    @JOSH______NZ @skysportnz Did the exact same here with Foxtel, it’s a ****** joke…. Then he got blocked and Croftey goes “I didn’t think it was all that bad to be honest!” They barely acknowledge him at all, it’s farcical.

    @gothedees36 @cmkusher @kayosports Hasn’t Foxtel shutdown the cable service, ie only new internet connections?

    @onepercentas @Jonesracing82 Constantly jittering. Ridiculous to suggest Internet is the issue. Have no issue streaming live EPL or even live sport on Foxtel app. Yet Kayo constantly jitters and stutters.

    @HEdwardfan @luannsmugshoot @Foxtel It really wasn’t that bad just in comparison to the other seasons it fell short but I still think they deserved a 6th and I’d be more inclined to believe it’ll come if they hadn’t teased it for the past 3 years 💀

    @JSchloeman45114 @RightPulseNewss Yes that's right! It's the same where I am, people who don't have Foxtel only get to see Local news & the ABC news which is very Biased to the Labor Government we have. Albanese puts Australia LAST and we're heading down the same path as the UK fast!

    @AdamShurey @MikeCarlton01 Weird I've had subscriptions to hello fresh foxtel and anytime fitness cancelled all of them never had any of those issues. But then again I'm not a complete idiot

  • AlanBailey2

    @Foxtel can someone explain to me why I can stream ANY movie on ANY streaming service no issues. I can play MMO's at 60fps, no issues. But, I cannot watch a simple game of NRL without you guys killing my viewing pleasure with 2 minutes of game time, and 5 minutes of buffering?

  • Michael1953_202
    Miles (@Michael1953_202) reported

    @Telstra New NBN, wanted Foxtel, bought Fetch. But Fetch can’t get Foxtel, can’t cancel, no refund no return, throw the Fetch box in the bin, or they said “they would recycle it responsibly”. Now I want some real science, an energy balance not virtue signalling .

    @ThoughtVacancy @wayne_kag @AlboMP It is a problem and it bloody well exists!!! Ever tried cancelling Optus Sport, BigPond Broadband or Foxtel? Try listening to Optus's "give me the simple life" hold music for 2 hours.

    @StreamOnMax please fix your app. It glitches at every pseudo ad break requiring a restart. Super annoying and so cheap. #foxtel @Foxtel

    Lexi (@InternetPiglet) reported

    @tresantes Sidenote i think i might be the reason foxtel now makes you sign up for every channel to get the documentary ones at all now, because i was watching that **** for like 10 hours a day for years and only paying $10/mth, it had to have been a loss for them

    I'm almost done with @Telstra. Two months in a row I've had bill problems with Foxtel by Telstra. I tried to cancel it a couple weeks ago but they gave me a good discount. Get new bill today, discount applied BUT the price of it went up, wiping out the discount. 🤬🤬

    @krzyasf4u @Vin_cent00 Nah just never watched this. I was a Ben 10 kid back in the day plus only my Grandma had Foxtel so I had no access to this show

    King Pauly (@SirSonicPauly) reported

    I don't understand how company's like telsta, foxtel etc Keep increasing prices but you get no extra value or better service or anything. Bills keep going up and the government just wants to tax us more and does nothing about it.

  • ARTCvan
    ARTCvan 🍉 (@ARTCvan) reported

    @SulloReport also kayo as a service is no longer worth $40/mth or whatever it is now 😭 terrible reliability, with no support for F1 TV features unless you pay Murdoch even more money through Foxtel, and graphical issues half the time...

    @onepercentas Was told by @Foxtel employee, when i wanted to go to @kayosports , that it would be a stupid idea for 2 reasons 1)they can reduce my bill by 50% just coz I threatened to leave 2)kayo is an inferior product,prone to drama, owned by foxtel to "appease the tightarses" end quote.
