roku xfinity stream not working

I called customer support and they stated they no longer are supporting Roku as a streaming platform.  As I have been using these services for over the past 4 years this is really a disappointment as i finally got the service with internet and NOWTV that i want and then they no longer support it.  And buying more devices such as thier flex TV box or chromecast is ridiculous as Roku is one of the largest marketshare devices in the space @50%.  If someone can read this - i suggest you support this app or you will have lots of unhappy customers.

... they stated they no longer are supporting Roku as a streaming platform ...

I don't think that information is correct. There have been no announcements to that effect, and I would expect that if they had dropped support this Forum would be flooded with complaints. My own Roku box is still working.

What model number Roku device do you have and exactly what sort of problem are you having trying to use it with the Stream app?

It is the flex package it's a streaming package that Xfinity offers.

Xfinity you let us all down again. Not only with your pricing but your poor customer focus.  I wish I had Verizon in my area.
