SupremeBeing (@SupremeBeing888) reportedFoxtel is worth about $4.99-$6.99 a month, it’s full of commercials… cancel your Foxtel now
-
bamberee/Bree (@bamberee) reportedFoxtel asking me if I’m sure I want to delete the two recordings of the game.. never been surer of anything. Would’ve deleted it even if we managed to scrape the win in at the end. #AFLTigersEagles

Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported@SnoogThe Like all these events that “just happen”, if you’re at the ground listening to sports ear of the ref it’s normal after repeated warnings from the ref. Atkins lets things go for a couple times and then says something like “you’re on your last warning”, and then you get these “weird” decisions. I don’t like it - but it doesn’t shock me like it once did. If the NRL were serious about transparency, everyone should be able to receive a ref mic commentary on Kayo instead of the garbage we normally are subjected to recently. Foxtel had this in the mid 2000’s with just crowd mic sounds and the ref. It was great because it felt like you were at the ground.

Phoenix Diamond (@_phoenix_btc) reported@TopherField I have a conspiratorial hypothesis that may interest you regarding NBN The backbone of the Australian military communications at home was a rotting copper wire network and needed to be replaced, but pitching the Australian public on spending billions on military getting a communications upgrade was a hard sell So instead the two majors went at each other on two different versions of the same dumb idea, fiber to the premises vs fiber to the node Now we have ****** fiber optics speeds because it's being speed capped with software, and ironically NBN is the same old HFC (Hybrid Fiber Coaxial) technology that Foxtel had installed for years 🫠

Xanadu 🇦🇺 (@Xanadu251) reported@Foxtel Was long term customer but quit 2 yrs ago. Best thing ever. No such thing as loyalty. Get a firestick or android box. Even Samsung tv has a heap of freebie channels. No customer, no money. Blockbuster vibes.
-
joan Reynolds (@joanReynolds52) reported@RBJRON @strangerous10 I’m with you. Haven’t bought a Murdoch rag since 1997. Never subscribed to Foxtel and, for my own sanity, never tuned into Sky. Don’t walk into a Harvey Norman shop and avoid anyone else who advertises with the Murdochracy
-
Tiger Pops69 (@tigerpops69) reported@A1dynRL @ALeagueHQ Many issues with the A league, its promotion and its coverage. Love to know the audience on paramount + vs Foxtel days… quality of marquee players has gone down hill and it just lacks the spark it had when Melbourne V Sydney on multiple times packed marvel stadium back then
-
Julie Burgess (@julieburgess623) reported@Telstra for 5 days now we have been unable to watch Foxtel as our internet speed is 4.49 as per their consultant. We have contacted NBN who told us to contact Telstra. The person there said the problem is our modem which it is not. We need a solution please Telstra.

Jez - WORLD PEACE PLEASE 🕊️❤️🌍 🇵🇸🇺🇦🇮🇷🌍 (@Jezzabhai108) reported@landry235 I very much think, Sue, that you and I are in the same 'Club'. I'm having a terrible time at the moment. I'm staying with Mum in Sydney and frankly, I think I'd feel more welcome and comfortable in a morgue. These things were sent to test us. And that reminds me: on my 50th birthday I hadn't heard ANYTHING from Mum by 5 in the afternoon, so I decided to phone her instead. She answered the phone in a foul mood and said she couldn't talk right then because she was having trouble with setting the Foxtel box to record the news! And then she hung up 🙄🙄🙄

Piewarmer (@poundtown777) reported@FOXFOOTY @Foxtel what the hell is going on??? Why am I watching 2 channels of footy in INDIAN???? Sort this crap out #afldogstigers
-
Ray Gatt (@Gatty54) reported@Foxtel are there any issues with Foxtel atm? Can’t access. Keep getting the rotating circle
-
Surf n Turf (@surfnturfnsurf) reported@ParamountPlusAU the Chelsea wanderers game is not working through Foxtel app
-
Stewart Noble (@Stewy_Noble) reportedHey when is the app coming for Android 17, can't log in for weeks now. Why am I paying you for no service? @Foxtel
-
Deb (@cDebIn2050) reported@DrG2020V @GregDavis006 From what I have seen on Foxtel, it’s pretty bad
-
Alex Carter (@abbacarter) reportedHas PVL sent instructions to Annesley to ensure the Broncos are still in the comp? Part of the rights deal with DZN / Foxtel or what? Downright embarrassing officiating. Off night from Cleary though, his kicking game was poor #NRLPanthersBroncos #PanthersvBroncos
-
Adam (@AdamTurbil38435) reported@Markedw For the SBS to outbid the likes of foxtel or Amazon . If a publicly funded network can outbid paid services.. maybe it should be looked at
-
Christopher Benson (@BennoOnline) reported@dunek4ck @Foxtel Seems by providing a really **** service they are pushing people onto Kayo... why the hell am I watching nascar while F1 should be playing!!! @foxtel are providing a substandard service onpurpose
-
BomberSteve (@Bombersteve) reported@ShereeJohns @jagra1525 Absolutely, hands down the worst cricket commentator I have ever heard. Can Foxtel not hear him?? Same sort of boys club selections at Foxtel as the Australian cricket team have. Name before performance.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels My idea down the track is Saturday 930 nrl game (good for Perth) feeding directly into an earlier super league game. That would get them decent coin. Like when they go to 11 or 12 games. They can afford Foxtel so much more value down the track, afl can’t.
-
Don 🇺🇦🇦🇺 (@squizzy36) reported@MisinfoFact Who actually watches this stupid ****? I have Foxtel, and I'm repulsed that's it even on there!
-
The Steps (@mcnamara_team) reported@clarke3110 @bondiroosters Yep, Kayo is just the revamped Foxtel rip off. The AFL and NRL have let down the supporters, won’t be long until the attendance to games drops because the general lack of interest is.
-
Crowdiegal (@crowdiegal) reportedRealistically Nine are the only FTA TV network that maybe could afford the World Cup rights. Ten would have to partner with Foxtel. Seven...no way could they do it not with AFL, cricket and maybe NRL on their network...they would be paying a lot for all three sports just there.
-
GWB (@GWB41570523) reported@SkullSpeedDeal "Women"? Who started the gutter screaming? Channel 7 and that Victorian disgrace the Herald Sun. copied and pasted by the circus Foxtel. The yelping poodles following selective clubs and players trying to bring them down. Not women.
-
James Jones (@JamesyJones) reported@OMGTheMess Coalition also handed out $40m to Foxtel. Complete and utter scam. Cash for comment each and every night. There was no tender, no conditions and no reporting. All to a subscription service that cheerleads them every night. But the Right don’t dare bring that up.
-
Darrel Nay (@BlueLionMusings) reported@Foxtel I've been a customer for 30 years or thereabouts and I never get offered these prices - not impressed. Foxtel seems to be more and more women's sports with more and more ads - the value for a viewer has collapsed. Why am I charged almost twice what a new customer is charged ?
-
mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reportedFoxtel will keep increasing the price until they can force all their satellite subscribers over to Kayo so they can close down their superior but more cost expensive satellite services. They want to close all the none sport services & eventually Incorporate gambling options
-
Ramdas Raymond (@chewie1238) reportedFoxtel and Prime Thumbs Down Every Time.
-
Fine Cotton (@mr_finecotton) reported@Foxtel u say u provide the best entertainment & sport.... the latest series of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premiered 19 May 2026 in the USA.... It's July & youre still not screening in Aust - why am I paying $100/mth for second rate service? @HISTORY @BrandonFugal
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.
-
ClayChucky (@claychuckyclay) reportedGiven how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1
