- There are several rare instances that the "Total Prize Won" graphic message and the value as displayed in the studio are different:
- On February 23, 2022, the "Total Prize Won" graphic message displays incorrectly as "$20,000". Contestant Mel Burich actually won $21,000, as displayed in the studio.
- On May 19, 2022, the total prize value displayed in the studio incorrectly stated as "$10,000". Contestant Andrea O'Meara actually won $11,000, as displayed in the "Total Prize Won" graphic message.
- There are also several rare instances that the minimum top prize, AU$10,000 was not reached. In this season, it happened on episodes:
- 42, where Morgan Higgins left with AU$1,000 as the last contestant standing after missed on AU$6,000 question;
- 75, where Chad Pearce left with AU$1,000 as the last contestant standing after missed on AU$6,000 question;
- 82, where Claire Ristovski left with AU$1,000 as the last contestant standing after missed on AU$6,000 question;
- 88, where Sarah Gaughan left with AU$1,000 as the last contestant standing after missed on AU$6,000 question.
- On February 7, 2022:
- On Todd Ackerman's $500 question, the answer was accidentally revealed before Eddie even said "correct for $500", though audience clapping sound effect does not played immediately after that.
- For unknown reasons, the graphic message "Final Question" accidentally displayed after Taash Balakas left the game, instead of "$100,000", since there are 3 contestants left in the game and the current question was worth $10,000. The "Final Question" graphic appears again after Todd answered the $20,000 question correctly.
- On episodes 10, 93 and 107, the last question win cue uses the wrong cue.
- On February 23, 2022, there is a footage of an episode of Hot Seat back in 2014, where contestant Josh Mackie's grandad, Dennis, made it all the way to the final question, which is worth AU$100,000.
- In 49th episode, after nearly 2 years, audiences have finally returned to the studio. Starting from that episode, Ask A Friend lifeline is now available instead of Ask the Host. Also, the show uses new computer screens from Dell.
- On May 25, 2022, the graphic message when Allannah Smith wins $20,000 accidentally displays "Final Question" then "Playing for: $20,000" instead of expected "Total Prize Won: $20,000".
- On June 20, 2022, Matt Hill became the first known contestant since Jeremy Crocker to answer the AU$250,000 question wrong and went home with nothing. The winner of the night, Wendy Lawrence also answered the AU$250,000 wrong and went home with AU$1,000 having lost AU$99,000.
- On August 4, 2022, during the last FFF question, Eddie indirectly revealed the answer by misreading the question, saying "a bumpy what night" instead of "a what night" before the options were revealed. As the options revealed, Eddie realize his mistake by adding "oh, f". This doesn't affect the outcome as Allison Harding deliberately do not answer since she already secured the win.
- Tim Nixon is other contestant to answer the AU$250,000 question wrong.
