    @Foxtel Why do you continually offer great deals for new customers only Shouldn’t your focus be on retaining your current customer base in light of all the other streaming services

    @Foxtel I am unable to download the My Foxtel or Foxtel Go app on a new iPhone running software version 26.2. I am however able to use the apps on an older iPhone running the same version of software. Are you aware of the issue? When can a fix be expected?

    @j_sparks101 Haha thanks J, I’ve never spoken to a boxing fan that doesn’t think the same, staggering that Foxtel and No Limit continue to alienate boxing fans with ludicrous decision making, it’s truly insane

    The #hbomax app must be the worst app to run on #foxtel ,forever buffering ,loosing sound or just not working ... I may as well call it the albomax ,cause it just barely does anything

    @KanteBeStopped7 New TV deal fixes this issue in the long term. We go back to foxtel/kayo, people know the games are on, more money for clubs for better players, we see crowds go up.

    @PattyDurandGA Anonymous man? Are you serious? Have you not watched the @UFC or Fight Week on Foxtel? Have you never heard of the king of rock n rumble @Real_King_Elvis ?? Patty please do your research & stop with this nonsense. BTW Climate change is a scam 😒

    Granted, Foxtel has also declined a bit during the past decade but there was a time in the not overly distant past where at least 40% of Sydney (or so it seemed) had it. Despite having a hotel TV with most Foxtel channels while down in Canberra recently, I didn't really watch it

    @stationmum101 I feel your pain, my Dad is the same - I’ve spent time with him in the past year due to medical issues & he stayed with me TV loud, can hear it from the backyard, couldn’t figure out the Foxtel remote & ended up recording the news Lucky me - no smart phone

    First day of school holidays in WA! Want to watch the Scorchers but your parents can’t afford Foxtel? Too bad. **** you. Go throw rocks at trains.

    @kidcally92 @boxingscene Yes and that is the problem Opetaia is having and also little publicity on Foxtel ( pay tv) Pay tv and No Limit promotions can make a lot of money from the PayPerTSZYU brother’s due to their names.

    Thunder has just hit Melbourne VIC and always guarantee your @FoxCricket Foxtel box will shut down and then reboot itself and here are the our commentators telling us to stay tuned 😳🏏 #Ashes

    As a paying @Foxtel Customer, It’s a shame Fox Sports (Footy or cricket) commentators are from a studio in Sydney.. takes away the feeling of a game. Commentary continues to gets worse due to them not being at the ground Happens in footy season as well, lift please

    @Foxtel Just got 50 taken from my account by Foxtel for the second time in 6 months for a subscription I didn’t purchase, been a paying customer for 2 decades and the best they offered was a free movie.

    @NeilMur73809257 @The_SuperSC You get 1 game a week on 10 bold and P+ That’s a major issue for the league as we need more FTA games otherwise no one is paying P+ for a league they’re not really interested in At least if 9 has it they have Prem, CL and casual may watch AL like the Foxtel days

    @PaulDennett_ It’s not Cricket Australia issue - FOXTEL as the host broadcaster has responsibility for the technology used.

  • SydneyCityTV
    SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    In the grand scheme of our broadcasting history, Television Sydney was a good idea, a decade or so too late to garner quite the same level of community support C31 seems to have down in Melbourne. Not being available via Foxtel and/or translators wouldn't have helped TVS either.
