ATT U-verse but cannot watch episodes on HGTV app

When I activate the HGTV app on my smart TV, I'm still not able to see the episodes.  I keep getting the message, "Not Available. This content is available to viewers who receive HGTV as a part of their pay TV subscription."  But I DO have HGTV as a part of my ATT U-verse subscription.  And I am activating the HGTV app (signing in, typing in the activation code) on my laptop that is connected to my ATT wifi network.

What is going on and how do I fix this?

I just logged in on my Roku.  Try deleting the app and re-installing it.

I tried deleting and re-installing the app.  But it still doesn't work.  Dang it.

Somewhere in the process, it should be prompting you for your TV provider.  Are you selecting AT&T U-verse?  (AT&T TV tends to be show up before AT&T U-verse and can be easy to select instead... but will not work.)

Yes.  I've been consistently choosing ATT U-verse--not ATT TV). Thanks for the suggestion.  I guess I'm going to have to call Customer Service again.

Sure, call it in, but be grounded and expect to waste a lot of time for nought. As customers, we have no formal way to report issues of this type and get them worked.  

Was there a success message posted once the login completed?  Most of these apps will show the Uverse logo indicating a successful bind.  If not, I’ve found it necessary to repeat the process several times.
