Verified Reviewer |Cancel a subscription only to find out...
- - Charged $129.99 for a year in March after canceling.
- - Refund requested; no cancellation email; ESPN+ used for UFC; Disney canceled.
Cancel a subscription only to find out in March they charged me for a whole year. I had never paid for a year at a time, but sure, go right ahead and charge me for something I have had zero use for this year.
ESPN+ was for watching the UFC fights; Paramount takes care of that. Funny how my Disney subscription got canceled and stayed canceled. And why in March? $129.99 for a year's worth of nothing.
There was no charge for January or February, then $129.99 on March 4th.
I've been trying to get refunded ever since. I still see no cancellation e-mail from ESPN+, sooooo...?
User's recommendation: Do not take your eyes off your bank statements. Fraud is what it is.

Reoccurring charges after cancellation
Dear ESPN Support Team,
I am writing to request the immediate cancellation of my subscription and a stop to all associated charges.
Despite previously cancelling my membership, I continue to be billed monthly. I had duplicate transactions and ongoing issues following Disney's acquisition of ESPN.
Although I cancelled my Disney subscription, I was unaware this would affect my ESPN account, and the charges have persisted.
Please investigate these errors and ensure no further payments are processed. You can locate my account information using the following email addresses:
86express01@***.com
miles.hutton08@***.com
I look forward to receiving confirmation that these recurring payments have been stopped.
Regards,
Miles Hutton

I cancelled my ESPN+ subscription it is paid to September 26 2026. When I tried to log in, ESPN+ Said my subscription was deactivated.
I still have close to 5 1/2 months left on my subscription. I would like a refund for the service I paid for but will not receive.
- App car rap
- Deactivated my account for no reason
Preferred solution: Full refund

Verified Reviewer |Disappoint in your customer service
- - Dissatisfied with ESPN Plus streaming and support.
- - Audio and video issues occur on most games.
- - April Z claimed no issues and did not follow up.
Don’t purchase earn unlimited or any of their streaming services. It’s poor quality and horrible customer service. Worst I’ve ever dealt with.
Louis University baseball games, and the productions have been horrible and very unprofessional. My high school students put on a better production than your so-called professional service. Almost every game has had issues with the audio and/or video. Last Friday, there were many issues throughout the game.
I called customer service, and the supervisor, April Z., said tech support said there were no issues. I sent her video of the issues happening at the same time over and over, showing that it wasn't my connection or app, and gave her many times when more things happened. She said she would call me back after looking into it the next day, and 8 days later, still no call. That's your customer service agent, April Z., and she's a supervisor, which is a joke.
If that's how your supervisors respond, maybe new training needs to be done. I'm considering contacting the BBB and lodging a complaint.
- When it works its good
- Production is not very professional
- Switching is poor
- Camera work is poor
Preferred solution: Price reduction
User's recommendation: Stay away from paying for ESPN plus.

Your NBA camera angles and production are making me physically nauseous. Please stop trying to be funky and just let us watch the game. It's awful!
User's recommendation: If you want eapn for nba games - don’t, just don’t! Just listen online, because you won’t be able to watch without getting sick anyway - the worst camera production I’ve ever seen!

Your ESPN sound engineer for NHL uses a gate and/or compression on the TV broadcast. This causes surges in volume.
It's really bad.
This occurs on all the games and has been consistent for several years now. It really needs to be addressed and fixed.

- - Removing Stephen A. Smith could double the audience, the reviewer says.
- - They feel the network isn't considered for sports info and go elsewhere.
Your audience would immediately double if you got rid of Stephen A. Smith.
He's destroying your network.
I watch sports 24/7, and your network is never considered for me or anyone I know for sports information. Since you obviously don't care about who you hire and try to force on us, we get our sports and information elsewhere.
Preferred solution: real sports reporters, if i was in charge of hiring your sports commentators your share holders would be very happy!! you are driving my beloved espn straight into the ground.

Verified Reviewer |Completely
Please be aware of the deal it’s not worth a espn plus extra subscription included because it doesn’t give you access to espn there’s a lot of fine print and red tape you don’t have access to ESPN even if you have ESPN +
They hung up after two rings. They do not honor the paid service included with the Disney subscription. They cannot be reached.
- Non
- Do not honor the subscription
Preferred solution: Service to work without paying twice
Extremely difficult to navigate their website for a Canadian Snowbird once they are back in Canada. Seems it doesn't like Canadian IP addresses.
Easier navigation on website and answer the phone. Seems like you are a 3rd party and you got back in touch.

Verified Reviewer |Complaint about Pat McAfee
On his March 11th show, Pat McAfee referred to the Italian baseball team as those 'stupid Italians.' Mr. McAfee should be required to apologize on the air. I have been a long-time viewer of ESPN and am thoroughly disappointed to hear such disrespect.

I no longer need to have any access to ESPN or ESPN+ or any thing else. I can't seem to get signed on any more no matter how many times I rebuild my account and no one will answer any phone calls no matter what phone # I call.
I do not care to do business with your company in the future. Please cancel my account as of the end of this month. Thank you.
