    @FIAWEC @beINSPORTSASIA thatd be right Foxtel ditched its BEIN sports channel partnership a few years back now i gotta shell out for them on top of everything life sucks being a poor schmuck on DSP😕

    @lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.

    @Sam957063743921 @jamesxclean @jarrodwalsh That would've meant a lot, not Foxtel deciding to broadcast his emotional reaction. If you want to see how bad a call that is watch the Crows post of the moment, where they cut Jordan out.

    @CraigTong__ @wayne_kag @AlboMP You ever tried to cancel Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel?

  • SydneyCityTV
    SydneyCityTV (@SydneyCityTV) reported

    @gerardmmkl Are News Corp possibly nervous that Foxtel may lose the NRL rights? Because I'm quite sure that people will follow the NRL to Stan or whichever other streaming service the coverage may end up at instead, just as there was a kind of exodus from Optus to Foxtel about 25 years ago.

    @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

    I'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬

    @Foxtel shitting the bed with the #Anzacday Bombers vs Collingwood game with no game sound. And people pay for this ****. Disgraceful

    @JOSH______NZ @skysportnz Did the exact same here with Foxtel, it’s a ****** joke…. Then he got blocked and Croftey goes “I didn’t think it was all that bad to be honest!” They barely acknowledge him at all, it’s farcical.

    @sashaneedssleep Same on regular foxtel. Might be a SkyF1 issue.

    @FOXNRL The whole game of rugby league is **** now , referee's ruining games and 2 teams that can win the comp , too predictable, get rid of foxtel / kayo it's a joke

    @AlboMP Please make Foxtel number one target! They make it very difficult to cancel and make you go through a lengthy phone call. No online or postal option to cancel.

    @RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.

  • AnInterObserver
    JasonF. (@AnInterObserver) reported

    @kayosports_help moved from Foxtel to Kayo. Mistake. Rarely had an issue with Foxtel, more dropouts and circle of death with Kayo in one month vs 25 years with Foxtel. Running NBN500. If there’s some simple fix let me know. Otherwise, I’ll bank a refund and return to Foxtel.

    @BillWiIdin I was on the phone to a foxtel employee who put me on hold 3 times to go and check her son who had broken her leg. At least she was honest about it but yeah a 15min phone call ended up taking 45mins. Not productive at all.

    @kayosports / @Foxtel why can’t we hear the crowd with your commentary? It sounds like you’re not even there!! Absolutely terrible!! It’s ANZAC Day and we’re stuck with inferior products

    @AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot

  • AngryExile

    @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 don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

  • _all_gone_now

    I misspoke, the Foxtel go app is just as bad as kayo.

    @thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.

    @realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho

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