    @LisaB_29 $350 is not bad compared to foxtel & Kayo.

    @JonesPam7777 @OMGTheMess Kinda sorta bloody oath. I got my pay rise, I'll be paying $22k in tax plus all the other taxes and council rates and water rates and electricity. Then I pay for Foxtel and internet and mobile phone. And then have to eat. And I don't live in a city. Poor people who do.

    @terrypunter5 @kayosports Hmm. That shouldn't be giving you too many issues. I admit I switched from Foxtel to Kayo a while back to save some $$. My Kayo experience was also very poor, to the point I couldn't stand it and had to switch back

    @timellisau @Jousting_Sticks Never used Foxtel but I always assumed they deliberately made Kayo so ****** you had to pay the extra $$$ to use Foxtel and get extra features like 4k.

    @TopherField I have a conspiratorial hypothesis that may interest you regarding NBN The backbone of the Australian military communications at home was a rotting copper wire network and needed to be replaced, but pitching the Australian public on spending billions on military getting a communications upgrade was a hard sell So instead the two majors went at each other on two different versions of the same dumb idea, fiber to the premises vs fiber to the node Now we have ****** fiber optics speeds because it's being speed capped with software, and ironically NBN is the same old HFC (Hybrid Fiber Coaxial) technology that Foxtel had installed for years 🫠

    “There might be a change in broadcasters” Reading in far too much: - “might” - All on Sky on table? - No BBC? Bad IMO - huge reach. Unless ITV want it to add to rugby pfolio - On Pay TV. DAZN? Owns Foxtel so aligned with NRL, but £26 pm. TNT? Not the same production quality

    Foxtel is worth about $4.99-$6.99 a month, it’s full of commercials… cancel your Foxtel now

    @Darcy_Cosgriff @NicNegrepontis This has always been the case, make Kayo so **** and we can squeeze a few extra $$$ out of people when they sign on to foxtel.

    @vanOnselenP I wasn't poking fun at you just using a factual example . If this game was on Foxtel / ABC its a non issue .

  • wallybechara
    wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported

    @WSWanderingEels All those games where afl show multiple games on seven as one game, the Foxtel ratings would be awful. Guess we never know but I used to see some games getting 80k on Fox. On par with what a league and super rugby used to get

    BomberSteve (@Bombersteve) reported

    @ShereeJohns @jagra1525 Absolutely, hands down the worst cricket commentator I have ever heard. Can Foxtel not hear him?? Same sort of boys club selections at Foxtel as the Australian cricket team have. Name before performance.

    @sportandracing @AussieNinerGuy @footyindustryAU Um Yes AFL broadcast agreement with the Seven Network & Foxtel includes built-in annual indexation Compound Growth: The contract features an in-built indexation rate, which represents a compound annual growth rate of about 3.6% for the rights fees over the life of the agreement

    @banditkayfabe WWF RAW was on Fox Sports 1 on Foxtel at 8.30pm on a Tuesday night for us. Always a few hours late but I was glued every week for about 5-6 years solid without fail.

    @RhondaGarad @SBSOnDemand I was trying to remember when SBS started, was it commercial free like the ABC & then converted to a commercial network or was it always commercial? The fraudulent Foxtel told ppl pay this subscription fee for no adverts, that soon changed

    @Foxtel to be fair it was probably an individual's response and not a common call but you would think it would be included in training to treat such instances with more sensitivity.

    Foxtel hasn't got a single nrl or afl replay available from this week. What a useless piece of **** this service is.

    @landry235 I very much think, Sue, that you and I are in the same 'Club'. I'm having a terrible time at the moment. I'm staying with Mum in Sydney and frankly, I think I'd feel more welcome and comfortable in a morgue. These things were sent to test us. And that reminds me: on my 50th birthday I hadn't heard ANYTHING from Mum by 5 in the afternoon, so I decided to phone her instead. She answered the phone in a foul mood and said she couldn't talk right then because she was having trouble with setting the Foxtel box to record the news! And then she hung up 🙄🙄🙄

    @hillfolkAU Yep let’s sack the guy who was COO for a private uk bus/train operator and worked as a higher up in London rail for someone who’s experience was customer operations at Foxtel … Maybe she’s good but wish they indexed more on transport expertise 🤷🏻

    @KobieThatcher I'm still unsure how they measure how many people watch it as I've never seen a survey for it. Free to Air over Antenna is receive only as is Foxtel over satellite. I don't know many that watch FTA via the app.

    Given how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1
