Bundle Activation Isn’t working for Disney plus and Hulu

I can’t seem to activate account for Disney and Hulu without having to pay even though it says included as a bundle. I already activated peacock which was simple, wish I could say the same for the Disney and Hulu. I have already tried every step xfinity offered and still nothing .

Still same issue today and appears this has been going on since mid-March according to the tech support agent. I told the agent Please no more hoops (think I have surpassed Stephen Curry on hoops) just please give me an eta. I was told they are working on it.  Reminds me of a saying in New Orleans It's fixed when it's done and it's done when it's fixed!   One would think that Xfinity would have corrected this by now.:(

So frustrating after spending two hours with tech support yesterday trying to activate my Disney plus Hulu subscription. Jumped through all there hoops only to be told it’s a known issue and should be fixed within a few hours. Needless to say same issue click the link for Disney wants me to sign up for a paid subscription. Same issue using the Disney app on Xfinity. On the Xfinity site it shows active.

Another waisted hour with support again last night and no solution for the issue. I asked to resend the link or email to active my Disney Plus Hulu subscription and was told they can't. Called Disney tech support and they told me it shows pending and also suggested that Xfinity just resend the link or email to activate the subscription:(

zfastss Have you tried the following steps? 

 

To activate your Disney+, Hulu Bundle, follow these steps:

*Clear your cache, and cookies or use a private or incognito browsing window. 
*Visit xfinity.com/yoursubscriptions.
*Enter your Primary Xfinity ID and password, then click **Let’s go** to sign in.
*Click **Activate** next to the subscription. If no option appears, your service may already be activated.
*If you're new, enter your desired email for your Disney+ account; if you already have an account, enter your existing MyDisney email.

*You will receive a confirmation message to complete the activation process.

This is what it shows on my Xfinity streaming subscriptions page for Disney Plus Hulu.

The Disney tech support agent told me it shows pending and that is why when I sing into the Disney account it only shows me an option to purchase a subscription. 

This should have been a simple process not taken three days and countless hours with tech support.

What is the solution to correct this problem.

I'm having the same exact issue. Except for me it shows HBO Max is are already active, but Hulu/Disney+ have the same "Activate" problem you are having. Pretty sure the bundle is for all three, so I don't know why the HBO Max shows active.. When I login into HBO Max with the same Xfinity email address it shows me that I do not have an active subscription. Xfinity seems to offer a pretty useless bundle and I'm about to cancel it. Makes more sense to pay the $32 directly to HBO Max for the bundle if that is the only way to get all three to properly work.

I am having the same issue. I have been trying to activate for two weeks now, been back and forth between Xfinity and Disney chats. No help from either side. I’ve tried everything. Clearing cache, etc. I’ve done it over 100 times. Nothing works. Can’t believe I’m paying for this. Every time I try it loads in Disney plus from the Xfinity activation and says “Manage your subscription to complete account setup.”

disney tells me that Xfinity has not cleared my account through their system.

I hope this information will help others out there with the same Disney Plus Hulu issues.

Disney Plus Hulu appears to be working thanks to a three-way call yesterday between a Disney technician and Ray from Xfinity. Appears that you have to sign up for the $12.99 plan from Disney and it's covered by Xfinity. I hope Ray was correct and I do not see an additional charge on my account for Disney Plus Hulu.

As of this morning Disney Plus Hulu is working and no additional charges for the service has shown up on my account so far.

Thanks so much for this info since I have exactly the same problem with activation of Disney+/Hulu. I spend hours on the phone with both Disney and Xfinity a couple of weeks ago. Finally spoke with someone in Xfinity's tech dept who advised they just found out there was a system problem and that they were diligently working on fixing it - ETA was anywhere from a week to a month. She assured me they would make it up to the customers who were affected but nothing specific. No further info received from Xfinity and I plan to contact customer service shortly.
