can you buy Moto GP from BT Sport without all the other sports

t4underc4t — Fri, 26 Nov 2021 12:16:43 GMT

When BT Sport came out years ago we used to be given sport for free as broadband subscribers. Of course that all changed and now the price seems to be £25 a month for all sports. I have zero interest in any sport other than Moto GP. I'll never watch football, boxing no matter who is playing / fighting. Has BT ever considered selling a lower priced sport subscription for specific sport types?

There isn't anything like that for BT Sport unfortunately. You can get BT Sport for £15 a month with BT broadband.

You other option is to take out a MotoGP Videopass from Dorna. Currently asking £135 for the 2022 season. Watch on your mobile device or cast to your big TV. Catch up of all races and sessions is much more extensive (and timely) than that on BT Sport.

I have strongly considered going that route from next year but the Premiership Rugby and Champions League coverage is what is keeping me going through the winter. For the infrequent time my footy team is on the TV I can get better value for money by watching down the pub with free beer thrown in. 🙂

On the MotoGP site the ‘Black Friday’ price for the 2022 season is £160

I get the £135 offer through the app on my phone.

BT have just put mine up to £29.99 a month , I only watch moto GP which is not on all year, it is very disappointing as Iam a keen fan but unfortunately will now have to cancel it as it’s to high . If a lot of people are doing this people will also stop going to see it at circuits due to not being able to keep up with the sport it’s a shame for moto GP

BT are going to kill it with there high prices

The BT Sport app is £25 per month , it’s a one month commitment, so when it’s not on, you can cancel those months and only subscribe the months Moto GP is on, or if you have BT mobile paying £20 or more , or BT Mobile and BT Broadband paying more than £15 for the mobile plan ( the £5 off if the broadband discount) you can get BT Sport ‘free’ , albeit you have to watch on the mobile ( so small screen )

As already said , you can subscribe directly with MotoGP

Where I live I cannot get BT broadband

with the BT app I would have to buy a new tv that supports the app or settle on watching it on my laptop which is rubbish

Strangely 29.99 is the standard none discounted price for it on Sky without BT bb so sounds like it's went up because your contract has ended.

Your other option is to subscribe to the Dorna MotoGP app instead.

BT Broadband is pretty much available everywhere, so unless you are ( for example ) in a small number of new builds that only have access to the one provider the builder has provided for you , then BT will be available and it’s a choice to use someone else , there is nothing wrong with that , but its a choice.

Offering something cheaper if you sign up for something else is a legitimate marketing strategy , same as Sky use EPL to get customers onto other Sky products, so if getting Moto GP ‘cheap’ requires also getting BT Broadband, what’s wrong with that , it’s been the case for decades with other sports and providers.

Its long been the case , way before BT became a sports broadcaster , that services were cheaper bundled together, and buying individual ‘sports’ was not available ,for example to get F1 on Sky you can’t just ‘buy’ F1 but you have to take other Sky products you may not want.

Dont want to pay for BT Sport , pay Dorna directly, the current half season ‘ ticket ’ is 100 euro ( don’t know why it didn’t show it in £’s ) so it’s not like you don’t have a choice.

We cannot get BT broadband where we live so no you cannot have BT broadband anywhere we had it through sky

with getting it through Dorna I think it’s only on your computer isn’t it? Which may be better that nothing but it’s not the same as watching it on your tv

You can always connect your laptop to the TV or buy any number of cheap devices to run the app on.

We have only had internet for the past two years and only have the one provider

we have sky and that was the only way of getting BT moto gp through our sky box
