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

    Is there any way I can cancel my @Foxtel through @Telstra I ring the number only to find out that I can suspend my account but no way to cancel. Absolute bullshit. Allow us to cancel it online ffs.

    @VinceRugari I'll be switching my mobile to Optus now that the Telstra 𝘔𝘺 𝘍𝘰𝘰𝘵𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘭 app now becomes merely a scoreboard. And will pay the $8.99pm for Paramount. My dad has Foxtel so I can use his login for Foxtel Go. But I'll not bother with Stan. It's a private tax I can't afford.

    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.

    @NBN_Australia I have taken this up with Telstra on 3 occasions. It's the old Foxtel cable. It apparently needs an upgrade. Not prepared to help

    @mystormteam Yet last year, which did NOT feature the Storm was the lowest. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. That being that the Storm actually do ‘rate’ on TV and are the second highest viewed team behind the Eels on subscription television (Foxtel/Kayo)

  • ChrisCaggs

    Has anyone else had trouble with their @Foxtel IQ4 boxes? We’ve had no satellite since yesterday most probably from the rain but we can’t get free to air channels. I wonder if anyone else in Willoughby are having this issue?

    @kayosports has to have the worst interface all streaming services in Australia. @AFL Can you please move away from the @Foxtel arrogance please.

    thebradthomas (@sanguinocorpus) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @FOXTEL_Help Thanks I should only have to ask once to have my service disconnected, not navigate a gauntlet of extra services Frustrating as a customer... We're done now, thanks for the assist!

    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.

    @Pdudley64 Layer green flag is nice, yeah? I got up at 3am to listen / watch the pre race shows. Just wish FOXTEL’s signal didn’t drop out at the green flag.

  • _carlos_felipe
    Carlos Felipe (@_carlos_felipe) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @Foxtel I requested a relocation and the technician replaced my iQ4 by an iQ3 without my consent. The only reason I still have Foxtel is to watch Formula 1 in 4K. I called you twice within two weeks to bring my iQ4 back and nothing happened so far. Could you please help?

  • Schalke04_Andre
    Andre Baumbach (@Schalke04_Andre) reported from Sydney, New South Wales

    @foxtel you're ripping me off. A new customer who signs up for what I have gets a better box, Netflix Included and about $40 cheaper a month .... if anything, my loyalty should be worth even more than that $40.

    @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.

    @MightyBlueRoar I know !!!! Very poor coverage on it, are you watching in foxtel too?

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help Why in the world does IQ5 just randomly shut down ? 🤬 Happens during footy games NEVER happened with cable!

    @Foxtel I sent an email to Foxtel and tried to make a follow up phone call. But the live chat cut out. My wife passed away on Friday and I have no interest in television so I want to cancel my account.

  • bennyspursau
    Benny™ (@bennyspursau) reported

    @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.

  • RyanSimmonds23
    Uncanny Ryan (@RyanSimmonds23) reported

    @7AFL Whats up with the signal? Its stuttering but all fine on foxtel

  • FixTechStuff1
    FixTechStuff 🛠️ (@FixTechStuff1) reported

    @purplepingers The hole for the Foxtel cable was likely drilled through the channel in the roof iron so water drips down when it rains. Happened with my satellite internet, 30 mins after installers left there was a downpour and a literal torrent of water poured out the wall plate into the modem

    @FOXNRL turn up the commentry in Wests v Parra We cant hear them over crowd noise Foxtel treating customers like **** again

  • Whitehead13D
    David Whitehead (@Whitehead13D) reported

    @kayosports @kayosports_help Foxtel is looking really good with no service and then need to sign into my own tv. Not good enough! I pay for the service and don’t need to sign in all the time, pathetic.

  • BingIsBackBaby
    James Bing (@BingIsBackBaby) reported

    @MrTobyCook @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help The only traction was to say I wish to cancel...they transferred me to their Australian loyalty and retention team who replaced their set top box and gave them a $480 credit over 12 months... I recommend others doing it. They have no technicians or on short support now sadly.

    @LolCowBasement @LolCowBasement You could say Techy I used a piece of myself to make you the ultimate cable box. Yes it picks up FOXTEL. It aims for anything but anything FOX or CBS NETWORK related is a given. You worked for CBS over the Castle hill slide so you left a vocal fingerprint
