Although I used to enjoy Roadkill when it was on YouTube, when it went behind the paywall I just took the view that it was nature’s way of telling me to cast my net wider and sample more of the free stuff out there. We are spoilt for choice. No need enrich a bunch of greedy “suits”

You're lucky you had it this long tbh. Us in NZ had our subscriptions axed a couple of years ago and were geoblocked. Ever since discovery took over its turned to curse word.
All it does it encourage pirating the material. Not that I would...

I wanted to watch the Olympic coverage available through Discovery+ so looked into it today and there is an offer on currently - £29.99 for one year Entertainment & Sport. A reasonable deal and it includes MotorTrend. Offer ends on Sunday but it includes a 3 day free trial so I guess you could binge and cancel before that expires or just go for the full year and cancel before the renewal. promo.discoveryplus.co.uk/promo/all-sports/discoveryplus-home-of-the-olympics

It’s gone, blocked from the app:( didn’t even finish watching about the hemi gremi! Just log onto the Motortrend website and you can watch it there.The app stopped working a long time ago for me. I got around it by getting a family member in the US to subscribe on my behalf and then just VPN in. Simple. Frieburger even told people to do this on his Instagram. P.

In other news, I had an email from Motortrend on the 17th August saying sorry you've cancelled your subscription, we'll refund your money. But I didn't cancel my subscription, but as I remember they were blocking the rest of the world outside the USA on the 18th August. I've just opened the app on my tablet and it all still seems to be there, and working. Is anyone else still able to watch?

I saw on another forum that one of the chaps had used a vpn and the signed up using PayPal. Seemed to work for him but can’t comment as I am now subbed through the aforementioned American family. It does seem a little poor on Motortrends part. They state that it was due t the overhead of having to support apps in multiple countries. Sounds more like they didn’t want to get caught up,in the European data processing plums. Either way, hope you find a work around. P.

just tried on the laptop and I don't even get to the log in page, auto directs to discovery+ where there's only 8 seasons showing and I'm sure they are mid way through 10

Happily watching it on Prime here too. Missus already had a Prime account and was happy to add it on.... it's about the same as I was paying to MTOD, except I'm not paying any more so I've come out on top!
I don't really do telly other than this and we both watch it so I'd certainly be happy to keep paying the £5- odd a month.
