    @onepercentas Why does it even exist? Why do Foxtel not simply offer a sports only package? Why does it seem to run off different tech to the Foxtel app which has zero issues?

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    i did a mock order on the foxtel website to see how much it would be to potentially get one. ever since i’ve had them calling me 5-7 times a day 😭 one way to lose a potential customer!

    @AdyLady9969 Where I work the residents had there foxtel cut off & now if they came in past last November they only get 1 meal choice & can't have even gave a glass of wine unless they pay the extra to go classic service . These head office people are just money hungry & do not care

    @lorahmoe Foxtel was originally sold to us as ad free tv more than 20 years ago. A few yrs later we’d sit down to watch something, Didn’t matter what channel. You’d watch a few minutes then there were 10 mins of ads..we were paying $100 a Month for that!?? Absolute rubbish.

    @taximalsVT Foxtel was ****, and when Telstra first Introduced the High speed net, It really was Super fast high speed net for the first few months.. We got heaps. But they realised this, and all ISP's have been throttling the **** out of it every since.

    @FootyonNine So maybe Foxtel is correct and kayo and the like is a world leading service but the actual failure is our own countries ability to provide an internet service that has the ability to allow the public to best use it

    @kayosports @kayosports_help Foxtel is looking really good with no service and then need to sign into my own tv. Not good enough! I pay for the service and don’t need to sign in all the time, pathetic.

    @JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!

    @1116sen @SENBreakfast The issue was that foxtel lost the sync to the clock. The clock was still running on Channel 7 and so was still running for the timekeepers

    @StreamOnMax please fix your app. It glitches at every pseudo ad break requiring a restart. Super annoying and so cheap. #foxtel @Foxtel

    Turn on the TV to settle in for Super Saturday, only to be faced with an error message on my @Foxtel box. Apparently a known issue which is urgently being investigated. Sigh. To the app I now go.
