My PAID Apple TV subscription showed me an Ad

Why does my paid Apple TV subscription have ads? I figured I’d just use the Apple TV app to watch formula one, and just reduce the number of apps on my iPad, when I’m hit with an AMEX ad in the middle of the session?? I instantly turned it off and switched to the F1TV app, and that advertisement was not there. Genuinely appalled that this happened.


Also to note: this was on a live broadcast. There was no way to skip it, and yes, it didn’t happen when something was actually happening, but Apple decided to jack up the price of the subscription then has the absolute gall to give me advertisements in the middle of my broadcast??

AppleTV+ content does not have ads embedded, pre-roll trailers, yes.

Live sports content may include ads
