Re: I travel yo mexico and some channels doesn't work

I have the same problem. I am based in Mexico, created my Roku account in Mexico and Paramount+ on Roku says my region is not supported. That is wrong, as Paramount+ IS supported in Mexico on other devices. It just doesn’t work on Roku.

You guys need to step up and fix this because it’s been almost a year and we have the same issue. Paramount+ runs on Mac, PC, iPad, iPhone, Android, and a bunch of smart TVs but NOT on Roku.

Hi @Ikerah,

We'll gladly assist you with your problem accessing Paramount + in your region. We'd like to know more about it to help you further. Please provide us with more details.

  • Are you using a VPN?
  • Do you have cellular data so we can try connecting your device to your hotspot?

We'll be waiting for your response.

Kind regards,

Eunice

Re: I travel yo mexico and some channels doesn't work

Hello,

 

I do not use a VPN because Paramount+ and all the other streaming sites I am subscribed to work fine on my other devices.

I did as you suggested and connected the Roku to my cellular network. It worked fine with Netflix and other channels, but when I tried Paramount+ I received the same message: "Paramount+ is not available in your region". Well, it is available through my iPhone, iPad, Mac and smart TV, so I don't understand why in Roku it just won't work. 

I reset the Roku to factory settings, downloaded everything again, etc and nothing works. Please advise. Thanks
