Troubleshooting
The Hulu SOCs should not be removed from accounts and then added back to attempt to resolve issues. This may cause customers to experience additional issues.
- Check eligibility such as:
- A change of ownership may have placed the line on an account type that is not eligible.
- Hulu is not allowed for most Corporate Liable accounts.
- Confirm customers did not change to an ineligible plan.
- Determine if customers already have Hulu active on another line (since only one Hulu account is allowed per T-Mobile BAN).
- Advise customers to check the redemption SMS.
Customers may experience a spinning loading wheel or inactivity after they enter information on the Hulu page if they redeem using VPN (or appear to use one). The account is activated but blocked, so have customers follow these steps to resolve the issue:
- Ensure customers note the email and password they used to register.
- Log into T-Life or My T-Mobile.
- Select Manage > See Plans > Manage add-ons > Account level services.
- Select the Check activations status link > select Hulu.
- Select the carrot next to Hulu to expand > Manage Hulu > checkbox for T&C > Activate Hulu.
- Enter the email and password when prompted. Once they enter their password, they should have access to their account.
- Advise customers to access Hulu.com or the Hulu app.
- Instruct them to use the Forgot password process.
Check the subscription status in Atlas and determine if there is an active SOC on the account.
Subscription is not in Atlas
- Confirm customers have an eligible plan.
- Add an eligible Hulu SOC if the SOC is not on the account.
- Remove the SOC if it is on the account.
- Confirm the SOC is not active on the account and add the SOC back to the account.
- Create a ticket if the SOC is still active.
- Inform customers an SMS will be sent in 5-10 minutes and they can change to a different plan during registration with Hulu.
- Confirm there is an eligible SOC on the account.
- Follow these steps if customers forget the email address they used for Hulu registration:
- Open the account in Atlas and navigate to Toolbox.
- Select Troubleshooting.
- Select the Hulu Redemption SMS Issues Flow.
- Look for Check Hulu subscription status and scroll down to Subscription Status.
- Locate the field called ID (which is the Subscription ID).
- Provide the Subscription ID to customers and advise them to call Hulu to confirm their email address using the Subscription ID.
- The subscription will be canceled at the end of Hulu billing cycle and customers cannot change options from Hulu or purchase any adds-on.
- If customers want to reactivate their subscription, add the eligible SOC to the account and have customers follow the SMS instructions to go to the Hulu account management page and reactivate Hulu subscription.
- If subscription is pending, resend a new registration link to customers or explain how to navigate to T-Mobile subscription redemption page (Atlas > Toolbox > Account Support heading > Messaging).
- If customers do not complete the redemption process 113 days after the feature was added (but not redeemed), they will receive a final reminder message to complete the redemption.
