    @Telstra We’ve had Foxtel since before 2010. So can’t do it online. Is there someone I can speak to or should I cancel it and reinstall with Foxtel directly?

  • tonipremium Toni (@tonipremium) reported

    @DrBevIsAghast @NomessTess @noplaceforsheep I have a Fetch TV streaming service and you can (after a while) purchase all the HBOs. Also has BBC First. It’s way cheaper than Foxtel but I wouldn’t get Binge as I ditched Murdoch a while back. Very satisfying

  • vote1neither SuportLocalMusic (@vote1neither) reported

    @Foxtel All the Botox in the world can't help some people

  • ladybminiatures Simone Lymbery (Lady B ) - 💉💉 (@ladybminiatures) reported

    god ******* damn @Foxtel I wanna watch smack down without a satellite technical issue. want me to help you fix that? #mysmackdownviewingwasinterrupted #wearenotamused

  • Kivvi2136 Nelson (@Kivvi2136) reported

    @NHLTVSupport @Dikkja Thanks for putting it on the shittest service in Australia. Running off Foxtel the most expensive. Cleary a money decision not a growth decision there.

  • wombatsamurai wombat🇯🇵samurai (@wombatsamurai) reported

    @Corleone_Roller @BeeSting Although, I too would never wish ill on anyone. He lost me ages ago. Infact I completely cancelled my Foxtel because of the shift. Rowan, and Alan Jones as much as I love them, aren't enough to keep me.

  • croydon_of Suburban Szocks (@croydon_of) reported

    @FinancialReview They are delusional. Foxtel is years behind current players, burdened by stupid bundling ideas and the least compelling service in Australia.

  • KneeboneJason Jason Kneebone (@KneeboneJason) reported

    @cricketcomau @Dave_Middleton And cricket Australia wonder why numbers are down playing the game and watching it when they do crap like this. And P.S to the haters I have foxtel

  • idlovetohaveab1 idlovetohaveabeerwith (@idlovetohaveab1) reported

    @Foxtel I’d rather put Broken glass in my ******

  • von_roxana Roxana Von Hausswolff (@von_roxana) reported

    @Foxtel Don't we have enough garbage on tv already that we need more?

  • RedCruz19 🌈 Gentleman Jack (SewerRat)🌈 (@RedCruz19) reported

    @noplaceforsheep Yeah … Binge is Foxtel’s streaming service … I nearly fell for it

  • benjiman99 Ben (@benjiman99) reported

    @ESPNAusNZ How funny is it that illegal streaming sites offer more functionality that ESPN streaming which is a paid service via foxtel. LOL cya!

  • Veritas_KW Veritas on KW (@Veritas_KW) reported

    I just hope a reskinned Sky Glass doesn't have the issues Foxtel-commissioned devices have had upon initial release. If they did, it'd be a very expensive fix.

  • tisahockeynight Carol 🏒 he's stubborn, too, so it's perfect 🏒 (@tisahockeynight) reported

    @SimonHawking @SamanthaJPell fetch box (unfortunately they don't have an online only subscription option). you can also get ESPN access with a foxtel subscription but it's much more expensive if you're going to be a new customer. for both you need to add the sports package.

  • official_lesdog Les Street (@official_lesdog) reported

    Unless it's a rights issue I can't fathom why they don't have the full match available to watch on the website. They have highlights and a mini match but I want to see the whole game from start to finish. I remember Foxtel was the same with a delay loading the complete game.

  • Task_Override 🍓🦎Anonymous🦎🍓 (@Task_Override) reported

    @noplaceforsheep Never used it, never will. It's a subsidiary owned by Foxtel.

  • i_csunders Sunders (@i_csunders) reported

    @TheEducatedEel Agree 100%. Apparently there will be less Broncos games on free to air forcing Broncos fans to get Foxtel or Kayo. What a load of horse ****!!

  • FlyOpineMonkey Sir Darryl Adams (@FlyOpineMonkey) reported

    I feel like those poor Sports all fans locked into Foxtel. The only streaming provider for Time Team is Foxtel Now. Smashing my ghoolies with a rock would be more appealing

  • DailyHousewives Daily Housewives (@DailyHousewives) reported

    i forget how terrible Alex Perry is as a reunion host, can Foxtel hire someone else to do the reunion? not Joel Creasey 🤮 someone who isn’t such a try hard with their jokes, is there a journalist on Foxtel’s books willing to do it? #RHOS #RHOMelbourne

  • melbourneminker SOCIALISM DESTROYS (@melbourneminker) reported

    @roamingaussie @53pamela_h I dropped Foxtel and @SkyNewsAust years ago. Pure garbage

  • meggsietweets Meggsietweets (@meggsietweets) reported

    @Telstra I’m hist going to cancel Foxtel and start again

  • razerp Pseudo Giant (@razerp) reported

    @cricketcomau @Dave_Middleton there's a lot of cricket that has been taken away from folks who cannot afford a foxtel package beyond basic or have barriers/issues with streaming services. FTA viewers have lost the 50 over game, now T20 world cup.

  • agentsmart Agent Smart (@agentsmart) reported

    Why is ABC News talking about this Real Housewives garbage? This dumbed down, confected shite lessons us as a society, even if morning TV is meant to be lite. Surprised there wasn't a plug for Foxtel, or perhaps it was?. Not like anything important is happening. @BreakfastNews

  • patteeemac Patty Mac (@patteeemac) reported

    @stilgherrian I haven't been down the Binge path yet ... Put off by it being owned by Foxtel. And not knowingly sending any of my money to the Murdoch family ... not if I can help it. Gonna miss a lot of ODI cricket games again this year. Devvoed.

  • Red_Shirt_Dude Red Shirt Dude (@Red_Shirt_Dude) reported

    @Smilan317 I was once on hold for 2 hours with @Foxtel to cancel my account. When I finally talked to someone, they claimed I was transferred to the *wrong* cancellation dept. I told them I was blocking my CC and it was their problem going forward. Two hours later, I got a call back.

  • emuwhisperer MSM cannot be trusted. (@emuwhisperer) reported

    @Foxtel "Good" so will definitely not watch or subscribe to your network.

  • Incognito4476 Incognito👊❤🎞📰👨‍👩‍👧‍👧👼⚽️ (@Incognito4476) reported

    @deniseshrivell @BreakfastNews Is this the target audience Shouldn't this garbage be on foxtel or 9 or 7?😖

  • Missmelbronco melanie shepherd (@Missmelbronco) reported

    @Foxtel Fix your bloody my Foxtel app! I’m sick of it and I pay you a damn fortune! Rip off!

  • PeteWil52408518 Pete Williams (@PeteWil52408518) reported

    @tickerNEWSco @Foxtel Get these snake oil sales arsemagots off our TV today! We don’t need US TV evangelist selling their pile of steaming scam ****. It makes me sick to see these parasites sucking $ from vulnerable ppl by using a pandemic to spread lies to make $ what so called Christian does that!

  • JennyRa51961040 Jenny Randall (@JennyRa51961040) reported

    @Foxtel Never watch it any more. Like all the housewives everywhere, they have lots of money but no class. They are simply tacky.
