Do sky customers still get TNT sports free on discovery +?

I've tried to watch the football tonight and it was wanting me to purchase a subscription.

The free Discovery+ distributed on Sky hardware has never included the TNT sports bundle. That would be why it's 'free'.

TNT Sports subscribers get upgraded to Discovery+ Premium at no extra cost.

I'm sure we've watched sports before via if and we've never purchased the TNT bundle. ??? I'm confused.

Historically the tier of Discovery+ bundled with Sky included some sports content, including a couple of Grand Slam tennis tournaments and the Olympic Games. It never had Premium content (including Premier League football) because those are rather expensive rights to acquire at about £6,250,000 per match .

As the standalone pricing for Discovery+ Premium (including TNT Sports) is £30.99 a month, it's not going to be something they give away through Sky.

Disagree there as I had the sports up until last week. Watched previous European football however two weeks ago I was asked to log in and found free sports on Discovery app had been blocked and an upgrade was required. It was good while it lasted!
