@friendlyjordies My Dad STILL has Foxtel.. but he refuses to watch Sky. Says that they're all batshit crazy, they talk drivel and can only offer a giant **** you to Australians....

@flippy_me @maddyoby Not if you can access ESPN player somehow (that’s what I use Slong and VPN for, but friends use a Foxtel login), but if it’s just a school produced stream, a lot of them it’s easier to watch live. I use Pac 12 YouTube channel heaps though, basically whenever somethings on there.

@FOXFOOTY @kayosports Why wouldn't you just put it on foxtel as well. Seems pretty stupid

@Joeyjessie65 That is what I am trying to tell them. Tomorrow I will go to the Foxtel store here in Bris instead of trying to talk to someone overseas. This is the first time I have had a complaint about them as they are usually very helpful.

I'm still with Neil. That was his line in the sand and he stuck with it. Fair enough. But expecting ideological or ethical purity from any network is fraught. You may have Foxtel just for the sport but you're still subsidising Sky News.

@Foxtel please fix your programming guide, turn off the hockey post match and put on duke v unc asap. This is ridiculous

@Chrisquirk @ParamountPlusAU Then on top of that the technical side of the coverage, poor quality, lack of SmartTV app etc is just amateurish. Whatever they paid for this partnership, i'd seriously be asking for a refund. Foxtel even when trying their best to run it into the ground, were doing a better job.

@Foxtel I spent 2 hours yesterday speaking to 6 people and a dog with your customer service and technical support. Simple question, can I get an iq3 upgrade for cable?

(@Gary_AE) reported
@Foxtel Finally ordered an IQ5, also found out my IQ2 needs to be upgraded next month, never received the notice about that. According to your customer service, loss of signal from cloud cover can be fix by sending a technician. No wonder I get frustrated.

@SkyNewsAust Um, hate to break it to you, but tens of thousands of us no longer trust the media whatsoever and that trust is NEVER coming back. I haven’t turned on a tv or radio in 12 months. I cancelled Foxtel and my newspaper subscriptions. I’m done.

Golf commentary is at an all time low. Players do pull/push putts, not every miss is a poor read and not every player is a “great guy” Mix that with back to back @maccas commercials (3-4 per ad break) and @Foxtel have made the @PGAofAustralia #unwatchable #paypeanutsgetmonkeys

@SharonRalph7 Pity it wasn’t made available through foxtel. We saw none of it due to no free to air tv and poor internet that constantly buffers.

Why can’t we #cancel or #suspend @Foxtel #foxtel online?? We can upgrade no problem… but to suspend or cancel we’re expected to make contact M-F?? Are we doing something wrong?

@MicallefPhilip @ParamountPlusAU @10FootballAU Agree there are a lot of issues. But, it's the only way I can watch ALeague/ACL. I put up with far worse with Foxtel streaming during the early yrs, in order to watch ALeague/ACL. And, that cost nearly as much per month as Paramount+ costs me per year!

@Klb0415 That’s terrible. Foxtel is too expensive for me. Never had it. I have Amazon prime which now has the Starz channel which I need to subscribe to. But it looks like Outlander S6 won’t be on Starz channel which is very weird. Why would they not air their own show on their channel?

@Foxtel has great service. On the phone to them today, got transferred to technical support and all I could hear was a barking dog. Rang back and ended up with conflicting information how to upgrade.

@FOXTEL_Help Foxtel your customer service is atrocious. I made 3 different phone calls and everyone of them had me on hold for a very long time then hung up on me. Its beyond a joke how rude your call centre staff is.

(@Klb0415) reported
@Joeyjessie65 It does seem very strange. People were complaining that Starz got it that they would now have to pay extra to see it on their service. I love Foxtel documentaries, so am reluctant to leave, but right now I am just furious that they expect me to pay for a fault in their equipment

@PeterCronau @slpng_giants_oz I don’t have Netflix, Foxtel, Amazon Prime, Paramount+. I’m on the aged pension & my Internet is portable WiFi & it’s **** for any of the above, but I can’t afford anything else. I can watch the ABC though!
