EADT subscription £6 for 6 months on 11:20 - Aug 2 with 3912 views | DublinBlue84 | They encouraged everyone to sign up with £3 for 3 months during the pre-season period and I'm fairly sure said there would be offers going on after this period ends. They're now offering £6 for 6 months during the season but only for people who didn't sign up for the initial £3 for 3 months price. I'm sorry but now asking me to cough up £50 now for what other people are getting for £6 is simply not on. I get they want to give new customers a better offer, but they've got this completely wrong.

Yes, they even said there would be renewal offers on one of their pods when they first launched it. Like you i'd take the 6 for 6 offer but that's me done with them as well. | | | |

EADT subscription £6 for 6 months on 11:34 - Aug 2 with 3784 views | greyhound | Cheers sitters. Not having local news has really irked me. Something about not being able to understand what's going on locally with regards to crime, sport and events doesn't sit well and shouldn't be pay walled. I'll accept a quid a month for 6 months and will just keep changing details and fishing for offers after that. | | | |

You can't, doesn't let you and the page says very clearly. "This deal is only for new subscribers, but if you're already a subscriber, there are other ways to enjoy money-saving benefits. " | |

You won't find much in the way of local news on the EADT. Most of it is 'live reporters' scouring social media to write short stories on what they read and getting photos from Google maps rather than doing any actual journalism. | |

Ah, I turned off auto-renew on mine so guess I wasn't subscribed when I clicked on the link. | |

Problem they have is that most people have signed up with the Star/EADT for ITFC content, and now with Town TV (despite teething problems) will get their fix from that. The journalism from the Star is diabolical, they seem to just want to gaslight Facebook and peel stories from Social Media. Surprised Stuart is still around, he seems far too polished for that rag. | |

That's the point, I've subscribed to TownTV as well as for 5.99 it gives me what I want and none of the crap that I don't want I could stomach paying a little more than new subscribers on the basis I've had an offer already, but the idea they're going to give in season content for £1 a month to new people and then charge 8x as much for people who signed up on day one is a serious issue for me. Also the other serious issue is the way that the KOA crew presented that there would be other offers down the line and implied that would be for those who had subscribed and now it is for new subscriptions only which is not good at all. A lot of the stories they even peel from social media are incorrect, because the people involved don't have the most basic research skills or knowledge of the things they are peeling. | |

But in the 'olden days' did you not have to pay for a newspaper to get this news? Seems a bit unfair that you think news should be provided free. | | | |

In the 'olden days' the quality of the 'news' and the 'journalists' employed was far better. Right now the EADT news content has little to no value to me. | |

I'm 36, news has forever been online for me really. Might of read my dad's evening star when I was younger, or paid 20p for 1 page of the sun from time to time in my youth. The Internet is becoming an enormous base for subscriptions and it's becoming problematic as so much is pay walled. | | | |

Which may be because they cant afford proper journos because no-one (me included) wants to pay for content any more. | |

Waste of money rubbish paper | | | |
EADT subscription £6 for 6 months on 18:42 - Aug 2 with 2629 views | JackNorthStand | Thanks for posting. Personally I am still not interested - which is a shame as Stuart Watson ( Like Andy Warren ) is excellent. I think the club missed a trick by not getting both of them involved with town tv. I’m glad Andy Warren made the switch though | | | |

Setting up a new account/email address would waste far less of your time than you've spent upset about others getting a better sign up offer than you did. | |
