  Alan Hill (@ajhill_alan) reported 29 seconds ago from Newcastle, New South Wales

  @perthovalman @kevinperry @TheWorldGame @SBS @ALeague @premierleague @Craig_Foster @LucyZelic A cash-strapped FTA network does its best but has no hope of competing with Foxtel (itself scaling back football coverage in the face of its own financial woes) and Optus. I'd blame the government before pointing a finger at SBS.

  @Old_Mate756 @Foxtel Did you fix this @old_mate756. I’ve got the same issue

  @gjblue @samidowd @Foxtel Cancelled mine over 12 months ago. Customer of 15 years, all they cared about was getting their 15 year old box back. Glad to be gone

  @BrettGriffo I'm actually still with Foxtel (only just, on a basic + sports plan) but people have been saying for years they don't want to be paying for crap they don't watch. Worked when they had a monopoly on PayTv but the landscape has changed in recent years and they are paying the price.

  Look I know we all liked to watch the @aleaguemen on mute when it was on Foxtel but come on @ParamountPlusAU wtf is going on? #WSWvNEW

  @WandererAnnie @RBReich @IrritatedAuntie ****, they’ve only gone and gifted Foxtel a lazy 10 million today

  Sick that @Foxtel are still charging full price even though a whole section of their service (sports package) isn’t playing what we all bought the package for. I don’t really expect much else from a company that puts ads on pay tv

  @samidowd @Foxtel Did the same myself last week, amazing response from their customer service team

  Ivan Hecimovic (@hecivan70) reported 29 minutes ago from Newcastle, New South Wales

  @Elia_Santoro I'm gobsmacked that people cannot draw the distinction between the fact that withdrawing support from a major partner (Foxtel) of the A-League in massive numbers was not going to have significant ramifications for the A-League🙄 Had this argument with some people 12 months ago.

  Credit where it’s due. Thanks to @foxtel technician, Chris, who finally installed #Foxtel where I wanted it notwithstanding previous guy, Olly, not being bothered to chase cable down through wall. Shame I had to pay additional installation but happy to have it where I want it.

  @VitoCDoria @vhatelse @beINSPORTS_AUS @SerieA_EN @Foxtel I hope these disputes mean that Serie A rights are bought by @OptusSport. To just do a blackout by @beINSPORTS_AUS is ridiculous

  Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported 43 minutes ago from Newcastle, New South Wales

  @sandylanceley @abcnews Agree streaming will be OK but foxtel has given up on customer service, I stopped ours last week and they couldn't have given a hoot, not concerned at all to loose an 18 year customer

• 
  Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported 46 minutes ago from Newcastle, New South Wales

  @Foxtel No I wasn’t. After two hours on the phone to account services & tech support I should be able to watch it if I can get the chrome cast on my tv to work, which it currently isn’t.

  @sydney263 @Foxtel Not bad. Should be better but I am not complaining too much.

  Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported 52 minutes ago from Newcastle, New South Wales

  @FOXTEL_Help IQ3 box has a fault, booked for next week. Cannot stream Foxtel via chrome cast because the icon isn’t appearing in the app. Was told my account would be able to use multiroom by 11am... still no success. Contacted tech support hour ago, they said they’d call back at 130... Nada

  Given 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

  Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported 3 minutes ago

  @Pivotonian1838 @10 @FOXFOOTY Ditto. Foxtel is becoming quite dear. We'll hang onto it because of the footy but they don't reward you for being loyal.

  Mick (@Av_Gas2) reported 5 minutes ago

  @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.

  @thebigjohnnyd @MercJestr I had recorded something on my Foxtel box, came back to watch it and it wouldn't play it because they no longer had the rights to it. FFS not asking you to keep streaming it, but let me watch what's recorded. This never happened back in the olden days when I recorded to a VCR

  AUSTRLIAN FOXTEL DOWN CANT WATCH THE SHOW WHAT ******** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Glen Appleby (@realglenappleby) reported 9 minutes ago

  @LeagueFreak Kerry Packer believed you bid the maximum you can so if you loose to anyone else - you know they will be worst off than you. Foxtel knows it will lose half their subscriptions if they lose the NRL. And that means it will go broke because they already over paid for the AFL.

  @FSAAustralia @Craig_Foster As it stands today; Tv deal till 2029 (1 game free to air) light years behind Foxtel deal Licensing deal till 2024 re P/R - can this be changed? Salary cap 3m (2010 - 2.55m) Crowds down for 8 of 12 teams last year (scheduling, ticket prices, ground locations - what to fix asap

  Good goal, too bad we missed it because Foxtel are obsessed with showing replays of absolutely nothing #AFLLionsHawks

  @sandylanceley @Channel9 @wwos I think with the new rights deal Foxtel will have the broadcast duties Maybe that may help with the coverage Stand corrected
