Paramount Plus Login Help

I’ve subscribed to Paramount+ but cannot login to my account on my TV. I can access the account but I’m asked to “try it free” or sign in. When trying to sign in, I’m offered two options. “On my TV” or “On the Web”. When I try using my TV, and I press Sign In after entering my information, the little wheel spins briefly, stops and nothing happens.

When I try using my iPhone or iPad, I go to the suggested URL (paramountplus.com/xfinity) and am asked for the code on my TV screen. After entering it, my phone displays “You’re all set!” and tells me that my Xfinity device is now linked to my Paramount account and that I can start streaming.

My TV screen, step 3 says that “when complete, this screen will refresh”. Unfortunately, nothing happens!!

I’m quite frustrated. I even upgraded to the plan with no commercials. The only way I can view Paramount+ is by accessing content via my iPhone or iPad and Screen Mirror to my TV.

Help, please!

Greetings, @user_49e88c ! Thanks for reaching out to us on the Forums! I hope you are having an amazing day! I apologize to hear of the issues you are having with trying to get your box to sync up with Paramount+. I know how frustrating it can be to not be able to stream your shows right to the cable box to watch it on the bigger screen. By chance have you tried to refresh the cable box using the MyAccount app or by doing a power cycle on the cable box? (unplug the power for about 15-30 seconds and then plug it back in)

@XfinityMichaelC​ Michael: Power cycled cable box. Reset password. Tried on screen and website linking. Allowed third party cookies. NOTHING! Very frustrated. Paying for P+ but can’t use it. How can we troubleshoot live?

By chance had you the opportunity to reset the X1 box that you're trying to access the Paramount+ application on already? Or perhaps performed a System refresh via our handy Xfinity My Account application?

I’ve had this problem for the last 6 months. There doesn’t seem to be a fix.

It appears that everyone has tried all of the steps listed here and they have not worked including myself. If there is an actual solution to this, please post it here so that everyone can get this to work. Mine stopped working approx 6 months ago, too! I thought if I just waited xfinity would solve this problem. But for the past 6 months, I have paid for a service that I have not received. If it's impossible to receive this service, you should list it as available in the apps. I am ready to contact the FCC about this situation.

Hello @user_6074b2, thank you for reaching out to us on our community forums. Do you have our MyAccount application downloaded? Have you had a chance to try refreshing the cable box using the MyAccount app or by power cycling (unplugging the cable box from power for 15-30 seconds and then pluggin it back in)?
