    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help How are we meant to watch anything when we keep getting playback errors popping up the last 2 days? Surely you come up with a resolution

    @hashjenni Foxtel is garbage now, they keep replaying the same crappy movies in a loop.

    @Tuxy81 @Raiders_24Sep89 Youโ€™re both kinda correct - if no FTA network bids, then the rights can go exclusively to Pay TV - but in this instance we know a FTA network has made a bid, so Foxtel/DAZN are compelled to find a FTA partner

    @onepercentas I have never watched less games, and almost nothing of the AFL tv shows than I ever have before. Will be cancelling my Foxtel and not going again this year.

    @footyindustryAU I reckon stays at kayo/foxtel. Look what happened to A-League and Rugby when they left. You never see them on pub tvs anymore. I mean the deal for that might not be worth it but for eyes on product?

    @PhilGould15 Sir, could we please look at starting our own channel to watch just our own games? I'm tired of giving those sour ***** at Fox my money. After listening to Voss and whatever the other has been's name is, I'm ready to cancel Foxtel after 20 yrs.

    @Foxtel Paying $30 a month for an inadequate Kayo app! By far the worst app streaming. Do you think you might fix your painful app so that we can actually use the forward and replay buttons without being pushed to ads or having to start from the beginning???

    @ruicharadrius Wifi here is like wifi anywhere, afaik. Perhaps you mean bandwidth. For that problem blame the government that thought fibre to premises was overkill. Turnbull, under the thumb of Murdoch who was protecting Foxtel. We donโ€™t hate Murdoch enough.

    @Foxtel can you please fix your Kayo Minis and full replay for the Freo v Hawks game last night?? Having only the 2min Sportsbet Preview available to stream is poor form 20+ hrs later!!!

    @codenrl **** I hope so . I hate channel 9 coverage. Foxtel is the greatest footy network. The people are decent down to earth and care about fans. Channel may have the greatest players ever but itโ€™s a lame boring telecast.

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    @7AFL I hope so or Iโ€™ll be going down the pub to watch Foxtel.

    Never thought iโ€™d have a phone call with anyone as absolutely useless as @Foxtel All I wanted was a replacement box, it took 1 hour to reach that conclusion. They were supposed to call me back 3 days ago and never did, this was me calling them a second time. 1/2

    Hey @Foxtel the next time I hear your AFL football commentators describe something as "elite", I will 1) Vomit and 2) Cancel my subscription. Enough of this repetitive garbage, I beg you. @AFL

    @FOXFOOTY Itโ€™s almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer canโ€™t hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?

    Don't pay for any applications or subscriptions. Cancel netflix foxtel etc all streaming platforms we own the phone companies. Delete bank account & open a new one. Information will be readily available at the touch of a finger. You can i read any encyclopaedia or text book Free.

    @fa37376 Do you understand how much money Qatar and the UAE have? Saudi Arabia have a minority stake in DAZN who bought Foxtel which plays Sydney games on it. They canโ€™t take it back, but they could have easily renewed the sponsorship, instead they turned down the money.

    @FOXTEL_Help I am currently unable to stream the Freo-Hawks AFL game from last night. When I select stream, it is a 2 minute episode of In The Back Pocket instead of the game. Can you fix this please?

    Foxtel must be desperate to sell tickets for the Fredumb 250 UFC disgrace, poor old Gerard has to keep pushing the broadcast at every commercial break.

    @PollyPorridge My town didnโ€™t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didnโ€™t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy

    **** this, I'm going out today to spend $3k on a media setup. I'm going back to just pirating TV/Movies. It's not because I am not willing to pay, its I am tired of paying subscription services and having everything so fragmented and being Nickel and Dimed by the services. When we worked on HD Streaming in the 2000's we set the foundation up for the industry to make video possible more easier. Even back then convincing Hollywood / TV Networks to abandon physical media for streaming was a huge undertaking in itself. They just were ******* in contracts with the creators of content and couldn't find a way to make online work. Fast forward 20 years later and this is the **** we end up with. It literally is just easier to pirate than its to keep doing this. atm I pay for: HBO Max Stan FoxTel Primewire Paramount Netflix Disney+ BritTv (i forgot to cancel the trial fml) AppleTV+ Its about $160 a month AUD I can't find half the **** i want to watch and the stuff that I want to watch is full of ads, or you have to then pay extra ontop. I'm out. stfu ... I'ma use AI to setup a complete end to end media experience.

    @Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who donโ€™t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.
