Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 91 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many consumers strongly feel that the streaming platform is driven by pure corporate greed, charging exorbitant monthly subscription fees while constantly bombarding viewers with endless and repetitive commercial breaks during live sports and entertainment events. Some reviewers were not happy with the clumsy application interface, noting that searching for favorite shows, checking schedules, or navigating menus has become extremely complicated and frustrating. Furthermore, people frequently mentioned annoying technical problems, including sudden login errors, unexpected streaming dropouts, and persistent difficulties trying to manage accounts or cancel unwanted auto-renewing memberships.

I wish I could give this zero stars

I wish I could give this zero stars.
Absolute disgrace that they are expecting sports fans to pay £31 per month instead of £6.99 now Eurosport and TNT Sports are merging. How on earth can you expect people to pay that! I mainly watch it for ski jumping and paying £31 per month to watch the ski jumping is daylight robbery. You will loose a ton of sports fans and have joined the disgraceful group of media companies that are continuing to punish sports fans that don't have mega bucks to afford these crazy sports subscriptions.
The TV app is absolutely rubbish, it buffers and freezes constantly, but I persevered as it was the only place I could watch my favourite sport.
AVOID DISCOVERY PLUS EVERYONE!!

Why would anyone pay £31pm when they only watch snooker?

You have just removed my 6.99 a month package and put me on the basic 3.99 a month. My only reason for subscribing was to watch snooker. But now I would have to upgrade to your premium package at £31 a month to continue watching snooker!
There is NO WAY I am paying £31 a month when I am NOT interested in other sports.
You have just cut off many UK snooker fans by doing this, and I for one am cancelling my subscription. There is NO justification in charging £31 a month when the viewer is only interested in snooker, surely you cannot think this is reasonable?

For the low price subscription I find it better value than prime netflix etc despite the moans of the others below, the one true thing that grinds my gears is the burger king ad played over and over again no matter what you want to watch,yes there's ads ( shock!!!!utter horror!!!) but Will there ever be different ads? Ie are we forever doomed to the same burger king ad till the end of time!! Pushing a failing junk food company like burger king won't bring costumes no matter who makes the delivery, other than that the app is great!! FYI!!!if you have sky TV? Well discovery plus is!!! Included with your sky subscription in the UK!!! That's how I discovered the app and have watching discovery FREE for 5 years and uf £3.99 pm month Is too much??? It's not the app for you

Too many adverts for pay tb

It's got the cycle racing I want to see. I watch a silly dating show but the Ads are killing the enjoyment. If I pay subs to Netflix then there's no ads. Discovery need to reduce the ads. Itv has less ads and that's free.

Discover plus is a paid subscription to which we do not expect to have to watch adverts - i pay for Disney plus, paramount, prime and Netflix and none of them show show adverts but discovery plus do which is soooo irritating especially now they I get 4 to 8 at a time - i pay for adverts free streaming - if i want to see adverts i would watch your channels on sky tv!

Sort it out!

WARNING NO FREE TRY IN THE UK

WARNING NO FREE TRY IN THE UK. The website comes up with a 7 day free trial. However when I cancelled 3 days later I was told it was only an offer for the US but of course there was no flagging that up as I signed on. Shocking shortsighted way to treat customers, will never have anything to do with them again.

If only I could give 0 stars to this pathetic excuse for a streaming service.

The app itself is slow & lags constantly.
Live sport? Forget it! Buffers every 5–10 seconds.
The help service are useless - “have you tried turning off your tv and turning it back on again?” 🤣

Complete joke - avoid, avoid, avoid!!!

Awful company

Awful company. In app purchases for things that seem to be offered for free in adverts for channel. Sky should be ashamed for teaming up with these thieves.

Total utter rubbish

Total utter rubbish. All we need to do is to access the app. Why make it so complicated? I gave up trying to watch a Premiership rugby match, it would have finished by the time I succeeded. A complete waste of time. Dump it.

Don't buy it, faulty app!!

Terrible clunky, faulty app that crashes all the time and often has no sound. An absolute joke for the subscription cost. Customer service is slow and avoidant when asking for a refund.

Such poor quality

Everytime I watch anything on TNT sports its like watching on a TV from the 70s. Buffers, poor quality. All my other channels are fine and Sky say its the broadcaster who is the issue. Please sort this out. It's criminal that I pay a lot for an HD channel and get worse than SD

£31 pm for adverts (scam artists) cancelling!

£31 pm for adverts. Adverts. Adverts, adverts. Not even good adverts. The SAME boring adverts. This is not what I expect to pay ... For yes... You guess it ... More damn Adverts!! Rugby on TNT, yes buffering initially, but sorted out when watching from beginning. (not live). Thankfully! Grey enough! Premium Plus + Adverts = Unethical Scam at this price!
