  • creativejimsez Creative Jim 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 📷 🖥🍷🍸🇦🇺 (@creativejimsez) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @LFC_Australia @DanMacPherson @StanSportAU Indeed. Same **** as Foxtel pulled for years 🙄🤮

  • stephen17859135 stephen harrison Lord of Sewer Rats (@stephen17859135) reported

    @aussitai @LesStonehouse Nah, Labor will **** in, too much corruption in the LNP, even old ancient Yank fart Murdoch wont save em, no one buys his **** rags now, the *** has lost 400 000 sales in five yrs, Foxtel loses millions, nobody buys the OZ. or Daily Smelly. Morrison is loathed by so many.

  • TimboRoberts Tim Roberts (@TimboRoberts) reported

    @_CharlesMurphy But all HBOMax titles in Australia are managed by the ********* at @Foxtel on their #Binge Service, and with no subtitles, no plans for 4k, and bad customer service. No wonder pirating those titles is huge here. @hbomax you're losing money to these shills.

  • bigmanvandijk noah (@bigmanvandijk) reported

    @lfclachlan Oh I have Stan already but $25 is so **** I might just bin off Foxtel

  • joshthelad3 josh ladd 💉💉 (@joshthelad3) reported

    @FFACup @simonhill1894 Can’t watch via TV App, need to chromecast via my phone..joke that is what 10play APP is for TV….never thought I’d miss Foxtel coverage..but gees how bad is @10SportAU and their IT department re the TV app. 2nd night in a row

  • LizPata Liz (@LizPata) reported

    Hey @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel any answers to why I’m not receiving signal?

  • D_Keating D “Now with 5G!” Keating (@D_Keating) reported

    It’s actually amazing that even Foxtel have pulled the NBN’s pants down on this issue. Their IQ5 box is basically streaming only, and guess what bandwidth you’ll need for that!

  • scousehelen Scouse Helen(Helen Drinoczky) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@scousehelen) reported

    @wogscouser @dm_ynwa2 In Australia Optus, Stan & Foxtel all cost extra for their sports packages.We cannot get the sports packages unless we buy also a starter package of channels for each service so i have loads of channels I'll never watch. I only want to watch LFC games,live overnight. A rip off!

  • stevendoyle Steven Doyle (@stevendoyle) reported

    @Foxtel any chance of ever getting cnn in a decent resolution ?

  • BenMerc_1 Benjamin Bodhi (@BenMerc_1) reported

    @Briggs Cancel ya Foxtel subscription ya Peanut

  • stevebr32769071 Steve (@stevebr32769071) reported

    @On_Da_Ball3 Australia post and Foxtel customer service….after a customer complaint service call …..😡

  • spcl88 Sam (@spcl88) reported

    @adamsantarossa I know. Leaving a lot of NFL fans out. Crazy to have a service like Kayo, which for all intents and purposes is Foxtel, but then not offer the most desired product. Not sure who was in the meeting for the one, but a horrible decision.

  • TimeCertainRace TimeCertainClock (@TimeCertainRace) reported

    @speedcafe Afew issues i see are tv rights. Will foxtel be showing all the event? What happens with the pits. Also not fair to the classes who get stuck racing mid week cos not everyone will be able to race saturday sunday

  • ShengW Sheng **** (@ShengW) reported

    @Foxtel never do vaccine The purpose of the vaccine is to destroy and rewrite human DNA, so humans will easily die and be controlled. Therefore, the Illuminati and the dark forces of the universe can enslave human beings on Earth forever. 坚决不打疫苗 疫苗的目的是破坏和改写人类的dna ,

  • KyleJL7 Kyle L (@KyleJL7) reported

    @Hayward_AdamK They need to buy support from Foxtel instead of the other clubs, can't see how they'll willingly fork out extra money for the same amount of games

  • BrittA2211 Toss a Coin to Your Photographer (@BrittA2211) reported

    @Mario__Bones Same with wrestling. WWE has ****** itself with Foxtel deal. It airs live (middle of a work day), then they put the replay up. But, they take up to THREE DAYS to put the replay up. I used to pay for Foxtel just for wrestling and ended up cancelling bc it was never up in time

  • Cristino_NJ Genious_Iam (@Cristino_NJ) reported

    @Foxtel @Wentworth No one will ever take down The Freak 😱

  • SomeblokeS Somebloke Somewhere (@SomeblokeS) reported

    Hey @Foxtel, just wanted to give you guy a huge high-five! I'm a rejoining customer after six month break (need more entertainment in lockdown!) and everything seems improved. Bundled Netflix, Ultra HD channels, Prime coming and self-install, excited about IQ5. Thanks all :)

  • longhornbazooka Desibogan (@longhornbazooka) reported

    @Foxtel we are having some recording issues and with a long wait time I’ve given up. I think IQ3 is one of terrible device. The old Foxtel box didn’t give any trouble ….

  • stephen17859135 stephen harrison Lord of Sewer Rats (@stephen17859135) reported

    @Tim___F @LesStonehouse No the *** has lost 400 000 readers, same as Daily smelly, Murdochs rags stuffed, Foxtel losing millions, his vile empire is dying. People arent that stupid now, they know Morrison is just so corrupt, as is his vile regime, hes lost womens vote, and youngfolks, climate change.

  • bozwhite Boz (@bozwhite) reported

    @JamesK_1312 Another Silver lining to ditching full Foxtel down to kayo

  • igfbss Ms igfbss aus 💧☕🐈🏎️ (@igfbss) reported

    @slpng_giants_oz So glad I have never had Foxtel

  • StuartRandall Stuart Randall (@StuartRandall) reported

    @TestySpice @ESPNAusNZ Yep it's on the watch tab at the bottom of the app. Then sign in with your foxtel/fetch log in. Worked a treat this week.

  • Hayward_AdamK Adam Hayward (@Hayward_AdamK) reported

    @KyleJL7 It’s not about televising an extra game, it’s about subscriptions. Foxtel are supportive according to Vlandys. He has to sell expansion to the other clubs because the other clubs don’t want to lose money to support another club from their share of the tv revenue

  • mightyjets 💧Craig Leonard (@mightyjets) reported

    @diamondphillipz Just got told by Foxtel that they want to increase my package by $25. Filipino girl says nothing more they can do. Good then, so I will cancel and put the $25 to Kayo and save a thou a year. Bye Bye

  • SteveMolk The Guidefather 👍🇦🇺📺 (@SteveMolk) reported

    @gsyoung Yes, and no. Foxtel offer a heap of different channels, so if you combine their audience it's not bad. Also they 'only' have 25% penetration in the market, so they come off a lower base anyway. Nobody has to pay to listen to your community radio station.

    Intermittent @Telstra NBN and @Foxtel issues all of a sudden! The worst timing ever! 🤬
