Terrible. I signed up in December and never received an email despite being charged. I wrote support and they were confused…then just stopped writing me. But, they never stopped charging me. I logged... See more

Content dissapointing
I'm dissapointed about the content on History Hit, IMO much better content available on Youtube premium with hundreds of Time Team episodes and other stuff.
Also the cancellation process on History could be easier.

Cannot get subscriptions back despite trial period.
I subscribed to History Hits and I could not easily access the channel so I cancelled my 14 day trial the next day.
I tried again using a different email address but still had a problems. I once again cancelled the subscription by contacting the support line the next day.
History Hits have taken two subscriptions from me, despite numerous emails.
They did say in one of their replies that they would cancel one of the subscriptions, I said thanks but I also want the second one done.
Today no money has been returned.
I am a pensioner and I can ill afford to have £120 taken out of my bank in this way. They have failed to honour their 14 day trial offer and I feel that I have been scammed.

Great for history lovers
I love history, so this has been a great find. Although I've only had time to watch a couple of shows so far, I'm looking forward to exploring it further soon. Good, simple platform and great content. It's very UK/Europe-focused though, so I hope to see more international content added too.
