Broadband ISP and UK mobile operator EE (BT) has today announced that customers of their pay TV service will be able to access discovery+’s extensive coverage of the Olympic Games Paris 24, regardless of what package they’re on and “at no extra cost” until 12th August.
EE TV’s discovery+ basic customers will thus gain access to discovery+ Standard at no extra cost for the aforementioned period, enabling them to stream every moment of the Games live. This means customers will be able to access the following features:
EE TV customers on Entertainment and Big Entertainment get discovery+ Basic with their TV package and will have access to discovery+ Standard at no extra cost. Customers on EE TV Sport, Big Sport and Full Works plans can also get discovery+ Premium, which also includes TNT Sports, with their TV package.

In addition, EE TV customers on discovery+ Basic will also get access to the Eurosport linear channels for this period, which will broadcast wall-to-wall action across every day of competition. Finally, customers can also enjoy the full experience on the EE TV App on Apple TV 4K, alongside EE’s own set-top box range – with multi-room option available at no extra charge. Customers will be able to watch live Olympic content on the EE TV app too.
For those without EE TV, it’s worth noting Discovery+ is running a special offer…
“Olympic Games Special Offer
New and returning subscribers can sign up for the Standard monthly plan and pay just £3.99/month until the end of 2024. Then, on your first billing date on or after 1 Jan 2024, you’ll pay the then-current monthly subscription rate (currently £6.99/month) until you cancel your subscription.”
In other words you can pay £3.99 to get full access to the two week’s of comprehensive Discovery+ / Eurosport coverage of the Paris 2024 Olympics, and then cancel.

Perhaps EE should upgrade some of its 2G sites to 4G, why on Earth are they still stuck in this state?
I see people on certain forums slating O2 – fair enough – but EE are the only network in my area with a site still on 2G! Because they turned off 3G it’s 2G only.
