Discovery + Reactivate Subscription message

Been watching Discovery+ all week. This morning the app asked my login. So I logged in successfully, but I can't watch any programmes as I receive "Reactivate Subscription" message.

when I try via the web page  to set it up it says I already have a active account!

discovery have said I don't have an account so how do I reset it up!

Is this what you did, especially the bit about generating a code:

 

Follow the instructions you see onscreen when launching the Discovery+ app on your Sky Q box
Select log in
You'll be taken to the screen with the activation code and a new URL link for Discovery which is discoveryplus.com/link
Log on to your Discovery+ account
Enter the activation code - this will activate your Sky Q box/Sky Glass

I have exactly the same issue and it will not let me Refresh on the SKY Q box. The only thing I can do is "Sign out" 

 

Nothing but issues from day one with this app.

Re: Discovery + Reactivate Subscription message

One can only get a discovery account if you register and pay with discovery, yet as a sky Q member you get discovery plus through your sky account. So the steps are confusing

Re: Discovery + Reactivate Subscription message

@ Thankyou for your reply. @Laing1   I tried it 'AGAIN' says on my device & sky q 'your all set' but takes me rite back to REACTIVATE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION ON "DISCOVERYPLUS.COM/SUBSCRIBE"  then that just takes me back to my D+ home page ?. I'm so tired of this especially when sky are telling me I'm active & have the 12month  subscription free. I refuse to pay for it again. I  don't think sky q are very helpful  in my opinion, as they've just put me round I circles the MUST manage to resubscribe us?  It's a mystery.

 I've done everything asked tried every link reset my software on sky Q box etc I'm exhausted.   So now I can get into D+ but when go to resume playing my series it showing is the REACTIVATE link to REFRESH on my t.v.... No violins but I'm a single mum with disabilities & not the greatest with technology as is, I'd manage this,  not when I'm sent chasing my tail  if anybody could Please please help. I did notice somebody got help via somebody work with sky 🙏  help I'm so drained. Many thanks in advance ☺
