Cant chromecast foxtel

So I’ve always used my chromecast with foxtel, never had a problem, all of a sudden I keep getting an error message saying something went wrong… I can cast fine from Netflix Disney etc still  

Ive rebooted the chromecast, removed device and reloaded, rebooted my phone, anyone else having this problem? The chromecast icon is still on foxtel just keeps giving error msg!

Hi, I am having exactly the same issue, it all worked yesterday, tried resetting but no luck. All other apps cast fine (Disney, YouTube etc) it’s only Foxtel that shows ‘something went wrong’ screen whatever I try. 

Thanks for reply, hopefully just a foxtel glitch then… I might call them tomorrow and see

Ok so I found something about how many devices allowed on foxtel, thought it was a long shot but I deactivated one of my old phones in the foxtel app settings that I don’t use anymore and mine is now working again! Weird that I haven’t added any devices so unsure why all of a sudden it’s decided I had too many linked to it… also they count the chromecast itself as a device.
