Disney Plus is not acknowledging your email address due to;

Reason 2. Alternative email address

The email address you are trying to log into your Disney + account needs to be the exact same e-mail you used when you signed up and created your profile.

Using an alternative address will result in Disney Plus not being able to recognize your profile.

Reason 3. Disney server is down

You will not be able to access your on-demand streaming service if the Disney server is down as this will prohibit any access from being gained.
