I am paying for Britt Box but can't watch it - why?

My Britt Box stopped working. Can't contact support directly so here I am.

Re: I am paying for Britt Box but can't watch it - why?

Let me guess.  You have an outdated Roku model.

Any Roku device models released before 2015 are no longer supported, so it’s time for you to upgrade to a newer model.  I’d suggest an Express 4K+.

No, all of my active devices were bought within the last year. One last week.

Provide the model number and software revision of your devices.  Find them on Settings > System > About, the bottom of the unit itself, or the bottom of the box where the production information and UPC code are.

When problems are confined to a particular channel, it may be that the channel didn't install properly, that it didn't update correctly, or that the installation has otherwise gotten corrupted. A reinstall may fix the problem, so give it a try.

Remove/reinstall procedure:

  1. Highlight channel on home screen.
  2. Press * key and choose Remove channel option.
    [Note: If this is a premium channel to which you subscribed through Roku, "Remove channel" will be replaced by "Manage subscriptions". Click this and follow the prompts to unsubscribe from this channel. (Don't worry. You'll still have use of it for the balance of your pre-paid subscription period. You can resubscribe then if you like.) Now the ”Remove channel" menu item will be back and you can remove the channel. ]
  3. IMPORTANT- DON'T SKIP:
    Restart the Roku to clear its memory. Depending on your Roku model and Roku version number you'll find "System restart" under Roku menu path Settings > System > Power or under Settings > System'. Without the restart to clear the memory you may not get a clean reinstall.
  4. Reinstall the channel. Note it will be added to the END of the channel grid.
  5. If channel requires a login, you may need to log in anew.

When completed you should at least have a clean copy of the app's current release in place.

If the problem persists at this point, it typically means the current version of the channel app has a problem that must be addressed by the channel itself as they are the ones that create the Roku-compatible version of their app and provide it to Roku.
