Xfinity Stream App Not Working

I’m trying to watch the Xfinity stream app through Roku but get this error message every time I sign in: "...cannot support high speed data customers without a video subscription". I already pay for a video subscription and have used this app in the past. Please let me know how to fix this.

I get to the home screen on the app and I sign in using the code provided on “xfinity.com/authorize”. I’m told that I’ve successfully logged in and then the error message appears on the app itself.

@user_5u939z, would you be able to test and see if you're able to access and watch the XFINITY Stream app with another device like a tablet or mobile phone without an issue?

@user_5u939z thank you for the confirmation that it's working on other devices. I did have a couple questions when you have time to answer. 

- Have you attempted to clear the Roku cache? 
Here are the steps to clear cache: 

How to Clear the Cache
  1. Select the Home menu on your Roku's Home screen. You'll see it at the top of the left menu. ...
  2. Press the Home button on your Roku remote 5 times (quickly).
  3. Press the Up button 1 time.
  4. Press the Rewind button 2 times.
  5. Press Fast Forward 2 times.

- Have you checked to see if the Xfinity Stream App is up to date? 
Uninstalling and reinstalling will ensure the Xfinity Stream App is on the most recent update.

@user_5u939z I appreciate you attempting those steps, sorry to hear it didn't fix the issue. I found this helpful document that shows all the Roku compatible devices: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/activate-xfinity-tv-app-on-roku

- Is the one having issues on the list of compatible Roku devices?

I’m having this issue on both a Roku Streaming Stick 4K and Roku Express. Both are listed as compatible devices in that article.
