Login to Directv Stream App on Apple TV - Code: 0018
I having issues logging into my Directv Streaming App on my Apple TV. It asked me to login to my IOS device and on the web. I did both and I keep getting an error message saying "These credentials are valid for the Directv experience. Please login to the DIRECTV app on your web, Android or IOS device. {Code:0018} Can someone help with this issue? It works fine on my iPhone and on the web...so I don't know what the problem is on my apple tv device.
Thanks
Eric

Are you using Apple's Single Sign-On Option? Try deleting the provider, reboot the device and try logging back on again. This has been an issue in the past with Apple devices.

Thanks for your help, bcbsncjlj. I followed these instructions below and I keep getting this error message that states "That user ID doesn't seem to work here. Please sign in with a different ID. Care Code: 205.4." I have two user IDs and I used both of them and neither one worked.
Apple TV setup
Sign in to the DIRECTV STREAM app on your Apple TV:

@RonW1 Have you ever had an DirecTV subscription? There has been some issues with subscribers who had previous accounts with DirecTV and have now gone with DirecTV Stream. Have not seen a solution outside of using another email account.
Also, you are a DirecTV Stream subscriber, right? You did download the correct app, right (DirecTV Stream not DirecTV)?

I will ask this then. Are you using Apple's Single Sign-On Option? Try deleting the provider, reboot the device and try logging back on again. This has been an issue in the past with Apple devices.

Yea, you should fix this Direct TV. This is a horrible customer experience. It’s weird you ask your customers to test your RnD… get an Apple TV to your engineers so they can provide a fix to your paying customers!
