"Your Account Is Invalid or Has Expired": What It Means & How to Fix It

This error is more specific than a generic connection failure. It means your credentials were recognized, but the account behind them isn't active right now.
Cause 1: Your subscription term has ended
If your plan's term has run out, this is the expected message. Check your original confirmation email for the exact expiry date, and see how to renew. Renewals usually apply within minutes and keep your login and channel list.
Cause 2: A brand-new subscription hasn't activated yet
If you just subscribed, activation is normally instant but can take a few minutes. If it's been longer than 15 minutes, contact support to confirm the account status directly.
Cause 3: A payment issue on the provider's end
Rarely, a delayed or failed payment confirmation can leave an account in a pending state even after you've paid. Support can manually confirm and activate the account once the payment is verified.
What this error does not usually mean
It's usually not a device or app problem. The app reached the server and got an account-status response back, so the issue is almost always with the account.
Fastest fix
Message support with your username. It's a quick lookup on their end and is usually sorted within minutes, so there's nothing for you to troubleshoot.
