  • ColBurns1954 Dr Col Burns (@ColBurns1954) reported

    Well...movie making is now a lost art. I blame leftard diversity. Just watched "Breach" on foxtel. Made on the budget of a shaolin monk's allowance with change. "C" grade movie that Bruce Willis cudden save. 1.5hrs of my life that I'll never get back. Pathetic.

  • nemeisofthewoke James Wells (@nemeisofthewoke) reported

    @Foxtel bloody 10 Ads between 2 mins of sci-fi wtf do people pay for? Worse than free to air. !!

  • sharperstill sharperstill 💉💉 (@sharperstill) reported

    @ClaudeCat63 @rohan_connolly Buying or not buying them makes no difference- they’re all subsidised by other News Corp businesses. Cancel Foxtel if you want to make an impact

  • PABadami Prabhanjan Badami (@PABadami) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Evading danger is the very basis of Test match batting and most batsmen at the international level would have trained their instincts to act likewise. These instincts get a stern examination when confronting a loader of serial threats like Cummins and they eventually fail.

  • red_eyed_goat Ash Rogers (@red_eyed_goat) reported

    @dubzz2228 Get your in-laws to give you a login so you can stream it at home mate. Foxtel gives customers that option where you can login to their website & watch the same **** that is on the actual package. It’s sweet as

  • frank_rockett Frank Rockett (@frank_rockett) reported

    @TonyKoc69285191 Disgraceful really. A diminishing number of Australians are buying this crap. Sadly many subscribe to Foxtel to get the sports and the movies. They are gifted with a wallpaper of Skynews which runs 24/7. It’s a health issue. Getting people off fast food and fast news

  • romina2109 Romina Aquinchay (@romina2109) reported

    @Foxtel Anything would be nice, but my Foxtel is down. I have had no help from Foxtel. Thanks!

  • ktdenise 🇦🇺 Katie 🥂 (@ktdenise) reported

    Mum and dad have been down for a couple of weeks now and are staying until Christmas We have Netflix, Stan, Prime, Foxtel Do you think I can get my hands on my own tv remote?

  • questionabubble Tara-Leigh (@questionabubble) reported

    @Foxtel I am on hold with a supervisor, and I have done both of these options previously with no resolution. I would hope it is finally sorted out today.

  • Zachesth 𝗭𝗔𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 (@Zachesth) reported

    why does Foxtel will make you pay $50 bucks and then there are still ads? like wtf??

  • Carnsy Tony Carn (@Carnsy) reported

    @martydaus @MrKRudd One thing I found to do is cancel Foxtel. 3 months later we aren’t missing a thing, other than discovering so much great content on Iview and SBS On Demand 👍

  • Calbert1994 Chris (@Calbert1994) reported

    Foxtel is lit today. NFL on one channel and NBA on the other. **** ye

  • bakermatt660451 Matthew (@bakermatt660451) reported

    A-League & Super Rugby deserve too fail for not staying with Foxtel

  • sezlloydy Sarah (@sezlloydy) reported

    @nicktan77 @AFrenchy91 Foxtel have had a couple of pop ups apologising for the issues they are having with the feed

  • gemsydney1 Dreambig (@gemsydney1) reported

    @FOXNRL Lmao is that call a fight ? Selling a garbage paperview. No one wants to buy Foxtel rubbish

  • SyamaMishra Syama Mishra (@SyamaMishra) reported

    @oysterFAKE They don't sell it here in Aus without the extra **** Foxtel so I'm guessing it's on brand.

  • judywilkenfeld Judy Wilkenfeld OAM (@judywilkenfeld) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help your app isn’t working properly. Logs me out every time. What a drag to have to re-log in multiple times a day. Please fix the issue.

  • Cluelessinkooy1 Cluelessinkooyong (@Cluelessinkooy1) reported

    @david_heath @StanAustralia Even if you subscribed to all of them it’s still a lot cheaper than Foxtel used to be. Plus you can cancel one. Subscribe to another then cancel and pay the same per month. But if you insist on missing out go ahead.

  • TheCraigles60 I'm42 and double jabbed (@TheCraigles60) reported

    @jacsvoice @Foxtel I was watching at my sisters, "Lifestyle" still showing the same series of things they were showing 5 years ago. I'm trying to get her to cancel 😞

  • beerboy182 BEERBOY-182 🍥 (@beerboy182) reported

    Now having Kayo its the first Boxing Day in 10 years I haven’t had to wake up at 4am to watch all 5 #NBAXmas games, just putting that **** on 1.5x to catch up (I did have to now do 530am to catch up early arvo though) (only had Foxtel Go before w/ 30min rewind) #NotSponsoredPost

  • TheCraigles60 I'm42 and double jabbed (@TheCraigles60) reported

    @PureBredGay @Foxtel 100% correct, it's just garbage!!

  • romina2109 Romina Aquinchay (@romina2109) reported

    @FOXTEL_Help Foxtel down in Hillsdale NSW 2036. Merry Xmas, thanks for nothing Foxtel. Always happens just for the holidays. Quite monotonous. Help coming on 29 DEC. I better not be charged for the days of no service or a call out fee.

  • questionabubble Tara-Leigh (@questionabubble) reported

    When you literally have proof and a transaction id from your bank showing you’ve made a payment, but almost a MONTH later - @Foxtel can’t “find it” … Literally who do I speak to for the umpteenth time? If it wasn’t for internets and kids, swear I’d just cancel 🙄😔

  • PureBredGay Wicked Witch of the Western Suburbs (@PureBredGay) reported

    @TheCraigles60 @Foxtel Pay through the nose to watch **** all in their schedule, and 65% of it is ads. I’m quite happy paying more than what I was paying for Foxtel for my 1000 streaming services, because I watch what I want when I want and no ******* ads.

  • romina2109 Romina Aquinchay (@romina2109) reported

    @Foxtel I would be ready, except, as per usual Foxtel has stopped working. Called helpline, no help. Technician coming 29 DEC...Xmas with nothing to watch. This is why people are leaving in droves and going to other services. God knows why I bother anymore...

  • Chris_w_Clem Chris Clement (@Chris_w_Clem) reported

    @FoxCricket @Foxtel @kayosports Worst conversation rate in the history of test cricket

  • BeepBopBlah 👑Mikey🙉🙈🙊🤫 (@BeepBopBlah) reported from Westfield, State of Western Australia
