  • gratji1 Maggie Hunter (@gratji1) reported

    I’ve just got off the phone to Foxtel. I had to deal with someone who’s English is difficult to understand. No doubt a call centre in the Phillipines. No doubt Murdoch pays these people a pittance. I didn’t have the heart to cancel my subscription in case she got the blame.

  • Ausjames1994 Charlie (@Ausjames1994) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help The on demand foxtel website, why is the 30 second UNSKIPPABLE ad at the start of every show at full volume. Change that or give us the option to turn it down...

  • IhuntIfishIeat HuntingFishing (@IhuntIfishIeat) reported

    @Foxtel after 20 years of rubbish, bad customer service, poor shows finally pulled the plug. Kayo, Paramount +, Netflix such refreshing new additions and the best part, no ads. Foxtel has run its course, bad managment bad decisions the end is near.

  • cbpcoyle Craig Brian Peter Coyle (@cbpcoyle) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports PR stunt from a CEO grasping to hold onto his position.. coddle the masses and buy another 3-4yrs in the job.. poor transitioning with a weak association to maintain balance on a sinking ship..

  • vaughanrd Roger Schmacko 💉💉💉💉 (@vaughanrd) reported

    @PeterDutton_MP You need to cancel Foxtel, Boofhead, and pay attention to MSM to learn what he and his ministers are doing. We know. Shameful that you don’t know.

  • PublichealthJ PublicHealth Jim (@PublichealthJ) reported

    Hey Foxtel. Why won’t you send a technician out to install a new IQ4 for my parents in-law? They have been customers for >30 years, they are elderly & have very poor vision & the box was only 2 months old

  • jenleeren Jen Lee 🇺🇦🇺🇦 (@jenleeren) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Will a coach with zero experience who has a shot squad and no leadership fail?

  • will_nis An Animation Fan (@will_nis) reported

    Australia’s cable giant Foxtel has the exclusive rights to the HBO content and they put it on their ****** third party streaming service binge that pretty much only exists to store HBO content and almost nothing else.

  • HuffnPu06280905 Huff 'n Puff (@HuffnPu06280905) reported

    I wish Twitter would get lost with that damn survey about that show on foxtel. With all of these great streaming apps available, why would I be the slightest bit interested in helping foxtel with an answer. For years foxtel screwed everyone. Costs too much with little to show.

  • caterson62 mobydickswimsagain (@caterson62) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Crawley is only on fox because of his brother the boss - he is an idiot with no credibility

    @Kqueen80821100 True that / The Worse thing I ever done was buy myself a 70inch TV last year with the money I saved from quitting cigarettes / I also paid for a Foxtel Fox Sports subscription, so now I'm never off the lounge / I'm so happy about the Quitting smoking bit though ! 👍

  • frankyjosh31 Franky (@frankyjosh31) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Will a “coach” with no experience fail? Also did Kenty back Anthony Griffen at dragons
