I have a paid subscription to acorn.tv on the roku channel. "Midsomer Murders" is part of acorn.tv subscription, yet all episodes (except season 20) still have commercials. I thought paid subscript...

After watching Acorn TV, bought through Roku, commercial-free and paying Roku $5 a month, suddenly (today) we get commercials. We restarted the Roku several times. I guess the right thing to do is drop our subscription from Roku, and contact Acorn TV directly.
9/27/2020 I started a subscription to Acorn TV in August. Everything was running superbly until two nights ago. Since then, for every episode of "Doc Martin" there has been four segments of four ads. I am NOT interested in seeing 16 ads. for anything. Isn't a paid subscription supposed to be ad free? I noticed the same canned response from Roku to other service issues. Anyone else having issues, and what is there to do about it? FRUSTRATING!!
Did you contact Acorn TV? Not all subscriptions are ad-free. Many services have multiple tiers, some with ads, more expensive ones without (CBS All-Access and Peacock are two I know of.)
Thank you. I'll try Acorn, but my understanding was that my service was ad free.
I was watching Acorn via Amazon Prime. I've subscribed for a year with no ads, then this weekend there were 1 or more ads every 8-10 minutes. So I thought it would be better via Roku, it's not! So frustrated, disappointed and angry. I will NEVER buy or use anything from an ad forced on me, especially when I can't opt out of ads!! What can be done and with whom? Acorn? FCC? Roku?
I have the exact same problem. On my old Roku Device which I was watching this morning there were no ads at all. At lunch time I replaced it with the new Roku (I was no longer able to get Hulu) but still watched acorn via amazon prime. Soon as I installed the new Roku and tried to watch acorn Boom Commercials! This is BS!!!
Yes, having the same problem. October, 2020. Ads are starting to appear during Doc Martin episodes, even though we subscribed and pay for Acorn through Roku. $5.99/mo. Here's what we do. On our Roku TV we navigate to the Acorn box, click on it, then click on the Doc Martin box, then navigate to the episode we want, then start watching, and pretty soon here come the ads.
So, how to get Doc Martin without ads? Also, is there any way to watch Doc Martin episodes from Season 3 and onward in high definition? Acorn seems to stream low def.
