HBOGO.com uses URL re-directs for customer logins (to a site called evergent.com) . These redirects work on Chrome, Firefox, and classic Edge perfectly.
On Chromium Edge (Version 76.0.176.1, dev, 64-bit), these URL re-directs fail: customers instead receive this erroneous error.
Is this happening to anyone else?
Steps to Reproduce:
Other browsers work as intended:

Sorry if this is stating the obvious, but have you allowed pop-ups and redirects for this site?

Allowing redirects does not fix this issue, unfortunately.
Did enabling redirects fix this bug for you? Or was that a general suggestion?

(1) No, because I don't have the problem*; (2) Yes - it just seemed so obvious that if redirects were disabled, your redirect would most probably fail. Not everyone finds all these esoteric settings, so I was just trying to be helpful.
* I had to google HBO to find out what you were talking about. I've never lived within miles of a cable network!

Ah, no worries. I wanted to make sure I got what you were saying.
Technically, you don't need a subscription to see the bug. Clicking any provider here should automatically fail with that error, if this is a genuine bug and not just something weird on my system: https://play.hbogo.com/login
I appreciate the help. I've tried on two systems, but both immediately spring the error. Perhaps a re-install will help.

I've figured it out! I'd cleared cookies on hbogo.com, but those are not the only cookies HBO stores!
To fix this issue (if you get it):
Refresh the HBO GO home page and voila, it will properly redirect this time!
