Subscribed channel not accessible on streaming apps

DTV satellite customer. Both Roku and iOS mobile apps are suddenly showing the following when I try to watch movies on the TCM app: “Sorry, your cable subscription does not include this content.” No issues accessing TCM live or on demand from home. Have tried logging out and back in several times on each device-doesn’t help. Thanks in advance.

After checking for current system software on both devices, rebooting, restarting, deleting/reinstalling apps, logging out and back in, TCM now works fine from my iOS device. But still getting same message on Roku.

We appreciate the update about your TCM app, @Tubman


Please try to reset your DIRECTV password in order to refresh your TCM subscription for all your devices. After this, please try to:


1. Restart your device
2. Delete and reinstall the app
3. Check for software updates


Finally, we also recommend you to confirm whether your Roku is still a compatible device of this app.

@Tubman there is no DirecTV satellite app for a Roku, there's a DirecTV stream app for Roku which is a completely different service
