    What devices and browsers have you tried? Which login method are you using?

    I just tried several methods and had no problems logging in and playing anything.

    My login just stopped working but it was my Adblocker extension in browser that caused mine to not login. I have the app for Windows 11 and use Edge browser. I just turned off the adblocker, and logged back in, and worked for the app and website, then turned back on the adblocker. No resetting router or changing any settings on the router. That was it. I think FAH just does not like adblockers.

    After messing with this much too long, testing modem settings against networks that login, pull IP packet sniffs with much detail, looking into ports to open etc,
    it seems to me the issue is FAH not accepting certain IP addresses, because those numbers are from companies that work with VPN that FAH does not allow.

    I don't know how/why all other streamers deal with disallowing VPN based IP addresses, but seems like FAH could do better.

    After resetting things in my modem back to default and setting up wifi again, none of what I did mattered, when the ISP dynamic assigned IP address changed, FAH started working again.
    No changes on my part.

    Restarting the modem multiple times, it eventually gets an IP assigned from the ISP that FAH "likes" and everything works again, NO CHANGES to my gear.

    I can't change my gear to work solidly with FAH network - maybe if I PAID for a static IP address - but FAH should change to work with IPs the way the rest of the competition manages it.

    Yep. I've now installed MA anywhere. Weird that ALL these other streamers work just fine, but not FAH/VUDU... and yet it is MY problem.

    I'm aware FAH is supposed to be looking into this.

    NOW, router full resets, Wifi off is not allowing login.
    I'm looking into specific ports to forward/unlock to make FAH/VUDU work again. This is silly.

    ​​​​​​​Meanwhile, using MOVIES ANYWHERE as it has a vast majority of my films.

    I'm sure they would say it has something to do with security required by the studios.

    Does MoviesAnywhere have the same issue for you?
    while all the other streamers work fine?
    Not sure if I have access to MoviesAnywhere.... I might have one thing linked from there... let me try...

    Logged right in to that wihtout issue. I'm now confused what that is? Looks like my whole collection is over there too.

    What an annoying setup Fandango At Home/Vudu network is using that chokes this up where Amazon, Max.com, Disney, Youtube, and Paramount+ are not suffering from this networking hiccup. They just work fine.

    It says "Fandango" not "Fandango at Home" which is what Vudu is now called. Vudu no longer exists.

    And I'm not changing the default e-mail address I use for everything to an e-mail I never check & only have for random one-off things (which is why I was fine changing it on my Fandango account). For a company doing a "seamless takeover" to demand we completely change our accounts in order to keep using them, that's neither seamless, nor what these types of takeovers are supposed to be. The company I work for just bought another smaller similar company, and literally nothing changed for the absorbed employees except the name on their paychecks/business cards. They were able to keep using their same e-mail address, despite the domain changing from "@companyX.com" to "@companyZ.com" (and they didn't have to change anything themselves). And Fandango is a larger company than the one I work for.

    Also, I changed my e-mail address on my Fandango account per that other thread's post, and I still can't get into my "Fandango At Home" account in this web browser (the most current version of Chrome).
    yeah I read it wrong. I had changed my fandango.com account email (that i never use anyway) and it didn't help me at all

    Alright, so I figured it out. Your FANDANGO.com account can NOT have the same email address as your VUDU.com account. If both are the same, you will not be able to access your Vudu account.

    Since you can't change the address on your Vudu account because you are locked out, change the email address on your fandango.com account in the account settings.

    If you can't do that either, call customer support at 1 (888) 554-8838.

    Again, YOU can't have an identical email address on both accounts.

    this happened yet again to me recently. I opened a support ticket, then, couple days later, with no communications, it mysteriously started working again... everywhere but at my home.

    I'm on century link, and after a bunch of research, I did some stuff and fixed this myself.
    The issue is clearly fandango at home, and not centurylink gear, in that, all other streamers have always worked 100% perfectly fine, only FAH/VUDU has these issues.

    - the thing about having a different email for for fandango.com and vudu.com did not work FOR ME. I changed emails, and it didn't help anything.
    - updating the password did not help me
    - power cycling or rebooting the modem do not help login
    - I have no VPNs in play, this was never the issue

    I wasn't scientific in what I did, but here's what I did and something of it must have helped, maybe this will help others on Century Link or else where:

    1. I RESET my home centurylink modem by holding the reset button in while it was powered on, until the power light changed color. this wipes out all your personalized wifi and other setups.
    2. I unplugged the POWER cord from modem, and also disconnected the DSL cable that went to the wall. Unplugging that for about 5 minutes make the connection box down the street maybe reset its network pathing, and could help this issue. Plugging power and DSL back in, the modem reconnects and configures the hardware connection to the box down the street, MAYBE cleaning up network traffic flow.
    3. I DISABLED both 2.4G and 5G WIFI inside my modem, and was able to login to vudu on webpage again. I don't know which of these steps cured it. Maybe all of them?
    4. Reendabled both WIFIs and reset to my settings, all while logging out and back in to vudu at each step to be sure the modem didn't fire up some weird networking addressing translations required for its wifi. Everything kept working.
    5. I tested my phone, and wifi ROKU vudu and they are working correctly now.
    6. JUST IN CASE, I also RESET my Windows 11 networking, and at CMD prompt did a ipconfig /flushdns, but doubt that was needed as the choke point was always at the modem itself.

    In the past, just unplugging the modem seemed to cure failed login.
    Then, it started needing a FACTORY RESET.
    Now, I feel like maybe the powering off and unhooking DSL line for 5 minutes forcing the network reset down the street might have been the answer.
    OR maybe it was disabling the WIFI, then logging in, then reendabling WIFI.

    I say this is Fandango's issue because:
    - It didn't happen to me before they took over
    - although it seems to be with centurylink modems (reading other's issues too), it used to work just fine with no gear changes, all competative streamers I use work perfectly fine pointing to Fandango doing something not so brilliant in thier network security setup, possibly triggering something in CenturyLink modems - that no other streamers I've used ever had a problem with.

    If (when) it happens again, I will try to be more scientifiic to isolating the issue cause and remedy.

    Hope some of this will help others.

    I did that. I was successfully logged in. I bought a movie that was listed for the longest time but not purchasable. Then I tried to see if my 404 page not found movie was fixed yet (it isn't), and now I can't login again.

    And when I synced both Fandango accounts, I made sure ahead of time that they both had the same password, so I know I'm using the correct one.

    JFC, Fandango, Vudu wasn't without its bugs, but this is absolutely ridiculous.

    I got an email from Fandango today asking me to sync my login accounts between Fandango (ie Movie Tickets) and Fandango At Home (ie Vudu).

    Any relation I wonder.
