups. Add to that a crappy streaming service which doesnt have the 2m home reach that kayo/foxtel had to attract the casual, and it = death

  • Hynaman Rick Hynes (@Hynaman) reported

    @Campylamps Have to say, I have not had one issue with Kayo since joining. I have also got rid of Foxtel after 22 years which is one of my greatest decisions ever. Go the Bomber boys!!!!

  • jodiem JodieM (@jodiem) reported

    @katsinsight A) foxtel is not in the building so there is no way to get foxtel except for Foxtel Go. B) there are already ample hooks on the walls, c) I've left the watering system and hose for the balcony garden. I'm trying to help them make it home

  • cdotswann Chris Swann (@cdotswann) reported

    Oh no Sam Neill, @TwoPaddocks! Not a foxtel advert, not a Murdoch thing. I know I’m being judgy! Can’t help it, somethings are just wrong.

  • franklynbluth Scott McG (@franklynbluth) reported

    @centristozzy @Brendon5374 He owns foxtel too, *******. Heard of sky “news”? As for the abc, nobody has ever said that. Newspapers still sell but people also get newspaper content online. As for being an idiot, you’re the one with graph of tv thinking it proves your stupid narrative.

  • RobOz01 Robbo (@RobOz01) reported

    You pay all that money to @Foxtel year after and they produce the Kayo service and then put exclusive content like today's practice match on without broadcasting it on @Foxtel. Exceptionally poor form. Maybe they want us to get Kayo and disconnect @foxtel all together??

  • Demonblog Adam 1.0 (@Demonblog) reported

    WTF is that Foxtel ad with Petracca kicking a goal after the siren for the benefit of a full kit ****** kid watching in the colours of Generic FC?

  • Danza109 Dan (@Danza109) reported

    @maxii30 @SwoopLuke @FFA I’m a casual fan, didn’t mind watching games from time to time on Foxtel, but no way I’m investing in another streaming service solely for it. Also shocked they’re persisting with 2 games at the same time on a Saturday. Like the BBL, they’ve made a mess of a good thing.

  • JonathanJWalsh Jonathan Walsh (@JonathanJWalsh) reported

    @KRUDLER62 Inclined to disagree. If Practice Matches weren't being shown at all, no one would blink an eye. They're delivering a service as a value add, I think they've got a right to commercialise it. FWIW. I ditched Foxtel and am Kayo only now. Will never look back.
