Too many repetitive ads !

They do my head in !

The Sports Radio Channel

Can’t speak highly enough of TalkSport, it gives you all you need as an avid sports fan. Live coverage- expert punditry - thoughtful incisive discussions and there is still room in the schedule for plenty of entertaining and funny moments. It’s my go to channel that gets me through the rigours of the day and night. Thank you TalkSport!

Average

Talksport have too many average presenters ie Shaban and Gabby who both other nothing to the shows that they appear on
I’ve now stopped listening

There’s always a problem

Constant issues with the app for years. Main problem is that if you listen to a show, pause it, for example at 15 minutes, then unpause it, you will always go back to 15 minutes after every other pause. You have to memorize where you’ve paused it.

Sports Bliss

The app allows me to listen in Canada when I want to. White & Jordan are truly superb….lightning in a bottle!! Cheers, Craig.

Brilliant

Excellent coverage pro people great guys completely beat any of the commentators on the TV

My go too station

Listen all day long. Love it

Hyper-localised California ads for an Aussie?

Only catchup related. From around the start of the year us ads have been injected into my listening experience. While I don’t have a problem with selling ad space over the pom ads, I’m not sure why I need to know about what products a Southern California supermarket has, or even deals a San Diego car yard has. Edited to mention that all ip address/dns/vpn diversion methods were turn off.

Car crash

I love talk sport but every time I use the app it crashes in the first minute and then I have to reopen it and then it’s ok - dire experience

Opinions

Love talk sport allowing football fans to have their opinions combining with a sense of humour ☝️❤️🙏⚽️

Forced updates

Stop the forced updates. At least give the user a choice on when to apply.

Great content but a bit clunky

TalkSport’s great but the app could have more controls like ‘back 10 sec’, a more obvious ‘pause’ button. If there is a catchup page I’ve not noticed it - i think the whole UI should be cleaned up and made more orderly and tidy.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped working on Apple TV

The app used to be fine on my Apple TV until a few weeks ago and not I just get ‘no content found’ errors and it’s unusable. Have deleted and reinstalled to no effect.

Over zealous entry

Never used to have an issue with this app, always found it ideal for listening on the go. However, the last few times I’ve opened the app, it’s been like breaking into Fort Knox. Having to prove I’m human, how many bikes, cars, trains, traffic lights etc. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve deleted it. It’s a radio station, not online banking.

Do you like adverts?

I just listened for an hour and timed it. 23 minutes of radio and 37 minutes of adverts. Get can, cer

Stop with the long ad please

If the stream is not available in my country, don’t wait to tell me after five minutes of ads 😡

and if the stream is available, don’t make me listen to the same silly ad for five minutes as well 🫩

Update Issues

Just updated a few days ago. Now asks for sign in each time which is annoying, plus the “watch live” service no longer works (for me). Why do these updates always make the experience worse. Plus I’m sick of all the betting ads.

Not working outside of UK

Virgin stations now not working outside of UK- keeps says “not available in your territory “.
Always used to. Talksport channels ok
