Support Your Producing Housewives (@RespectProdHWs) reportedFYI - no one sure ever by another #tcltv #rokutv - they are the worst. And then you call and the phone hangs up. Never again. @Roku @TCL_USA

Richie (@RichiePuregains) reportedDon’t ever buy @Roku theyre making junk that’s overpriced significantly. Every tv I have their POS products to use for @GetSpectrum has problems. By problems I mean everything they have including the most basic functions frequently do not work.
-
EriePop⁷🌈❣🖤 (@ErieP0P) reported@gagaoolala The subs still aren't working on the roku app either & it crashes when I try to fast forward. I contacted you all about this last wk & still not working 😞
-
Alan Hartland (@harty2you) reported@Roku hi, I live in the UK, I have a Roku streaming stick I bought in November 2025 from Tesco. I have had no problems with it until today. I am not able to use BBC iPlayer app. I have done all the resets but still not working. All other TV apps are ok ?
-
𝕯𝖆𝖑𝖙𝖔𝖓 {ł₮'₴ ₵Ⱨ₳Ø₴; 𝕓𝕖 𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕕} (@daltagnan_) reported@TCL_Global @PlayStation Turns out it was @Roku's new screen Trial. If this issue happens to you, go into TV Settings > Home Screen and disable the Screen Trial that is listed in there. Fix my issue right away.
-
Old Cynic (@SorryImDeadTru) reportedI have had @Roku streaming and TVs for over 7-8 years. I have currently 5 Roku TVs in my house. And I am about to dump them all. One about 6 months ago just went black screen. Fine it was cheap replaced it. Might have failed because of the issue in the recent class-action. But what is really getting me ready to leave the platform is Roku search. It always pushes the rental or paid options over what is available from the streaming services I already have. EVERYTIME. I'm looking for something to watch find a couple things in this app or that app, keep looking around decide XYZ movie is the best I'll find right now, but can't remember which out of the 5 I saw it in, go search and the options presented are paid. Half the time it doesn't even include the streaming services it knows I pay for. @Roku you are pushing too hard on your profit over the customer experience that has had me over the years adopt and standardize on. Example. Free on Peacock but these are the options you present.
-
Kickball Legend (@DrinkyUncle) reported@MSNOWNews your channel on @Roku has not worked in two weeks. Every other channel works fine. It’s you. Maybe you can fix that ****?
-
April (@MsWolfe8) reported@Roku Idk what is going on with this stupid TV ive only had a year! But I come home and all my streaming apps are gone and when I add them back Its giving me a error message!!!!!!! Never again

-
Bill Howell (@Bill_Howell_) reported@Roku I have done all that and I am not the only one complaining about this. Interesting an older Roku device in another room doesn't have this issue. It started with a new purchase of a new 4k streaming stick.

-
Primetime 📺 (@Primetime_TB) reportedFinally watching @this_is_acw After Shock. Starting from beginning. Had issues with devices so eventually settled in on canceling the subscription through @Roku and then subscribing to @Triller_TV+ itself and hopefully this will let me watch it on 2 tvs.
-
Ki (@Ki_fun_thoughts) reported@Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!
-
xprezeu (@xprezeu63204) reported@Roku I was going to join today but your app doesn’t say much. Yiu cannot chat because of bats in Apple phones. Does it work on Verizon ? I have no idea what a subscription is or how much it is. Get a new a manager. I’ll find something else I guess.
-
scottycatt (@scottycatt) reported@Roku @TheRokuChannel Just had the worst customer service experience with ROKU. Dealt with 6-7 different reps. Each one telling a different story of why my purchased subscriptions wouldn’t work. Ranged from uninformed to just plain lazy & uninterested in helping. NEVER AGAIN!
-
Greg (@Xuser784) reported@Roku system keeps crashing. This is a new issue as of today.
-

Imani Drayton (@imanidrayton27) reported@gcanderson57 @PlutoTV @Roku I'm using a Hisense Roku TV and mine does the same thing you've mentioned. I pretty much did everything reopened the app, restarted the TV and neither of those things worked. Like I said it could be the app that's causing the problem.
