Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Liz 🐨🦈 (@clarkshollanov) reportedGreat now I have to pay for Foxtel again. This **** ain’t cheap.
-
John Rheinberger (@RheinbergerJohn) reported@gavin_laing Streaming rights- both live and highlights -are more important than ever. Nine would like to retain (or gain) some exclusivity for live telecasts as Foxtel regularly beats it for viewers when games are simultaneously broadcast. Its product is that bad (put it down to commentary)
-
Ashley Warren (@Peanut87Butter) reported@Foxtel shitting the bed with the #Anzacday Bombers vs Collingwood game with no game sound. And people pay for this ****. Disgraceful
-
Dan (@Dan90091917) reported@Frumpy45 @SC___Scout Kayo doesn’t have channel numbers like Foxtel does retard
-
Mei-Ling Day (@Meilingday) reported@JFalleiro Jeepers. I try to cancel my foxtel and I have the retention department sending me emails, and them giving me deals I don’t want over the phone! I can’t escape them! I feel sad hearing all this. I genuinely do.
-
harleyw (@harleywattsconn) reported@CraigTong__ @wayne_kag @AlboMP You ever tried to cancel Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel?
-
Adrian Sal (@adriansal80) reported@2_Blue_Baggers @SC___Scout I've had Foxtel since day one, in fact I remember getting galaxy when it first came to Australia. Have never used Kayo and would never use Kayo.
-
𝖓𝖆𝖙𝖆𝖑𝖎𝖊 𝖏𝖆𝖊 (@njaex) reported@buttholefactory wake up, watch cheez TV, simpsons, neighbours at night whilst eating dinner, VHS movies, gaming consoles, my gameboy. we had foxtel too so i was sat my *** ******** down on my couch after school with 2 minute noodles watching kim impossible 😭
-
Joe Blow (@JoeBlowthoughts) reported@a_eugol @DanGinnane is a moron. Why do you even listen to him? Doesn't even know the rules. Sucks up to everyone at Foxtel! Goodbyyyyeeeee
-
kristen (@_kjerkovich) reported@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!!!
-
𝕹𝖔𝕯𝖚𝖓𝖓𝖞𝕻𝖆𝖕𝖊𝖗 🧻 (@blankandclear) reported@Cryptozoologis7 @SCWhisperer Slater and Smith are as bad as the two you mentioned. Thank goodness for Foxtel. Channel 9 suck!
-
Frank (@FrankieJBroph) reported@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!
-
Mustard (@Curiosooo123) reported@cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.
-
Garry (@garry1951b) reported@Quartermain10 @7AFL Just as bad on @Foxtel / Kayo.
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job. **** you #Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?
-
Tim Smith (@tim_smith1981) reportedWorst on ground today goes to @FOXFOOTY. Very piss poor effort especially given the recent price increase by @Foxtel #afldonspies
-
Squiddy (@Aquae_Sq) reported@robb_j_m Making it useless and bad was the primary purpose of the 2013 Abbott government. Almost certainly at the behest of Murdoch, as it would hurt his Foxtel business.
-
lady galadriels 🏏 @ mtcg - ishkh khakfe andu null (@miss_reys_mind) reportedWhy the bloody hell has foxtel still got the stupid seinfeld channel ? Why not a friends channel ? Or a married with children channel ? A frasier/cheers channel ? So many better options than that absolutely stupid show having its own channel
-
David Horrocks (@DavidHorrocks1) reported@Foxtel I sent an email to Foxtel and tried to make a follow up phone call. But the live chat cut out. My wife passed away on Friday and I have no interest in television so I want to cancel my account.
-
Daran Murphy (@winrgrin06) reported@Ryandally08 Perhaps 7,9,10 and SBS and WIN too who all get a subsidy and tax breaks to broadcast. I mean even Foxtel got $30 mill perhaps shut them down too. Radio….well that’s ****. Shut them down as well.
-
Adrian Sal (@adriansal80) reported@SC___Scout Have never and will never get kayo. I've had Foxtel since day one. Never one issue.
-
Les Slee (@Manlyles) reportedIs there a worse company to deal with than @ Foxtel absolutely **** service
-
Mark Fawcett (@mfawcett1977) reported@Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.
-
Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported@Ausbobsmit Knifing Tony Baloney was a fine public service. You forget Tony brought us world slowest copper wire internet to save Rupert Murdoch’s satellite Foxtel crap from being dumped in the bin. The man in the photo had to sell the dog to us. Not me - I was one of first fibre connected.
-
Greg McCann (@Crankymack52) reported@strangerous10 @ItsBouquet Why does anyone take notice of our former unelected PM. Poor Foxtel backing a losing supporter of the LNP, who are being replaced by One Nation. Will Pauline now get top billing?
-
cayley⁷🏒 (@ccaynucks) reportedthere’s an ad for yoplait playing on foxtel atm and i already find it annoying but sometimes it plays 3 TIMES IN A ROW and i’m genuinely thinking ill never be able to eat yoplait again it makes me so angry
-
Bruce Goosnargh. 🌳 (@camelboy33) reported@Tuxy81 I pay $29 a month for Foxtel Basic and Sports on the app. No streaming issues. Ever.
-
Paulo Yarb (@PauloYarb) reported@rohan_connolly @colonelhogans Don’t worry too much. Enduring the cats swans on Foxtel was painful. If it wasn’t Dwayne the pain talking ****, it was camera work which failed miserably. Absolute rubbish. Switch over to the pies game and you’ve gotta listen to back door Lyon and Howie. And the umpiring…pfft
-
LeTigre (@LeTigre_12) reportedCan Foxtel turn down Garry Lyons microphone? He does not shut up
-
Catta (@Catta_SCT) reported@AFL @SuperCoachAFL @Foxtel Ffs Foxtel, we customers pay big $$$$ for your service - your efforts for the massive Anzac Day match between the Pies & Bombers was absolutely PUTRID Lift your fk’n game you 🥔‘s
