Re: Netflix kicking me out of my Roku

Is there any chance you're using a Netflix account of a friend/family member that doesn't live in your home? Netflix has already announced they were cracking down on people sharing a single account. They might be starting enforcement on Roku devices, before they move on to others.

If that's not the case, then the first suggestion is to remove the Netflix channel from your Roku, reboot the Roku (do not skip this step), then after the reboot install the channel again. Sometimes apps get corrupted and a remove/reboot/install clears the bad code. If you don't reboot it, the removal is never completed and the corrupt code could remain in memory.

Re: Netflix kicking me out of my Roku

I'm not sure if you realize you're responding to a thread from 9 months ago, which to me suggests that this is not a widespread problem. In any case, I was letting mom use my Netflix account, and I just had to set my Netflex home to be her home. (There is a UI for this not just a mysterious timeout.)

If you can't fix it by: remove app, reboot roku, reinstall app, then I would lean towards canceling it, or calling Netflix support. Since you're so over it, probably just cancel it.

Banned but back. Because why not?
