joan Reynolds (@joanReynolds52) reported@RBJRON @strangerous10 I’m with you. Haven’t bought a Murdoch rag since 1997. Never subscribed to Foxtel and, for my own sanity, never tuned into Sky. Don’t walk into a Harvey Norman shop and avoid anyone else who advertises with the Murdochracy
-
Jason robert (@JasonR69737) reported@SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus Would the AFL be secretly hoping that Foxtel retain the broadcast rights to the NRL given that it's foreign ownership would have to consider the network's future if it lost the NRL?
-
jkb (@Perthkiwi3) reportedWtf, what's going on you overpriced pricks @Foxtel #NRLRaidersPanthers
-
Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported@LeagueFreak Kerry Packer believed you bid the maximum you can so if you loose to anyone else - you know they will be worst off than you. Foxtel knows it will lose half their subscriptions if they lose the NRL. And that means it will go broke because they already over paid for the AFL.

Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedLate to starting Dynamite because I had to install a new cable box (**** @Foxtel btw). But starting now so hopefully it’s a good show #AEWDynamite
-
Voicey (@Dubhgall90) reported@pantherman45 Kayo is all ready $46 a month for a flawed service. How much does it go to if Foxtel has to pay more for the NRL?
-
Chris (@Vossy7) reportedLogging into Foxtel to see Newcastle up 42-38 What ******** is that? Congrats on ******* up your product @NRL
-
Mr. 4days 🇦🇺 (@Mr4days__) reportedKayo is such a rubbish streaming service, all thanks to those retards at Foxtel for giving them exclusive broadcasting rights. When the Footy is over I'm gonna buy another region's F1TV and watch there. This is garbage.
-
Ben (@benno_76) reported@mcdonellaussie @DisneyPlus I get ESPN through Foxtel. Would never think to use Disney
-
mªdcªtjo (stay) 2.0 (metres away from me) (@madcatjo2point0) reported@MikeCarlton01 I watched a few episodes of "The Mansion" (an ABYSMAL sketch comedy show he co-hosted on Foxtel) & as such have always been "triggered" by him. I thought it was me, but nah he sucks. Grace Tame is a deadset legend.
-
2 Passionate Blue Baggers (@2_Blue_Baggers) reported@adriansal80 @SC___Scout You got a foxtel box or the streaming version of foxtel? Cause I can’t handle Kayo. The streams are awful. It’s delayed and the app is beyond pathetic.
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.
-
George Munro (@ornums53) reported@1116sen Because Ch7 "Allegedly" have the footy rights but have 4 less games than Foxtel. No footy on Sat's poor elderly that AFL don't get any Sat footy anymore G but what would you blokes care. Broadcaters fault. And camera work is pathetic. Game is in chaos. Poor Laura took the hit.

Anna (@spannaforce) reportedIs there a problem with @FOXTEL_Help ? I keep getting playback error message
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedLate to starting Dynamite because I had to install a new cable box (**** @Foxtel btw). But starting now so hopefully it’s a good show #AEWDynamite
-
Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported@Sarcastic_Cow @FOXTEL_Help Costs keep going up and standard going down. Few years ago there would be maybe 2 or 3 replays for every club.
-
lady galadriels 🏏 @ mtcg - ishkh khakfe andu null (@miss_reys_mind) reportedtakes 3 ******* hours to watch a one hour show on hbomax with foxtel. buffers more than what you see play. on top of that the wifi drops from foxtel too. hbomax app doesnt work straight through the tv anymore. IHNFI why. i just want to watch euphuckingphoria
-
Angry E𝕏ile 🇺🇦 (@AngryExile) reported@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.
-
Ben (@bennyshelts) reported@andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.
-
emily (@embankss_) reportednever forget when my family had foxtel iq and my dad had every single episode of bar rescue recorded
-
Nigeyboy (@Nigeyboyl7do) reported@codenrl **** Phil gould he is a ****** . Cannot stand that we have too watch channel 9 coverage of the game , it’s so much better on Foxtel.
-
Wikus van de Merwe (@Wikus_de_mere) reportedHas @Foxtel been breaking down for everyone else or just me today?
-
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?
-
Piewarmer (@poundtown777) reported@Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help How are we meant to watch anything when we keep getting playback errors popping up the last 2 days? Surely you come up with a resolution
-
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
-
Heidi van Delft (@heidipie2010) reported@PieNorthern @Foxtel The netball was on earlier… it was agonising watching it stop starting all game. I can’t even get social media on my phone because of the Wifi signal, it’s been getting worse every day at my house.
-
TJ (@fantasyallsport) reported@Sharkydave44 Nine has the money from the Domain sale. Yes, Dazn would be incredibly stupid to lose the rights after forking out for Foxtel. Dazn has shown some form in trying to lowball sport bodies I don’t believe the numbers have been agreed on, I do think the NRL would prefer not to move
-
Dustin Spriggs (@DustinSpriggs4) reported@puntingbattler @WSWanderingEels It’s near useless data imo. It doesn’t include Foxtel. It may be the same for Ch9 and the NRL but the Ch7 AFL commentary is garbage. No one that has the choice would be choosing that and the ads after goals
-
@The_Tony 2023 🏆 (@the_tony) reportedFoxtel must be desperate to sell tickets for the Fredumb 250 UFC disgrace, poor old Gerard has to keep pushing the broadcast at every commercial break.
-
Les Slee (@Manlyles) reportedIs there a worse company to deal with than @ Foxtel absolutely **** service
