    @Kate3015 Just like Foxtel, AGL, & others do, the broken English is so difficult to deal with most times

    @FkYeahMatt I think Kayo just picks up Foxtel channels & re-packages them into streams. Foxtel is focused on their channels & they stayed to the end of the Swans game that ran over due to a bad injury, before they switched to the AFLW. Don't think Kayo produces shows that are on FoxFooty

    @Foxtel Mum is still paying $90/mo for this ****. I've almost convinced her to let it go. The value just isn't there anymore since competition ramped up. She could pay for half a dozen streaming platforms for that much. Unless you change, you'll die along with your last subscribers.

    @jake_w0405 @gilby_gillard @kayosports Yep. Use some remote bullshit to cancel a $40/ month subscription with kayo. Only other way to get your sport is via a “sports package” tacked on to a higher monthly subscription with Foxtel.💅🏻 Pricks.

    @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.

    @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

    @LeagueScenePod Paying fans that get kayo or Foxtel shouldn’t be forced to watch grand finals and origin games on a **** free to air with commercials.

    @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.

    @BigdogGC77 @gilby_gillard @kayosports When you say losing customers? Are people moving over to Foxtel? Or how else do you watch sport? Genuinely curious, I’ve got Foxtel so never had Kayo, seems like a terrible service

    Went to watch the recorded 7 news on IQ. Not there. Then realised all the other programs that should have recorded aren't there either. Has anyone else had that problem with Foxtel?

  • trobb158

    @ColettaFrank @Gatty54 Foxtel are flooding their ‘crap’ programs with the cringeworthy ads for the circus at the White House, calling it the greatest sports event in history.

    @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.

    @SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus For next years Hall of Fame, will Foxtel be asking Crown to serve meals on plastic plates? The sound of cutlery smacking crockery during Bill Walkers elevation was just horrible TV

    Does the commentary team on #foxtel give any coverage at all of #piastri in F1? He’s leading Q1 and Q2 yet they’ve not spoken about him or even shown his laps once. Wtf

    @7AFL Do yourselves a favour …. Watch an episode of “On the couch” on Monday at 7:30am @Foxtel @kayosports AND then watch this 💩 Result = You will never watch Agenda Setters again

    @Foxtel I can’t believe your “support “ is only available Monday to Friday , are you serious ? Or does your monopoly mean you just don’t care ?

    Had to get. IQ5 replaced because it doesn’t have sound and the replacement one is doing the same. How bad are we treated by @Foxtel for the lousy bloody products at globally high prices. Going to make a ACCC complaint. Bloody useless

    Yeah I remember this show on ABC back in the day it was one of those shows when you randomly brain-dead to change the channel or if it was **** all on telly on a weekend or a day your sick, **** even a public holiday and if you're too poor for Foxtel or Austar.

    @Aliceh_1936 It's so conflicting as I pay for a Foxtel subscription and enjoy the NRL via Fox way more than 9, but their journalism department is a bag of *****. I've blocked them on here so I don't see their rubbish clickbait. And on Galvin, **** every journo who **** on him. Wankers.

    @footyindustryAU Foxtel price is at its absolute limit - can’t be jacked. If they didn’t get NRL it was an insta cancel. Now they have so few of the sports it’s no longer a one stop shop it’s a different equation.

  • dougjones90909
    “Smash Her” (@dougjones90909) reported

    @NRLMedia What an awful outcome for fans. Higher prices. Still have to watch the biggest games on nine in their ****** “HD”. Games covered by nine still not in 4K on Foxtel. ******* pathetic. It’s 2026 FFS, not 1990.
