I saw where some were having problems logging into espn with firestick, me too! I have uninstalled and installed with no luck. It keeps saying I don't have the subscription which I do. I talked to Directv no help. I talked to Espn support no luck.
When I get activation code from Directv, I sign in put the code in and it doesn't recgognize my password which I have changed.
Lastly, Espn support told me to go to settings and click on espn account, don't have that box to click.

Roku which I have in another room works great!​

I had to sign out of my ESPN plus account and just leave the TV provider logged in. Sounds like you don't have that, but hope it helps.

I have had this problem with my Roku when trying to Login to my Hulu account sometimes. It's like it gets hung up. Tried like you did to contact Hulu and and Roku. Turned out it was my stick. Have you tried unplugging your Firestick from the power source and uplugging it from TV. I do this with my Roku stick and let it sit for a minute or so then plug it back in and usually the issue is sorted.

I will try that, I suppose it's like rebooting. Thanks

Are you able to sign on to ESPN plus on your PC? if yes, the id and password will be exactly the same on your firestick as it was on your PC. We had problems with Cspire log on using Firestick, but when we tried with exactly the same ID (Our email address) and password as used on the PC log on, it worked the first time we tried.

The next option is to google exactly your problem and if there is an answer, Mr Google will walk you through it. I am serious here.

Good Luck.

My Roku is the cheapest one made and is 3 or 4 years old. It works, but is really, really slow. When I choose ESPN from the selection list, it might take 2 or 3 minutes of the spinning thing before I get the next screen. Then when I choose the MSU game, it takes another minute or so to load and watch the game. Are the newer, more expensive Rokus considerably faster?
