  • ajhill_alan Alan Hill (@ajhill_alan) reported from Newcastle, State of 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.

    @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.

  • LordNPrior Nicholas Prior (@LordNPrior) reported from Maitland, State of New South Wales

    @TheCurbAU Because I use my parents Foxtel login

  • MichaelJohnsen6 Michael With Two Y’s (@MichaelJohnsen6) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    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

  • nickintheworld Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported from Newcastle, State of 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.

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of 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

  • gjblue Greg Blue (@gjblue) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

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

  • Willlowtree4 William Low (@Willlowtree4) reported from Raymond Terrace, State of New South Wales

    I don’t know who’s decision it was to no longer air @FallonTonight out here in Australia. Whether it was just @Foxtel or @jimmyfallon himself but whoever it was please fix this. #bringbackfallon

  • hecivan70 Ivan Hecimovic (@hecivan70) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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.

  • josundq josund (@josundq) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

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

  • fat_lenny Lenny (@fat_lenny) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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

  • Canceratops Sevan Costanza (@Canceratops) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

    @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

  • _Blessing B L E S S I N G (@_Blessing) reported from Newcastle, State of New South Wales

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

  • nickintheworld Nick Williams (@nickintheworld) reported from Newcastle, State of 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

  • ShaunOfTheFuzz Darragh Ruddy (@ShaunOfTheFuzz) reported

    @ZenqaCOD @binge I don’t want foxtel, I want the service I’m paying for to be at the market standard. Why would I want to install dedicated hardware and spend more than I want to on packages that I don’t care about just so I can have an equivalent experience to literally any other streamer?

  • ShaunOfTheFuzz Darragh Ruddy (@ShaunOfTheFuzz) reported

    @John_Brown51 @ZenqaCOD @binge No, binge is a streaming service owned by foxtel, the guy above is saying I should get the traditional foxtel packages, because they have 4K, I’m saying I have no interest in the traditional foxtel offering.

  • 30yrnr Scott Adams (@30yrnr) reported

    @simonhill1894 @aleaguemen Have barely watched a game this season. Used to watch eighty per cent of the games on foxtel. Ten coverage/accessibility very poor in comparison.

  • keannaling leanna💫 (@keannaling) reported

    When I was working at Australia’s worst telco, I sold myself “free” foxtel purely for the sales commission

  • gratji1 Maggie Hunter (@gratji1) reported

    I am fed up with Foxtel. When I call, I am not given the opportunity to tell them what the issue is. Everything is not easily resolved by you doing a reboot. This is a substandard so called service. I’m going to cancel my subscription.

  • JasonSman21 Jason Sman21 (@JasonSman21) reported

    @AdamCurley0799 @kayosports Foxtel $35 per month for basic Foxtel and sports package If you can’t get that deal on signup, when you try to cancel service they will offer you this deal to make you stay with them.

  • FOXTEL_Help Foxtel Help 📺 🆘 (@FOXTEL_Help) reported

    @laurencecapel We apologise for any interruptions. If you're still having problems send a DM and our team can resolve your issue, but, if not, you can watch a replay of the match via the beIN SPORTS CONNECT app which you can access as Foxtel residential TV customer or Foxtel Now customer

  • ajobbins Adam Jobbins (@ajobbins) reported

    @agentK @stevebiddle @Subwaynzz I think the big issue with Sky, was having to buy a base pack with barely a anything you want, even if you just wanted movies or sport. Streaming is a different problem - fragmentation of content. We have Binge here, which is owned by Foxtel as is under $20 month but has most 1/2

  • nickcat7 super multi tips (@nickcat7) reported

    try this Say your noy working any more, lets say you got no real loans to pay, so just the normal bills, phone, insurance,foxtel,car stuff, and money for week to week living, How much do you think you need each week? We just did a break down and was surprised try it

  • NBLpocketpod NBLpocketpodcast (@NBLpocketpod) reported

    People talk about the BBL being in trouble (rumour has it Ch.7 wanted out of its TV deal). Perth had 53K+ at its Finals game, 502K watched on FTA and 330K on Foxtel. Its ‘viewership reach’ must have been in the millions!
