Can confirm that the TNT Sports channels are now listing in Discovery+ app - except on SkyQ.

My 'BT Sport via BT' account has opened up access to the BT Sport channels on the 'complimentary' subscription (where listing).

The 'complimentary' Sky account (without BT Sport) says contact provider or gives error messages.

I don't know if those with 'BT Sport via Sky' get access on non-Sky devices.

Those who subscribe to TNT via Sky will get access via Discovery+ on Q, Stream and Glass, just not straight away. As with ITVX, Sky take an age to get into a launch position with these things but it will come. 

At least this whole episode puts to bed the idea that premium sports content would be given away. As expected, any new customer will be asked to pay £29.99 for the premium add-on.

Regards to discovery plus, if you want to watch TNT sports channels via your Sky subscription you will have to pay the premium. You will still get Eurosport though

As you say though, it's not giving you that choice at present on the app, but it will take an eternity just like ITVX

just waiting for the channel changes and numbers on the Sky Q

Just read this

Access to the Discovery+ Premium Plan on Sky (UK)

At the moment, Discovery+ excluding TNT Sportsis available at no extra cost to most Sky users.

Discovery+ Premium, with TNT Sports, will become available in the near future at no extra cost to Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q users who already have added TNT Sports to their Sky subscription.

Viewers who don’t add TNT Sports will continue to have ‘basic’ access to Discovery+.

Warner Bros Discovery was unable to confirm the exact date for this change.

It says 'Coming soon' in press release 

Coming soon, Sky TV customers who subscribe to TNT Sports will also be able to access the Premium plan on discovery+, which will enable them to enjoy TNT Sports via the discovery+ app on Sky Glass, Sky Stream and Sky Q.

[Super+Anthony]

Seems odd that Sky q subscribers have to wait though!! Everyone else will get it from today

Coming soon - discovery+ premium

Sky TV customers with TNT Sports will soon get discovery+ premium included

If you don't have TNT Sports, you'll still get Entertainment and Eurosport content on discovery+ at no extra cost.

Hello 

we will not be getting the sports on discord unless we take out an additional subscription 

if you have bt sport on its own this transfer to tnt. They've really made it all confusing because if you have discovery plus on, already the additional subscription won't be available via that sky platform if you have it on your phone/console or tv. It won't carry over. It's all just nuts totally bonkers 

[Super+Anthony]

Hi, just to clarify, if you purchased BT sports (now TNT) through SKY, we will be getting Discovery Plus Premium. I have attached the link in a prior message on another chain

Please see the below and the link

Coming soon - discovery+ premium

Hi

After BT Sports becaomes TNT Sports on the 18th July, according to reports, its content will also be available via Discovery+. Does this mean we won't have to susbscribe to TNT Sports anymore or will the free Discovery+ not include sports content? Or will free Discovery+ be no more?

Is this a word becaomes?

I'm sure you know what the OP meant. Typos happen.
