This network is not included in your current television subscription.

I have used the CNN go app and ESPN app for years by logging into my xfinity account and streaming the apps to my smart tv, phone, and lap top. I am not getting the error message "This network is not included in your current tv package" even though CNN and ESPN (regular not plus) are channels we pay for. I called xfinity twice and both people told me to call CNN to fix this... like the actual new station and said its not an xfinity issue. I read on a few other posts on ther that the streaming providsions need to be reset on the xfinity side to allow me to use the apps but neither xfinity person would push me up to talk to anyone else.

I called xfinity three additional times today to fix this issue. Was being connected to tech support and it got cut off. i called them again and they had me on hold for over anc hour and said they will "give me a call back" once tech support answers them... nothing. Anyone know what I should say to them when I call again later?

Hi @nymetsfan11. Sorry for the experience you've had while trying to stream CNN and ESPN from your smart TV and other devices. I wanted to check in with you to see if this has been fixed? 

 

If not, have you tried to Fix Your TV Service Using the Xfinity My Account App? If you have, and that didn't work, my team can do some additional troubleshooting on the backend of your account that will get this fixed. Let us know.

Been having this same issue since late Jan, oddly on the CNN apps for both my Samsung and Roku. The app says I have to have Xfinity WiFi to access it, but I only have the cable package subscription which has worked fine this way for years. No changes were made to the subscription package.

Iam now experiencing the same issue. I was watching something using the ESPN app, and when the program finished I got the door message and now I cannot start any other ESPN programs (ESPN+ works fine). I also checked the TNT app and received the same error; I'm assuming it will be the same with any network app. What gives?

Exact same problem here as of two days ago. I've tried with NBC and CNN apps on my Roku TV, as well as NBC from my phone. Identical symptoms as those reported above, and no changes to my cable package... help, please!

I’m having the same issue.  I’m not paying $300 for this inferior experience any longer unless they resolve this issue.
