Unbelievable. After all the mess and fuss and connecting trying to setup and account is nothing short of a nightmare. We got through most of it but then it wouldn't take the expiration on the credit card!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course maybe days later we hear off this posted message and may we don't. Ready to return this mess.
During setup, there should be a little "Skip" option on the screen when it asks for credit card info/payment option.

Are you putting in the full year?
My card says 01/26
Roku wants 01 2026
Or if you don't even want to be asked for a credit card number, you can use:
