They must be checking the credit card billing address or something?
Anyhow, good thing they spent money "fixing" that, it just took me 3 minutes to get around it.
Surprised me that even the virtual card # was 'connected' back to me as a former subscriber. I DO have a hulu acct that just expired last week. Different email, credit card and it still knew who I was.
Could have been a cookie somewhere. I didn't get around to clearing the hulu ones?
Thanks OP!
Because I had no problem resubscribing after having been an off/on subscriber for years with a single account and single payment method. However I had the account canceled back in June of this year waiting for The Orville to release.
I used two different emails I'd used with hulu before, but not in the past year. WITH a new virtual credit card number. No go. Said I wasn't eligible.
Created brand new email address and used paypal, worked fine.
May have been a cookie hulu set on my computer. I was about to clear the hulu cookies as my next step.
Many others reporting the same, just giving a heads up on how to make it work.
In my case, I am on the $1.99 deal from last November and added a $100 Hulu promotional credit in July. My credit card hasn't been charged in 4 months, so my current balance is $92.04. My next 12 months of charges at $6.99/month are all showing as being charged to my gift card balance, which makes sense as I have just over 13 months' credit at that rate.
An important thing to note; I've read that if you cancel your subscription with an outstanding gift card balance, YOU FORFEIT YOUR REMAINING GIFT CARD BALANCE. This would be a huge loss in my case, so it is better for me to take the retention offer of 6 months at $2.99/month and skip this year's deal. I'll have to reevaluate again next year.
