DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

[dare2be]

Yep, I'm finally back in HBO. Don't have to use friend's login anymore. BTW I do not in any way consider this "stealing" as I was still paying for HBO I just couldn't access it, but I wasn't going to miss the last few episodes of The Last of Us!!!

Stupid question, but how would you miss them? Couldn't you just catch up on them once you had access again? Isn't that the point of streaming?

They used to hand out free movie certificates that were only good for SD movies.If you wanted to watch the HD version it was a buck more.Now that was cheap.

Prior to this hack I was signed up for their military appreciation program it gave a small discount on service and a free movie each month. The movies became very restricted and limited in choices

I often do this when a service has little else to offer is to simply turn it on then binge watch that month then shut it off again

For a popular show like this, it can be hard to avoid spoilers. But, if you played the video game you pretty much knew what was going to happen.

Halo was like that you already knew the players general idea what would happen.

Dish anywhere just updated on my iphone. In order to sign in I now needed to put in my email address and click to have a 6 digit code sent to my email. I put the code in and hit enter. Dish anywhere has now been on a screen “starting” with a gear spinning for 5 minutes now. No idea why they would do this if the system won’t sign me on. Sigh..

I just tried Dish Anywhere (android) and it worked fine, I exited and let it update and restarted the app and it also worked just fine.

I wouldn't have missed them forever, but I wanted to see them as they were released! Fantastic show.

Yay!!!!!!! Interestingly Scott. After reading this post I tried to get into mydish.com only to receive the same old system down message. Then I went to the HBO MAX app and it worked. If the apps still can't get into mydish.com to validate a subscription, did Dish make some deal with HBO to automatically allow access for Dish subscribers?

The place apps for external services (like HBO Max) connect to in order to validate was and always has been idenity1.dishnetwork.com

This just came back online.

My mistake.

Well this just escalated quickly. Why on earth would they turn off accounts for nonpayment during this debacle?

I suspect it's because as the computer systems are being brought back on line automated services are kicking in. The computer sees no payment and automatically orders a disconnect. I hope people don't think payment checking is being done individually by human beings. Once the systems are fully functional they should be able to override it but certainly not initially.

I have been told this is what happened. The programs were doing as they were supposed to, they were not programmed for something like this.

It's working for MOST of my channels (HBO, Showtime), but STARZ is stating that I'm not subscribed. Yet I am.

 

[Partysox]

I just uninstalled HBOMAX from my H+ and reinstalled it and reactivated it through provider [Dish credentals] just to see. I would think MyDish will be back shortly. Fingers crossed

 

[Albiondon]

Still cant access the History Channel
A network error occured when communicating with the provider's authorization service

Starz will not authenticate for me either. I too am subscribed.

HBOMax is working now. Didn’t have todo anything on the firestick. Just left it signed in. For the last few weeks it has shown the sun has expired through Dish. Shows I have No Ad plan now. Showtime Anytime worked as well but Starz did not. I have the Dish movie pack

Thanks , I checked and now have HBOMAX back on my 4 Rokus. I still cannot get Alexa Amazon back to control my 2 H3s

I wonder how long it will be before lesser functions like the ability of Outdoor accounts to change locals with the phone app come back online.
