crackle

When trying to watch a show on the app Crackle (offered by Xfinity) - it asks me to activate on their website with a  code. However, the code doesn't work and Crackle says Xfinity needs to update the app on their platform. The code Xfinity offers is a 5 letter code and needs to be 6 letters or else that proves the app needs updating and Crackle can't activate until that happens. I can watch it by going in to my LG TV menu, but not from the XFinity menu which is what I use of course with the Dvr and box. Is this being addressed by Xfinity, or why even offer it for programs? thanks

Can you log back out of crackle as since its a free on demand subscription through Xfinity its should not ask to activate a subscription

@XfinityOrlandoM​ I am now not able to get to Crackle through Xfinity at all. Whether from the Apps menu or through a show episode that says 'play on Crackle', I click on Crackle and it just times out to a blank screen evenutally. I have to go back to 'last' to get back to Xfinity menus.

@beaderz Hello and good morning, and thank you for reaching out over our Xfinity community Forums. I am so sorry to hear that you are experiencing these Crackle issues, that would definitely be really frustrating. You have reached the right place, and I would be more than happy to help in getting to the bottom of this once and for all. I would like to take a closer look at your account to troubleshoot further. To continue, please reply in a DM with your first and last name and service address by following the steps below:

 

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or  https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

 

See  https://comca.st/3KQF8q9 for an example.

I no longer work for Comcast.
