  so I’m trying out my “one” free week trial (other markets I know have had a free month) of @paramountplus … on first look, I think Australia’s licensing is so fragmented that the true potential is not coming through… I’ve cut out Foxtel and Netflix now… so I’ll see in 7 days.

  The @Foxtel IQ5 box has got to be the biggest piece of tech shite ever built, whoever thought making everything run through an internet connection is a moron. Even with a fast connection, you can barely ever watch anything in it. Utter garbage system.

  Jay & Silent Bob Reboot is on Foxtel Movies, I'm 5 mins in and I want to stab my eyeballs out. Just terrible.

  @Telstra Weird outage only seems to impact internet connection from modem to appliance via wifi. TV and Foxtel connected via Ethernet still working #Telstra

  Foxtel are advertising the big bash cricket, just waiting for the woke crowd to cancel it as it promotes violence.

  @SkySportsF1 Is anyone getting the commentary audio 1 or 2 secs before the video? Not sure if it is a Foxtel/Kayo thing, or a Sky feed thing? Hearing Ant etc exclaim for an incident a second before we get the visual is a bit off putting.

  @pete_dicko Worst part is the way viewership/broadcast works. Imagine having to fork out money on top of your Foxtel subscription to watch that ****.

• 
  Danielle Lonnon (@DameDivaDan) reported 33 minutes ago from Sydney, New South Wales

  Just to update, there is no internet, no phone line and no Foxtel @Telstra . So there is obviously an outage in the Haberfield 2045 area of Sydney.

  @FOXTEL_Help is foxtel go down? I'm getting playback errors.

  Alexander Swift (@alexanderswift) reported 41 minutes ago from Sydney, New South Wales

  @GuardianAus Note the use of the word coverage not access in the PR but helps boost participation rates. It's a PayTV service, if Foxtel were fair dinkum (love that phrase) they would spend the $10M to provide the coverage, the resources etc and broadcast the sports on free to air🤯

• 
  George Manka (@GeorgeManka) reported 41 minutes ago from Sydney, New South Wales

  @HoganNerd They have been defunding the ABC and SBS to the point where they cannot broadcast sports. So, in order for the government to support sports,they need to fund Foxtel. This will give Foxtel a lifeline to now charge us to watch the sport that used to be for free on the ABC. See now?

  @Telstra Too late . I left. You all are so curious when we leave. Simple.. improve customer service. Respond quickly & efficiently. Not hard. But it is for telstra/foxtel customers.

  Just had to switch to my normal tv due to the FOXTEL IQ5 Box stuffing up again not picking up channels and it's NOT my internet because Netflix works fine Seriously @FOXTEL_Help absolute crap U tell ppl they can't have cable when they move and they get this rubbish #foxtel

  @PeterTOWNSV1LLE @SkyNewsAust Only free to air … Scroll down for Foxtel TV

  Rachael McDiarmid (@RJMcDiarmid) reported 46 minutes ago from Sydney, New South Wales

  @FOXTEL_Help we’ve already been in contact with your customer service. Hence the question. If you record all your customer service calls you will find your representative telling us THREE times that Foxtel will cover the cost of setting up an aerial with their technician. This is a lie.

  @YaThinkN @RedfernMichelle @Foxtel Commercial TV stations have never tested audience for women's sport by actually showing games on a consistent basis. $10m could support netball players so the players can make move to QLD & not worry about money.

  Hi @FOXTEL_Help - why is my television showing quali starts at 1:25 yet it’s 1:20 and is already well underway? You need to fix your TV guide #F1 #ImolaGP

  Mark Fawcett (@mfawcett1977) reported 3 minutes ago

  @Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.

  Jalin Cedar (@JalinCedar) reported 4 minutes ago

  @FOXFOOTY It’s almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer can’t hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?

• 
  Angry E𝕏ile 🇺🇦 (@AngryExile) reported 7 minutes ago

  @Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

  Morsey (@WCE92940618) reported 7 minutes ago

  Let’s be honest @7afl coverage is so much better than @FOXFOOTY this year All they need now is a couple Saturday games and i would cancel @Foxtel

  💧Vratislav Krsek (@vkrsek) reported 8 minutes ago

  @StanSportAU we don’t want advertising during live sport. That’s the deal I signed up to. Now you’ve changed the deal. I’m a Premium continuous customer paying $42 pm. Just like I cancelled #foxtel I will cancel you. #9entertainment

  @MikeCarlton01 I watched a few episodes of "The Mansion" (an ABYSMAL sketch comedy show he co-hosted on Foxtel) & as such have always been "triggered" by him. I thought it was me, but nah he sucks. Grace Tame is a deadset legend.

  @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.

  @GusLefty @BenFordhamLive Yeh but we have a choice whether we pay for Foxtel but no choice whether we pay for your ABC! Some people are slow thinkers.

  **** this, I'm going out today to spend $3k on a media setup. I'm going back to just pirating TV/Movies. It's not because I am not willing to pay, its I am tired of paying subscription services and having everything so fragmented and being Nickel and Dimed by the services. When we worked on HD Streaming in the 2000's we set the foundation up for the industry to make video possible more easier. Even back then convincing Hollywood / TV Networks to abandon physical media for streaming was a huge undertaking in itself. They just were ******* in contracts with the creators of content and couldn't find a way to make online work. Fast forward 20 years later and this is the **** we end up with. It literally is just easier to pirate than its to keep doing this. atm I pay for: HBO Max Stan FoxTel Primewire Paramount Netflix Disney+ BritTv (i forgot to cancel the trial fml) AppleTV+ Its about $160 a month AUD I can't find half the **** i want to watch and the stuff that I want to watch is full of ads, or you have to then pay extra ontop. I'm out. stfu ... I'ma use AI to setup a complete end to end media experience.

  @a_eugol @DanGinnane is a moron. Why do you even listen to him? Doesn't even know the rules. Sucks up to everyone at Foxtel! Goodbyyyyeeeee
