Hi everyone,

Thanks for reaching out to the Roku community!

We appreciate your patience regarding this matter. I understand that you are receiving an error message "We can’t seem to reach you by email" when activating your Roku devices.

You can try performing a factory reset on your device. This will reset all settings and return your Roku device to a state ready for initial setup.
For more information on how to perform a factory reset, visit our Support page here: How do I factory reset my Roku® streaming device ... 

Follow the steps below from your Roku device to perform a factory reset.

  1. Press the Home button home on your Roku remote.
  2. Scroll up or down and select Settings.
  3. Select System.
  4. Select Advanced system settings.
  5. Select Factory reset.
  6. Select Factory reset everything and follow the on-screen instructions.

If you are still unable to resolve the issue please provide the serial number/device ID on your Roku device. I'll be able to pass along the information to the appropriate Roku team to investigate further.

I hope this helps! I'll be here if you need anything else.

Many thanks,
Mary

Hello from the 20th of May 2021 and I am having this exact same issue. 

I am not even getting any emails sent to me all I get is a "We can't seem to reach you by Email" error, try clicking or tapping "Resend"  or "Edit this email address"

When I tap resend, nothing happens!

I have tried a different email, still nothing!

Super Frustrating!!!!!

Hello from the 20th of May 2021 and I am having this exact same issue with my Roku Smart TV 

I am not even getting any emails sent to me, all I get is a "We can't seem to reach you by Email" error, "please try again" then it asks me to "Resend"  or "Edit this email address"

When I tap resend, nothing happens!

I have tried a different email, still nothing!

I cannot even go out from the error page, pretty much stuck and when I unplug and reconnect the TV, it tells me to enter email to activate and then I do, and then the cycle continues! 

Super Frustrating!!!!!
