Showtime and Paramount+ Problem

I pay for Showtime and Paramount+ and I do get showtime. But, when I bring up Paramount+, it asks for a login. It appears that to create a login requires setting up a paid for account. Why doesn’t my Comcast account authorize this automatically?

Hello, @user_2rqajx. I hope you're having a great Tuesday, so far. I appreciate you making us aware that you're having to sign up for the Paramount + subscription when you're already paying for Showtime and Paramount +. Have you by any chance checked the status of your subscription on your X1 cable box? If not, please visit this link to learn how https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/manage-paramount-plus-subscription.

I just checked that link and Paramount+ is not listed. If I check my billing, it shows Showtime and Paramount+ is being billed. And, I do get Showtime.

Paramount + with Showtime (the cable channel formerly known as Showtime) on Xfinity Cable does not grant you access to the Paramount + Streaming Service App. 

Xfinity is not yet a partner with Paramount+. Why I do not know as other cable providers, such as Spectrum, do offer this partnership.

Truly bizarre -- so when we are signed up for Paramount/Showtime we don't have access to the Paramount+ app..?
