Do you mean that you can't add the channel;s to your devices via the "Streaming Channels" option on the Roku Menu?

Are you having the same issue when you try to add them via your account on the Roku Website?

I have these channels on each of my devices:  3500X, Roku 4, and Roku Ultra -- is your device older than any of these?

Different Roku models have different capabilities. Many channel apps require the enhanced capabilities of newer models and cannot be installed or run on outdated ones.
What model Roku do you have (not just model name but model number as several Roku models have similar names)?. Check via Settings > System > About.

[Edit:  Oops, sorry.  I missed where you said you have a Roku Express.]

Prime Video:
Prime Video is available for Roku 2 (except for models 2720x and 27020EU), Roku 3 (except for model 4230x), Roku Express, Roku Express+, Roku Streaming Stick (except for models 3400x, 3500x and 3500EU), Roku Streaming Stick+, Roku Premiere, Roku Premiere+ and Roku Ultra as well as Roku TVs.

BINGO!!  Could not agree with you more!  Go to BBB with an official complaint if you don't get help.

Hiya! Roku Express is enlisted in your list of models that Prime Video will work on. I have one, have added the channel , launched but as soon as you play a program it restarts immediately and every time. And going to channel store too, keeps restarting. Getting frustrated now as this freaking product is not cheap to be owned and not give you a satisfying service. Please help!

The "freaking product" is cheap to purchase and free to own.  I hope you didn't pay someone to activate.
