    @Foxtel Ratioed for having crap services

  • Ninjacmd Christine Dalton (@Ninjacmd) reported

    @Telstra unhappy customer. No internet, Foxtel since Thursday- was expecting NBN technician Monday between 8am to 12pm. Technician calls today and says I am here, we are out. Now Telstra has closed my fault and says they cannot proceed. I need this fixed

  • clovis_dm David Miller (@clovis_dm) reported

    @johnweber94 The worst thing about Kayo is Rupert Murdoch. I thoughI was rid of him when I cancelled our Foxtel sub.

  • CP_93 Conor Plataniotis (@CP_93) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Its always up to date..all the other apps update on the App store for the tv but never has the foxtel app had an update

  • guccigangharry Harry (@guccigangharry) reported

    @BigFletch38 That’s ESPN’s fault, not Foxtel’s retard

  • robertdirob Rob Di Roberto (@robertdirob) reported

    Love the platform, but God the @Foxtel app is really, really bad.

  • AngryExile Angry Exile (@AngryExile) reported

    @Officeworks It’s not a browser or platform issue. I use a VPN. If it’s on I can’t get on your website on my phone or desktop. If I switch it off I can. I’d rather leave it on and while I kind of get Foxtel blocking VPNs I don’t see what difference it could possibly make to you guys.

  • AusAntiLeft OzGayPatriot 🇦🇺 (@AusAntiLeft) reported

    Think I'll cancel Foxtel. Absolutely no point anymore. They're all the same. Andrew Bolt is just a covid hysteric and Paul Murray sits so far up ScoMo's *** it's beyond ridiculous now. Outside of that I only watch AFL. All those channels and cost for one bloody sport!

  • Conigman S B (@Conigman) reported

    @NRLonNine Out of all my years following this game, I have never seen in my life the media protect and praise the ceo/chairman of the nrl as they have done to Vlandys. Might have something to do with the massive discounts he gave 9 and foxtel last year and the new deal he gave fox.

  • PISirBrian His Imperial Highness Prince Imperial Sir Brian (@PISirBrian) reported

    @saintrozzy @unpluggered Foxtel's coverage cut out completely just as Geary was walking in to take that shot. Was out for an hour, like a faux alien attack hit the stadium. Missed the rest of the final quarter completely. Was it a bad thing? #AFLSaintsNorth

  • norbi1414 N B (@norbi1414) reported

    @Foxtel Will never give a cent without being forced (stolen $10m taxpayers money to fund campaign to make BS Boy look good by trying to dig up dirt on others that are in essence lies and deceit) to a RWCF cult.

  • that_sadi SK (@that_sadi) reported

    @tenNisEm_ I’m wondering if I bite the bullet and get Stan. First world problems I have Foxtel but they are not showing RG 😫

  • robertnash74 Robert Nash (@robertnash74) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help I rang 133390 - but was transferred to Foxtel from Telstra. Still no closer to resolution- just want to talk to someone

  • 1Swinging_Voter Jill❌ (@1Swinging_Voter) reported

    Why does that Sky News female ask stupid questions? Just makes her look really childish and stupid and annoys the hell out of the people who have paid a Foxtel subscription.

  • bneil33 Brian (@bneil33) reported

    Foxtel Go went down for…3 hours? It sent Twitter into abusive meltdown. I shudder to think how you people deal with real problems?

  • ArtSapphire Athas Zafiris (@ArtSapphire) reported

    Been a @foxtel customer for most of this century and paying same amount for last 5 years. Today when I called to see whether I should extend they decided to increase my rate while at same time losing #ALeague. Made no effort to retain me as a customer. Good riddance.

  • bigfarkenmaxi Damo (@bigfarkenmaxi) reported

    @Foxtel I don’t see anything as I have had it through Telstra for quite a while now. They just tell me you guys control everything and can’t help with any upgrade deals

  • zenbreeeze ZenBreeze🌿 (@zenbreeeze) reported

    @PRGuy17 Gives $30M to FOXTEL but won’t help out Victoria ! Corrupt turdburger !

  • kr_1973 KR (@kr_1973) reported

    @Danza109 **** Foxtel off mate

  • sherridan59 Sherridan Barker (@sherridan59) reported

    @Robfromtaroona @Foxtel @kayosports I HATE Kayo wish I never got rid of Foxtel

  • iambounga MajestikMofo (@iambounga) reported

    @Foxtel yo wtf. Went to watch Mortal Kombat and u muppets want $30 for a rental. What the hell is up with that. Has anybody been stupid enough to pay that

  • Chrisuren7 AussieChris (@Chrisuren7) reported

    Just got rid of Foxtel. To get latest “upgrade” need a satellite dish for what continues to be piss poor service. Saving $100 per month going to Kayo and Netflix. **** em. Murdoch is a manipulative murderer.

  • ChilliBoi4 ChilliBoi (@ChilliBoi4) reported

    Stuck in lockdown, free to air TV so bad! Been through Netflix, Foxtel and Prime. YARGH this is torture!

  • Jhn_mrk86 JOHN MARK (@Jhn_mrk86) reported

    Remember the good old days when @Foxtel had all the sports, and you didnt have to subscribe to about 5 different apps to watch every sport. And you didn't have to rely on Australia's **** internet to stream it. And of course, the red button multi-view. 😭

  • robertnash74 Robert Nash (@robertnash74) reported

    I understand we are moving to IQ4, and are keen to do so. I am a 20 year plus Telstra / Foxtel customer. Landline, 4 mobiles - I just want someone to pls call me and help me.

  • Ross38656908 Ross Proud Sewer Rat (@Ross38656908) reported

    @_shanmoho It did that to me last night claiming “no internet connection”. 4 phones, one tablet and another tv were fine, just Foxtel had a problem. Hmm. #Foxtel #notv

  • WayneLu76671729 Wayne Lucas (@WayneLu76671729) reported

  • chooka_harry Chris Harry (@chooka_harry) reported

    @kayosports @Foxtel hey guys now that the barrage of disgruntled subscribers has settled down, are you able to provide some sort of explanation for the amateur hour that you coughed up Saturday night? Thanks.
