Netflix 139 error message. They say it's a firmware issue. Help!

I've also been getting this error message on my Ipad 2 viewing Netflix, but only when my connection to the internet is on a "slow" WiFi/ADSL line. When using TWC cable WiFi in NYC, no problems at all. The solution found is to delete and reinstalling the app fro the AppStore. Has anyone heard from an Apple source with a solution? Is it a question of not enough free memory on the iPad?

Suggest you update your system to iOS 7.0.4. That may solve the problem.

Thanks, but that's what I have installed iOS 7.0.4 (11B554b). Keep the ideas / suggestIons coming, appreciate it.

Same problem here. The app opens fine, it just won't play videos and I get the same error. I've uninstalled, shut down my iPad, and reinstalled several times but nothing. I'm on my home wifi network, haven't changed my login, password, etc. The only thing I've done differently in the last week or so is download Chromecast and HuluPlus. But -- I've uninstalled, shut down, and reinstalled those as well. I can cast to Chromecast, no problem. Just can't play videos on the device itself.

I am having this same issue. I tried creating space by deleting everything I could off my phone. That didn't work. I have deleted and reinstalled the app too many times to count. I spoke with Netflix and they couldn't help me. Its so annoying. I have IOS7 so I don't think thats your issue.

What is most annoying is that this is a common problem, but no one seems to be responsible, not Netflix, not Apple. Then who is? Anyone have a contact at Netflix or Apple?

I started having this same problem last night with my AppleTV. I could get into the Netflix app, see everything, but if I clicked on a something (My List, etc.) to try to select a movie I got a strange error message. Mine was slightly different than yours. I did all of the normal troubleshooting stuff, unplug, plug back in, restart, restore, etc. I called Netflix and was on with them for over a half hour. They ran me through the hoops then said they were baffled, said they had only come across a small handful of people who had this problem and that it was an Apple problem. Why? I was told because I could get into my account on my other devices. Not so fast people... everything else, every single other app works perfectly and can be accessed. It's THEIR Netflix app that's broke. BUT, for my inconvenience, they would give me a free month on my account (what does that tell you?). The problem had been handed over to engineering and someone would be calling me within 48 hours, they said. Okay, after my rant here, how was your problem eventually resolved?
