The Athletic Reviews

Good journalism, bad app

Rklaroya on

United Kingdom

Im able to read articles reliably but thats about it. Commenting on the articles barely seems to work for me and the option to view the non-default fanbase’ discussion rarely if ever works. Please don’t make me have to go back to discussing football on Reddit

Do not use this company

Lets go! on

United Kingdom

Absolutely awful customer service. They took £59 from my account with no warning or prior notice and refuse to refund me! It’s ruined my Christmas and I couldn’t be more upset. Want to leave 0 stars.

Issues

Skimbon on

United Kingdom

Often issues with the podcasts e.g. They won't play. Atm I can't write any comments I just get an error message. The comment section and formatting and writing texts is pretty rubbish

The best football journal by far

in Nuno we trust on

United Kingdom

I love everything about the Athletic, the Totally Football podcast is my favourite podcast and is a complete bonus on top of all the written content.

Difficulty logging in

Stex07 on

United Kingdom

I have many apps but none come near the Athletic for difficulty in logging in and maintaining easy access.

Mshepherd5 on

United Kingdom

Even though I select ‘international’ rather than ‘north America’ for the regional choice, I still can’t screen out all the coverage of American sport. That is quite irritating when I subscribe to get football coverage and have zero interest in American football and basketball. Otherwise, football coverage is in depth and decent enough.

Good news, terrible for podcasts

Hawros on

United Kingdom

The news UI is great. Well done. The experience regularly playing podcasts is awful. Too many issues to list here, but… Auto downloads (and deletes), and remembering my listening position shouldn’t be too hard to implement.

Rip off

Leeleelee10 on

United Kingdom

Signed up for free 7 day trial, get charged the full year straight away with no refund. Articles are not great, basically 10 minute read with graphs and stats…stay away

It’s got ads in it.

I pay and still get ads.

Scammed

YouSuckM8 on

United Kingdom

Been charged £60 for something I don’t want
