Basically, every time I try to use the Britbox app it spins around and around and goes back to the main Britbox icon.  Please see requested information below.

@Zararagirl 

Thanks for the information. 

Could you confirm, where are you trying to access the channel is it through The Roku Channel or Britbox standalone channel? And also kindly tell us what happen when you tried to access the channel, like the steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing. 

Keep us posted.

Re: Britbox is not loading on Roku device

Thanks for what you have done so far.  But I do not understand why it is taking so long to correct the problem. Such a disappointment to not be able to watch the Coronation via Britbox on my Roku tv.  This is not a new problem but a recurring one.

It is standalone channel. 

When you click on it,  there is a spinning circle, then it returns to home screen.

I've done ALL of the recommended fixes. Restarting. Deleting and reinstalling. Software updates. Etc....

Re: Britbox is not loading on Roku device

Exactly what has been happening on my Roku since December of 2022

I am using the "BritBox on Roku" which is better than nothing, although I do object to paying the same for less content, which I have mentioned.  I was watching a few episodes of a program every day, which suddenly disappeared.  I was told the program was not available on the Roku version of BritBox.  Funny how I could watch it for a few days, then it is suddenly gone.

Oh well, I am trying not to let it bother me too much, but it is very frustrating to say the least.   And I am really tired of being asked to go through the same steps again & again.  It's pointless.

Thanks for the information. 

Can you also confirm, if the issue occurs on the standalone channel or through The Roku Channel?

We'll submit your details to our Support team for further investigation.
