Channels & viewing

[kayla89]

I have purchased a Roku Express today. I already have one in the front room which i have had a while and works perfectly fine with UK channels etc. Purchased the roku express to go in the bedroom and it keeps bringing up USA channels instead of UK channels. This is running off the same UK network as the other one but just keeps logging in. I cant even use the Netflix on there as my netflix is obviously a UK account and the thing thinks im in America. Can someone help me please??

Are they both on the same Roku account?

Hi @kayla89

Thanks for letting us know about the issue you're experiencing.

If you are using a Roku account that wasn't originated in the region in which you are using your device, you may encounter issues within a channel. i.e. If you are using a device linked to the US, in the UK or another region.

To resolve your issue, we would recommend creating a new Roku account then link it to your new Roku Express. Since you're in the UK, the account's region will automatically be set in the UK as well. If you don't have any extra email address and you want to use the same email you are using at the moment, you can deactivate your existing Roku account then create a new one using the same credentials.

If you need help with the suggestions above, you can visit these links:

Let us know if this works for you!

All the best,

I’m having the same issue. My remote broke on the previous stock so I brought a Roku express. After set up I realised all my channels are American and my accounts don’t work on app? Not too savvy with things like this not sure what to do?
