    @Roku Problem started July 5th I’ve tried everything, sound still works but tv screen is still like the picture above, I’ve seen on Reddit that your tvs do this to plenty of people i don’t think anybody has a fix for it yet

    Geoff Meador (@geoffmeador) reported

    Our @Ask_Spectrum outage has lasted all morning and USA vs AUS is coming up, so I just switched our @Roku TV to OTA antenna… except, in the most idiotic decision imaginable, watching antenna TV on Roku apparently requires a working internet connection now. 1/2

    @tacooghost @Roku I've seen where others have watched the episode already. I was thinking it was a problem with the subscription through Roku TV that was the problem.

    @hooplaDigital programming on @roku tvs has problems with closed captioning. Won’t display text. Happens across multiple TVs/setups. Can’t pause video either. Happens a lot.

    @Roku Nevermind. Not only do you refuse to help, but you completely reformat the home screen to “suggest” 20 different apps or shows and only show 1/3 of my installed apps so I have to search for them. You’re useless. **** off. Buying Firesticks Saturday.

  • StepfordDiana

    @Roku You've removed the option to cancel a paid app subscription on the new homepage I need help

    @red_chem_lite @Roku You need a zapper for when they touch it, they will learn which. Our friends have two boxers that were like this and within the week they were broken.

  • sandiek
    sandiek is in the skiiiieeesssss (@sandiek) reported

    haven't been able to watch @espn on @roku for weeks because the app is effed up and apparently using an outdated login token (have uninstalled and reinstalled already). Fortunately it works on my @madebygoogle gtv chromecast, so we're (mostly) fine.

  • Zero_Jehuty
    Zero Jehuty (@Zero_Jehuty) reported

    @Roku Who do I need to contact about an issue with a commercial on your service? My mother saw an ad for a assistance card, and since she did that, she has been getting non stop spam calls meaning a commercial on YOUR service sold her phone number.

  • Peter_B_Jones
    Peter Jones (@Peter_B_Jones) reported

    @roku so you sell me on your wireless surround sound then discontinue the products that work with it so that when one dies I can't even use a measly discount code on your website to replace the device! Garbage!

    @RokuSupport @Roku paying for your home monitoring service but your Entry Sensors have been out of stock for TWO YEARS. Frontline support has no answers. I need an escalation manager to contact me about hardware availability. This is a security system, please help.

  • ZakkRyan
    Zakk Cornish-Fraser (@ZakkRyan) reported

    @swiftfairy_13 @DiscussingFilm @Roku I highly recommend any tv that doesn’t have a build in service like Roku. Many makers and retail chains can sell same models but last few numbers are dif so you get less quality out of it. There’s some fantastic options out there though

  • bleezy_db
    mmmhmmm (@bleezy_db) reported

    @Roku Please fix the home screen. At least make it to to where we can land on the screen that allows us to see all of our apps on one page.

    Hey @Hisense_USA @Roku, I bought a brand new 75" tv on july 5th and it's stuck in a boot loop out of the box. I've already tried every troubleshoot with support and emailed my receipt for escalation but now I'm being ghosted. Can someone actually help? Case # is S100002681

    @Roku fix your live tv displays. It shouldn’t be so hard to list what’s being shown when it’s supposed to be in constant rotation. I’m sick of seeing NO DATA AVAILABLE

  • CaitlinKazarian
    CKAKRK (@CaitlinKazarian) reported

    @Roku your support sucks. It says it’s an agent but it’s just AI. Sent multiple screenshots and the “agent” didn’t even bother to open. Sick of paying for subscriptions that I can’t use on my tv. No one is of any help. Done with Roku and being charged for things I can’t access!
