Crave Subscription Error 5005 | Easy Fix

If you’re getting Crave Subscription Error 5005, it usually means the app can’t verify your subscription status. This is commonly an account sync or provider-linking issue — not usually a payment failure.

Here’s the easy fix guide 👇


🔧 Easy Fix for Crave Error 5005

✅ 1. Sign Out & Sign Back In (Most Common Fix)

  1. Open the Crave app

  2. Go to Settings → Sign Out

  3. Fully close the app (force close it)

  4. Reopen and sign back in

This refreshes your subscription permissions.


✅ 2. Verify Your Subscription Is Active

Go to crave.ca in a web browser:

  • Log in

  • Go to Account → Subscription

  • Confirm it shows Active

If you subscribed through:

  • Apple App Store

  • Google Play Store

  • Roku

  • A TV provider like Bell or TELUS

Make sure the subscription is active there too.
