For this reason alone I am considering cancelling my Eurosport to get the 1/2 price renewal offer and stringing that along as far as possible. Next year's prices may be prohibitive.blazing_saddles said:
One thing for sure is that next year, £59-99 for a year won't even be the 50% off price.
£19.99 till the then of March 2023 is not too bad. 😎The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

£19-99? How did you manage that? It's a tenner less than the current offer on Discovery.pblakeney said:

See above - same for me. £19.99 until June 2023. Just went to cancel Eurosport on the phone app, and it immediately offered me 50% off the Eurosport price. Not interested in anything else Discovery has (and probably already have it on the TV package anyway).blazing_saddles said:

Ditto. Thanks for the alert to the opportunity.

I did it on the web, so I will reactivate and then cancel again via the app on the Fire Stick.

Thanks for heads up

Didn’t work on the app for me.
Probably because I had switched auto renew back on a couple of weeks ago.
Oh well, such is life. That £20 would have paid for 10 minutes of my new energy bills…"Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.1 -
What’s the coverage like on ES Player? I’ve not been that impressed with GCN+ so I think I’ll cancel it.
Presumably you get the full races like on GCN+ but none of the documentaries etc?0 -
That's my guesstimate summary having used ES but not GCN.ibr17xvii said:What’s the coverage like on ES Player? I’ve not been that impressed with GCN+ so I think I’ll cancel it.

Pretty much nailed it on the head. We do use both. Wife pays for one, I pay for the other. GCN is likely to be they way ahead for us if the BT Sport/Discovery+ tie-in goes ahead.ibr17xvii said:What’s the coverage like on ES Player? I’ve not been that impressed with GCN+ so I think I’ll cancel it.

Personally I find GCN a little easier to navigate but it fairly minor differences.1 -
I thought gcn+ had more coverage plus docs (minus other sport and now the rest of the discovery 5h1te). Some of the docs are ok if you’re bored but nothing I would pay for.
At one stage Gcn had Ad free coverage not available on Es, but I think you can get that on Es too now?0 -
Yes, it is available on ES.Mad_Malx said:I thought gcn+ had more coverage plus docs (minus other sport and now the rest of the discovery 5h1te). Some of the docs are ok if you’re bored but nothing I would pay for.

Just cancelled and then renewed at 19.99. I've been happy enough with just ES so at that price I'm chuffed.2020/2021/2022 Metric Century Challenge Winner0 -
I get ES on Sky & only did GCN+ last year as I was curious & it was only £19.99.
Not sure if ES Player would be worth my while or not.
The coverage in GCN+ IMO isn’t great. I watched the rerun of the CX Worlds that had commentary cutting in & out which then disappeared for pretty much the whole race.
It was amateurish to say the least.0 -
Unless you like adverts for funerals and dog charities, £20 is a small price to pay for a full year.ibr17xvii said:I get ES on Sky & only did GCN+ last year as I was curious & it was only £19.99.

The Player gives you ad-free and the choice of audio feeds, which is better than the channel. Worth the £20 (if you can get that price). It does not give you the GCN documentaries. Your choice.ibr17xvii said:I get ES on Sky & only did GCN+ last year as I was curious & it was only £19.99.

True but when I already pay for ES on Sky I feel like I’m paying twice for pretty much the same thing if that makes sense.0 -
The coverage on GCN and ES player is identical. All the audio issues you reference were on both. One sided conversations and poor volume levels for interviews are common.ibr17xvii said:I get ES on Sky & only did GCN+ last year as I was curious & it was only £19.99.

Still better than adverts.0 -
ES Player / Discovery+ is coming up at £29.99 for the 1st year for me.0

I get it in my TV package as well, and consider £20 for the eurosport player to be well worth it. Honestly, worth it alone for not seeing another advert for Baku.ibr17xvii said:kingstongraham said:

The catch up service is excellent. All providers should aim for that level of service.kingstongraham said:

And you get asked if you want to watch live coverage from live or from the start, and can rewind live coverage.1 -

Basically your paying the extra tenner for the documentaries etc on GCN+ which I can do without.0 -
