Creating An Account And Register For Roku Tv:
With a Roku account, you have access to its multiple channels, you can download, connect that account on multiple devices and stream with your family and friends in different locations.
Creating an account on the Roku platform is free and relatively easy. You can do this on your TV using the Roku website myroku.com/signup. You would be asked to put In a valid email address and set up a highly secure password
You can also do this on your phone using the Roku app. Go to your phone’s App Store and download the Roku mobile app. You will be guided on how to create the account but you would also need a valid email address.
After creating the account, you would have to wait for the activation email. This email would be sent to the address you provided and it gives you direct access to start using the channel. Without it, your sign-up isn’t complete.
Reasons for not Getting The Activation Email From Roku:
If you have waited for about 20-30 minutes since your account creation and you haven’t gotten the activation email, then something is wrong. It could be either of these reasons:
There is an error in the email address you entered
This is the major reason why the activation email wasn’t sent to you, simple typographical errors. Having such errors in your address renders the email address invalid and so you cannot get any emails on it.
You entered the right email address but you don’t have access to it
If you don’t have the email address logged in to a computer or a mobile device or you have forgotten your email password, you won’t be able to access it to get the activation email.
You have a poor internet network
This could also be a reason why the activation email is being delayed. The internet In your area might not be strong enough to receive the mail in your inbox. It could be that you have already received it, but you don’t have the internet to refresh or open your inbox.
The activation email went straight to your spam box
It is possible that your email system failed to recognize the sender of the activation email and so sends it automatically to your junk or spam box. Without checking your spam, you would think the activation email never came through.
Things To Do To Make Sure You Get The Activation Email:
If you haven’t guessed it already, the first thing to do to make sure you get this activation email is to double-check your email address before clicking the ‘submit’ button during your registration.
Check to be sure that the email address you are using to register is your email and that you can access it. Also make sure you type it in the correct format, with no typos or numerical errors.
It is important to have a properly connected internet network, to prevent any delay in the activation email delivery. Connect the device you are using to register to the internet. If your network is poor, adjust your router or wifi antenna position or be patient until it gets better, if it results from bad weather.
Finally, always check your spam folder. Emails get sent to that folder all the time, even important mails. The mail system is just a robot and so it cannot tell which mails are important and which ones aren’t. Your activation email might be waiting for you to come to find it.
Conclusion
You might have to wait longer than 20 minutes in some cases for the activation email to enter your inbox. If you have double-checked all these factors we have discussed in this article and you still haven’t gotten the email, you might have to restart your registration or create another account but this happens very rarely.
