Account will not log in

Cannot log in on Stream Device, DirecTV App or the website. Says invalid account or password.  Everything is correct as I can log onto the website and look at my account, but I can no longer stream.

You need to either reset your password to regain access or call in for sign-in help. Just so I understand correctly, what error code do you receive when signing in? You stated that you are unable to sign in on ANY devices?

Reseting your password will not work. I am having the same issue and was on with support for over an hour yesterday.  Reset password, cleared web cache,  uninstalled and reinstalled the app, updated Apple TV, restarted Apple TV, unplugged and then restarted Apple TV non of it worked.

Yes, but I am not new to Directv Stream and was using it when it was ATTnow.  In fact it has worked fine for me never had any major issues until yesterday and then it just stopped letting me login.  My guess is someone made a software change/upgrade somewhere in the environment that had undesired consequences. It will not get fixed until they back that change out or figure out how to mediate.

Yep, support had me do that yesterday and it still didn’t work. Not using the same credentials as when I had satellite.

Having similar problem here. Am able to sign in on Osprey boxes on 2 tvs with Directv Stream. Able to login on Ipad and Iphones, now cannot log back into a Fire tv or 2 brand new Samsung tv's. Just shows me error code 201. I've already had a ticket with AT&T put in and no progress. Spent about 3 hours with tech support and even had one guy tell me there is nothing they can do. We have reset user id and password countless times and switched emails. One Fire tv was logged in and worked fine, then when trouble shooting why the Samsung tv's wouldn't login, we logged out of the fire tv and can't log back in. All app have been deleted and reinstalled. Cleared cache and all of that. Have been going through this with multiple brands of tvs and in the end the only thing that works is the 2 Osprey boxes. Any input would be great!

I’m having this same issue, has anyone found a fix for this? I was going to leave Directv for another streaming platform, but I kept the 1 receiver for our main room and was persuaded to go to the DirecTV Stream for our other tvs and iPad, but now it works on 1 tv and not the other nor on my iPad. Very Frustrating!!!
