@realCarrickRyan Are they allowed to order room service meals ? And, ( tho not likely appropriate to ask parents of a newborn), are they allowed access to the mini bar & snacks & do they get complimentary free Netflix/ Foxtel ?

Holy **** Foxtel are showing season 5 of Junior Bake Off and I’m beyond excited as I got emotionally invested when it was on air in England in November 2019 and I never got to finish it 😭😭😭😭 TODAY IS A GOOD DAY

@Telstra No, but I've seen multiple websites reporting foxtel issues since thunderstorm an hour or so ago. We purchase our foxtel through you. Can you please advise?

@FOXTEL_Help Hi there, just have a question, on my IQ the red light isn’t showing. I’ve restarted the box, is this an issue with the box?

@beeso No, the complaint was about the double dipping. But these are two different deals, with at least one of them standard business practice. Should people be appalled at Foxtel getting grants to broadcast sports behind a pay wall? Certainly. But the ABC has to film games somehow.

@balumbah @ConorMadigan4 Although not a foxtel fan, not blaming them, its business. Just seems odd the govt provides a grant to foxtel to show womens sport and also pays foxtel to show matildas on the ABC. Probably is a govt funding issue of the ABC.

@sarahinthesen8 How does keeping womens sport behind pay wall tv network help promote it? Women earn less than men. They are less likely to be able to afford Foxtel. End result - this keeps woman's sport away from women.

Netflix is so popular all over the world but I don’t have enough money to spend on it as I already have an Australian/ New Zealand streaming pay TV service Foxtel and I enjoy it just as much as I can use the app on my iPhone to stream movies and TV shows.

@mrtonymartin The only thing keeping foxtel afloat is federal funding, the only thing keeping the smirking idiot in office is News Ltd acting as as his PR firm

@AusAntiLeft We moved April 2019 & there was an issue with the Foxtel service moving over immediately due to NBN connection- long story short I had a bundle thing, anyway couldn’t be bothered with waiting so cancelled it. I don’t even miss it, plus I save an exorbitant 70 bucks a month!

@MrKRudd The best way to kill Murdock businesses, NewsCord, Foxtel , Sky, SMH, Australian. is by shutting down all service provided by him and affiliates. You will be surprised how much money you save apart from doing a good deed. Scrutinise what you subscribe to.

@colonelhogans @devalara44 @sarahinthesen8 This deal does my head in. Why would you financially support a rival bidder to meet the obligations of its grant/loan/grift? The ABC should be paid by Foxtel, to help it meet its commercial obligation.

@AusAntiLeft Android tv box, Pluto tv( needs vpn though) way way better than Foxtel. All free. Also airy tv comes a close second. No vpn needed for airy tv. But heaps of ways to get the channels that Foxtel air for free. Mobdro does this but the channels are crap viewing.

@cheryl_kernot As I’ve said before, if you have Foxtel for sport (as I did until recently) you’re effectively paying 3 times. You’re paying Murdoch directly (through the nose at a stupid price btw), and then your taxes are paying Murdoch and for the ABC to pay Murdoch. Good system, eh?

@Telstra has the storm caused an outage? Circuit breaker was tripped and since then our foxtel box wont come back online.

@AhanCricket Kayo sports (Foxtel online sports service) & VPN might work? Will need to pay about 25AUD for Kayo but can often get a 30 free trial. That would see you through the tests
