How to Activate Disney+ on Verizon

Eligibility for Free Disney+ Subscription

Verizon offers a free Disney+ subscription for 12 months, but it is primarily available to new FiOS customers and those with unlimited data plans [1:1][1:4]. If you are on an unlimited plan, you can initiate the activation through Verizon's website under the add-on and apps option in your plan settings [1:9].

Activation Process

To activate Disney+ through Verizon, you need to follow the link provided by Verizon after activating the offer [2:1]. This process may involve signing up for Disney+ via Verizon's platform rather than directly through Disney+. For detailed steps, Verizon's support page provides a guide on how to activate the bundle [2:2].

Common Issues and Solutions

Some users have experienced issues when trying to activate additional services like Hulu and ESPN+ as part of the Disney+ bundle. A workaround involves using a web browser to sign into Disney+ and activating Hulu and ESPN+ from there [3:1]. If you previously had Hulu with the same email used for Disney+, you might need to log into that account and link it [3:2].

Service Requirements

You do not necessarily need Verizon's phone service to watch Disney+ on your TV. The Disney Bundle can be accessed with any internet connection, regardless of your ISP or phone provider [5:1][5:3]. If you pay for Disney+ independently, there are no restrictions based on your service provider [5:4].

Additional Tips

If you encounter errors during activation, ensure that ad blockers are disabled and try clearing cookies and cache [4:4][4:6]. Using an incognito window may also help bypass any lingering issues related to cookies or pop-ups [4:4].

Added Disney+, can't activate Hulu

Posted by [deleted] · in r/verizon · 3 years ago

As the title says, I added the Disney+ bundle from the My Verizon app. No issues. Go into Disney+ and try to activate Hulu? Page not found. No matter which way I try to do it, page not found. Can't activate from My Verizon directly or Hulu.

Use your web browser and sign into Disney+, there should be an “activate Hulu and espn+” in there under account i believe. Only way i found it was when i did it on the actual web browser and not the Disney+ app

Issues with Disney+ Activation

Posted by annalis · in r/Spectrum · 6 months ago

For the past week, I've tried to unsuccessfully activate Disney+ via Spectrum. Whenever I click the activation link, I get an error page stating "Service Unavailable. We're sorry, something didn't work quite right. Please sign back in to try again."

This happens repeatedly, regardless of device, browser, app, and logging in and out does nothing.

FWIW I've been using the following steps within my account: Manage Internet/​WiFi > TV/Streaming > Disney+ Basic > Error

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a known outage? Any workarounds?

OP should make sure ad blockers are off too. 

I signed up fine last month with no issues, FWIW. I signed up for ESPN+ two days ago with no issues as well. Maybe OP should try an incognito window in case there's a stray cookie he didn't get when clearing.

You mentioned pop-ups. OP should also check in the web address field to be sure it isn't trying to open one.

I should also note that I'm being ping ponged between the two companies. Spectrum states that the issue originates from Disney, and vice versa.

FiberOpticDelusions · 6 months ago

Had the same issue months ago when I tried to activate mine, and I'm an employee. I finally did a conference call with both companies. Low and behold, the issue was on our end. But it was the Disney rep that was able to get it to work finally. The biggest kick in the nuts was that I'm not able to upgrade beyond the basic Disney+ with commercials...

I've now done two conference calls with both companies, without any resolution. Any idea what finally worked?

I believe you need something with Verizon (not exactly sure what since I don’t use Verizon) to get The Disney Bundle for a year for free. But if you pay for it yourself, there’s no rule about what your ISP or phone provider is in order to watch; you can watch it with any.

FIOS and Disney+ - How do I add ESPN+

Posted by Accomplished-Bike714 · in r/verizon · 2 years ago

I don't see to get a clear answer from Verizon not Disney. I am extremely confused at this point.

I have the free Disney+ promo from FIOS. I want to add ESPN+ bundle to the plan but when I talk to FIOS they said I need to talk to Disney+. When I talk to Disney+ they say my plan is managed by Verizon and need to talk to them. One of the Verizon people wanted me to sign up for a new FIOS plan to add TV services, this is how lost I am at this point.

Anyone have any advice or tips for getting this completed properly?

I’m on the wireless side, but when I run into this issue I usually call Disney with customer and they’re good about making sure everything looks right on their end. Just yesterday the Disney rep had a customer unenroll and enroll again and got it working. I’d asking the fios rep to call with you on the line and cut out you having to call back and forth.

Disney+ Activation on Total 5G+ Unlimited

Posted by EEKid004 · in r/TotalWirelessOfficial · 7 months ago

About a day ago, I activated a line on the Total 5G+ Unlimited plan.

I got a text to activate Disney+; however, the link leads to a subscription status page that states "We haven't found any subscriptions associated with your account. If you purchased any value-added products, please check back later by logging into your account and going to the My Extras page from the Dashboard. If the problem persists, please call us at 1-866-663-3633."

Under the "Manage my extras" tab, it states "There are no VAS subscriptions under your account."

How should I go about activating the free Disney+ subscription?

How to redeem Disney+ with Verizon

Posted by Tenshinoshi · in r/DisneyPlus · 5 years ago

All you have to do is log in to your Verizon Wireless account (either through the My Verizon app or VZW.com), click on your account information, and go to the add-ons section (where you can add additional services like Apple Music, ring-back tones, etc). The offer is in that section.

Verizon Disney+ Promotion Setup

Posted by Gergnant · in r/DisneyPlus · 5 years ago

Just wanted to put this out there, as I just spent 20 minutes sorting this out. If you, like me, made a Disney+ account before Verizon sent you the free year details, not to worry. Following Verizon's links will eventually automatically redeem a code on your account if you're logged into the app at the time.

It also takes about 15 minutes for the change to appear in billing. It may look like you follow a bunch of links that led nowhere, but I assure you, everything's fine.

How does it link/connect the accounts? I have 3 year deal but my father in law is the head of the account for Verizon. Can you give me insight on how to add the Verizon deal to my account?

1 upvotes on reddit
Gergnant · OP · 5 years ago

So when you follow the Verizon links it gives you a redemption code. If you're already logged in when the code generates, it's immediately redeemed to the account.

1 upvotes on reddit
[deleted] · 5 years ago

Ok thanks. Had my father in law just sign into my account and follow what you said.

Another question. My understanding is when the year is up it will continue with my 3 yr deal. Then I will be paying through Disney again. This does not ever bill Verizon account, correct? Am I understanding this correctly?

PaintedMindst8 · 5 years ago

Yup, not worrying. I set one up a little after midnight and chose Verizon as my payment option. I figured it would sort itself out, which it did. Thank you.
