NBC Sports App and Website Won't Recognize Cox Subscription

Can't get NBC Sports to work on Windows 10 PC, Apple TV, iPad, or iPhone. Spent 20+ minutes on the phone with Cox and they verified that NBC Sports is part of my plan.

NBC Sports website says "It looks like your TV subscription does not provide access to this service. Please contact your TV provider for more information."

iOS apps say "Authentication Error: We're sorry, it looks like there was an authentication error."

This problem has been happening for two days now.

I am also getting this error using NBC sports app / My Teams app and unable to view NBC sports Washington, went through about 3 different cox support reps and none of them were able to help or even understand the issue, as if I was speaking a foreign language.  These were the responses I got...

I guess cox doesn't provide that any more.

So if it says that is means it not available.

Okay I'm sorry about that.

I understand this is streaming, but it appears lately Cox is having lots of issues with TV content.

After the authentication error, tap on Cox at the upper-right of the app.  Error:  Not found.  The requested URL /coxlogin/ui/tvonline was not found on the server.

Now, Cox employees, read the above error again.  The url is invalid.  Please figure out where the mistake is and fix it.  Please stop trying to say that it is an individual's account problem because it isn't.  I am currently on the phone with a Cox account representative, who happens to be in Canada.  He is not able to download the app because it is not available to him in Canada, which further makes this a problem.

Hi @Barry E,

I was able to go to this link stream.nbcsports.com/.../ , and then click Cox and sign-in. Can you please try to go to that link and sign in with your Cox primary user ID and password?

Hi @Bettabreaks,

Can you try to login to the app via your phone? Also, please make sure you are using NBC Sports App version 8.1.7. Are you making sure that you are using the primary Cox username to log-in to the App?
