they don't let you listen anymore on Alexa unless you link alexa to a talksport account, without giving any reason at all as to why they want you to do that, what's the point? don't get it, no other radio station that I know of asks you to do that, lost a listener but they wont care lol.
April 9, 2023 at 2:31 PM Planet Radio now requires an account set up on their own app to access their stations. You can sign up for a free account with ads or a prime account without ads. Obviously they want to have ownership of their listeners for advertising purposes.

So finally @talkSPORT have cut off listeners who listen on #alexa and who refuse to link listening to the app. Wonder what their advertisers make of it ! Was always nice to listen but privacy means a lot.

@talkSPORT Been trying to link to my Alexa since the messages begain, it's never worked so now I can't listen. 5Live for me from now on.
@Stuarthowlett1
@talkSPORT why do I need an account? To listen on Alexa thought it was free ??
@croupier1970 · 8h Well that's me done with @talkSPORT as I'm not sinking you to my Alexa for "FREE". Loved listening but I hate when companies force things upon people.
Was a day one listener but I won't be missed #Talksport
@SnowWolfy7 @talkSPORT not sure why you have been nagging me to link my alexa account just to listen to you. But now I can't listen because my accounts just won't link. No matter what I do.
@Secret5quirrels @talksport can you make it anymore difficult just to listen to your station on my Alexa? Hopeless and no doubt you’ll lose listeners just so you can gather email addresses?! I can now only listen in the car! Switching stations I guess in the daytime

Everyone wants your personal data these days as they believe targeted advertising is a lot more effective,
I'd imagine they are correct in this - though I'm sure like many others, I don't really do ads (mute, or change channel) so some peoples data will be of more use than others.

They ask you for DOB and other details just to listen to minute plus behind live commentary on their useless app. Feck off! What do they take people for?

Turn off Alexa. Say out loud as if you are speaking to someone in your company, "I`m really thinking of booking a Holiday to Greece this year"!
Turn your laptop on next day and I bet adverts for Greek holidays start to pop up randomly within 48 hours, despite having turned Alexa off before you said it out loud.
