We report the discovery of the transiting exoplanets WASP-69b, WASP-70Ab andWASP-84b, each of which orbits a bright star ($V\sim10)$. WASP-69b is a bloatedSaturn-mass planet (0.26 $M_{\rm Jup}$, 1.06 $R_{\rm Jup}$) in a 3.868-d periodaround an active, $\sim$1-Gyr, mid-K dwarf. ROSAT detected X-rays $60 \pm 27"$from WASP-69. If the star is the source then the planet could be undergoingmass-loss at a rate of $\sim$10$^{12}$ g s$^{-1}$. This is 1 to 2 orders ofmagnitude higher than the evaporation rate estimated for HD 209458b and HD189733b, both of which have exhibited anomalously-large Lyman-$\alpha$absorption during transit. WASP-70Ab is a sub-Jupiter-mass planet (0.59 $M_{\rmJup}$, 1.16 $R_{\rm Jup}$) in a 3.713-d orbit around the primary of aspatially-resolved, 9-to-10-Gyr, G4+K3 binary, with a separation of 3.3$'$($\geq$800 AU). WASP-84b is a sub-Jupiter-mass planet (0.69 $M_{\rm Jup}$, 0.94$R_{\rm Jup)}$ in an 8.523-d orbit around an active, $\sim$1-Gyr, early-Kdwarf. Of the transiting planets discovered from the ground to date, WASP-84bhas the third-longest period. For the active stars WASP-69 and WASP-84, wepre-whitened the radial velocities using a low-order harmonic series. We foundthis reduced the residual scatter more than did the oft-used method ofpre-whitening with a fit between residual radial velocity and bisector span.The system parameters were essentially unaffected by pre-whitening.

Three sub-Jupiter-mass planets: WASP-69b & WASP-84b transit active K dwarfs and WASP-70Ab transits the evolved primary of a G4+K3 binary
