RE: Geolocation for Disney Plus
I the past I have found that Disney+ and HBO MAX both use Digital Envoy/Digital Element.

Re: Geolocation for Disney Plus
It took me several months to get a Disney+ geolocation issue resolved recently. I sent emails to the known contacts. Got one response saying the issue would be investigated. Later, no response to additional follow-ups over several weeks. Phone calls to their consumer hell desk told me that they had already done what they could to escalate it. We were also told that it would probably not be fixed unless we had all of our customers call Disney directly and complain. It ultimately took several alternative contacts and some nice folks reaching out to me directly after posting to this list. And they had to escalate internally. Overall, pretty incompetent for the world’s largest media company. On Fri, Nov 12, 2021 at 2:07 PM Norman Jester wrote: > The contacts on that brotherwisp page for Disney+ do not respond.
