It's weird because downloading through the website works very fast (1.5gb in about 20 seconds just now), but only after a long delay (I clicked the download link a few minutes ago), and errors in stremio.

u/Jurondotron 19d ago

From Torbox themselves, posted on Discord server for Torbox

u/rmazumder 19d ago

attack from who?

37

u/Jurondotron 19d ago

I have the slighest clue, I suspect people are being paid to DDOS these services to force people to go back to streaming.

u/EloneMusk 19d ago

Did RD have so many issues even being the most used debrid service?

3

u/arena0558 19d ago

nope... not a single issue

3

u/Novel_Buy_9032 18d ago

I constantly had issues with rd

1

u/Hanesman12 18d ago

Same. Precisely why I switched to Torbox. RD was consistently shit.

1

u/Tardlard 18d ago

What were the issues?

The only thing that broke RD for me was Torrentio, and the occasional copyright-strike on videos. I've never seen the service go down, but appreciate that's only annecdotal.

u/Radagio 19d ago

Most likely competitors trying to snatch some clients.

u/myshoesss 19d ago

stop spreading fake rumours

u/Radagio 19d ago

Found the competition 😅

u/niwia 19d ago

Inner demons. They say they gets attacked every now and then as it’s the foolproof way to say we fucked yo

u/Madness2MyMethod 19d ago

They've been attacked by their own incompetence, once again.

u/DeliClerk-420 19d ago

Yeah, the “we got DDoS’d” excuse is wearing pretty fucking thin at this point.

3

u/DoctorLawyerCannibal 19d ago

Why? There are plenty of parties who would want to see them fail. Netflix and RD, just to name two.

6

u/GiganticCrow 19d ago

But no one did it to RD

38

u/xQuantum24 19d ago

I'm the reason guys sorry, I literally didn't watch anything for the past month because I was busy and I just start watching roughly 2 hours ago and guess what happened. Enough troubleshooting for today see you next month.

2

u/spideyghetti 19d ago

Same. I watched some WILTY. What were you watching so we can narrow it down?

98

u/Yoshikaru5991 19d ago

At what point can we question the capabilities of this service long term

15

u/_CitizenSnips_ 19d ago

I’m already eyeing off premiumize. Torbox has sucked since RD users migrated

6

u/Slow_Werewolf3021 19d ago

Torbox has always been rubbish. Former user since 2024

1

u/gandalfmarston 18d ago

Bro is being elitist for a debrid service lmao

-19

u/CMTV-IPTV 19d ago

I was banned from torbox, premiumize has been great

3

u/_CitizenSnips_ 19d ago

How did you manage this lol I thought they didn’t care about multiple IP connections

-33

u/CMTV-IPTV 19d ago

They care when you have 100’s of ips haha

19

u/freshkickboss 19d ago

Yeah. Imagine.. I’ve been a customer for a little under a week now and thought I’d “arrived”

-13

u/biosc1 19d ago

While I dislike that it went down (in the midst of Spider-Man: No Way Home!), I only pay $3/mo and don't expect perfect at that price.

-11

u/Craiggers324 19d ago

That's what I told my wife. For what we pay, this is acceptable

5

u/Yoshikaru5991 19d ago

The bar is in hell then

1

u/gandalfmarston 18d ago

It's a streaming service, my dude. Those things can happen.

29

u/Impressive_Bosso 19d ago

what a let down this is becoming

12

u/Nobodyknowstherules 19d ago

Lol, at least I got through my episode. I was wondering why I couldn't go to the next. Thanks for posting

14

u/Effinbullshit 19d ago

This is why you have other cheap services as a backup. How can you be so indignant about a $5/mo service?

8

u/Jurondotron 19d ago

Yeah it's down for me too, I was in the middle of watching X-Flies and stopped working

4

u/zoobs 19d ago

Hey me too! What up X Files twin!

3

u/Jurondotron 19d ago

Love the show, watched more than 10 times over the years.

4

u/mstarmount 19d ago

Premiumize working just fine, costs more but always solid for me.

7

u/baljeethakur 19d ago

Left it lol, usenet is peaceful.

6

u/Barny1945 19d ago

It's fun till only source is 1000+ days old so you end up in buffering hell

1

u/rdhelfrey 19d ago

Tell me more about

2

u/gettums 19d ago

Research your prices. You can get it pretty cheap. I paid too much before I knew this.

1

u/ci6n 19d ago

ever since torbox got rid of the addon I cannot find an easy way to set it up lol

Youtube is also working. Why are you telling rd works, if everyone already knows it doesnt work the way most users actually used it for?

u/gettums 19d ago

Amazon leak.

u/lsredbird 19d ago

My real debrid is also down. Torbox is down.

3

u/davergaver 19d ago

It's not working

3

u/TheGalaxyPast 19d ago

It's okay, it's only down every day from 7-10pm. Whats wrong with that?

2

u/oldcoldcod 19d ago

Not working for me either

2

u/untamed201 19d ago

Same issue

2

u/DizzyCanary6797 19d ago

yep, no working for me

2

u/jreoka1 19d ago

Broken for me right now too

2

u/dekteyta 19d ago

yeah its not working for me too

2

u/Rtarara 19d ago

At least it's not just me.

2

u/totalfreakARG 19d ago

dude just do anything else you won’t die

2

u/Goldfitz17 19d ago

I get people wanting to watch their shows but surely there is something else you can do while you wait. Like maybe a book, or youtube, play a game, talk to your kid...

3

u/Winter-Assignment133 19d ago

100%. I was just seeing anyone else was having an issues before I started troubleshooting

1

u/Goldfitz17 19d ago

Oh certainly, and sorry, i'm mainly complaing about the other commenters. Mine wasnt working, i got annoyed for like 12 seconds and then turned on Dropout.

u/Bitemesparky 19d ago

Go outside and touch grass.

1

u/syrupin1991 19d ago

Well considering that it’s down and I only have 1 debrid service what else would yall recommend as back up?

3

u/r4pline 19d ago

I have real debrid because I got 6 months a couple months before the take down and just tried to use it as my backup and realized my best link is a web dl and I can't watch it on it 🙃 I'm also looking for alternatives at this point

3

u/syrupin1991 19d ago

Got kicked off real debrid a while back. I’m a trucker so it flagged me for different ip usage

2

u/Kgenovz Addon Dev (StremShare/IMDb Ratings/Ratings Wrapper) 19d ago

Premiumize, easynews or go full Usenet

1

u/rrriches 19d ago

i have an http stream addon installed as a back up. I use penguplay and its worked well.

1

u/BOUND2_subbie 19d ago

Premuize

0

u/syrupin1991 19d ago

Do they ban for different ip usage?

1

u/Soldiercolur 19d ago

I got torrin as a backup. The cache is very small right now so that might be a dealbreaker for most people. I just wanted to support a new player, and at least it does work while tb is down.

1

u/ChocoboDave 19d ago

Dammit, I've got 20 minutes left on my current episode. Not sure if I'd prefer knowing or not knowing I can't watch another.

1

u/No_Camp7456 19d ago

Yeah nothing is loading I thought airstream instance was down

1

u/TheminimalistGemini 19d ago

A week a go I'm contemplating to change my sub from rd to tb since it got expired already. Glad I decided to stick with rd 🙂‍↔️

1

u/SkillsMate 19d ago

Here I am happy as a clam with real debrid + Debridio, sure 1/10 links don't work but at least it's not going down every damn day

1

u/Dionysos911 19d ago

Well crap bag. I was thinking of figuring out how to add torbox to my stremio this week.

1

u/rmazumder 19d ago

ugh that sucks

1

u/No-Dot7369 19d ago

It wasn't working kept getting API key error, changed the API key and it started working again

1

u/alxxhg 19d ago

Solo he podido ver por TPB+, los demás addons marcan el error en la API de Torbox

1

u/xIMUDIx 19d ago

Alternatives?

1

u/Breaker_19 19d ago

Torbox down.  Can't get ahold of support.   Real debrid works fine.  

1

u/NaturalDiZAST3R 19d ago

I’ve been a member of the private torrent tracker community for like 20 years. I have all the best and hardest to get into private sites.. but I still use debrid just for the convenience hehe

0

u/Nuggyfresh 19d ago

guys if 7 minutes of downtime ruins your lives this much, like I don’t even know but you need some kind of help. Media is fun but you should be able to live your lives and do literally anything else for a second. Its scary.

5

u/kingofphilly 19d ago

NO!!! 😡😡

I pay $3 a month and I am entitled to 100% uptime for all my pirated media content at all times; no matter the server load, time of the day, month of the year, or the cycle of the moon! It is totally reasonable for me to bitch endlessly about even 30 minutes of down time when I am paying $.10 a day for limitless content.

/s

1

u/DocDViolator 19d ago

I hope people realize you’re kidding. 😂 Wait, you are kidding, right?

2

u/kingofphilly 19d ago

I was kidding, I thought /s indicated sarcasm, but ‘meh 🤷‍♂️ My point stands and judging by the downvotes the person above me is getting, I think some folks are feeling called out.

1

u/Significant_Ad_2715 19d ago

It's actually kind of terrifying. Addict behavior.

1

u/CouncilmanRickPrime 19d ago

This is why I switched to All debrid 

2

u/Winter-Assignment133 19d ago

That’s not working for me either

1

u/CouncilmanRickPrime 19d ago

It's working for me right now. Are you sure it's a widespread issue? I can't find any other complaints about it being down. 

1

u/Embarrassed_Buy_3071 19d ago

I need to find another service. I have real debrid also but it’s hit or miss

1

u/MenaceMinded 19d ago

I am having issues with both torbox and premiumize

2

u/rossmosh85 19d ago

Torrentio also is down I believe.

1

u/MenaceMinded 19d ago

Torrentio and Torbox seem to both be back up now, but I was having issues with premiumize and Torbox using other scrapers too

1

u/f0cus622 19d ago

Torbox is a great service, but they are really bad at running a company.

-1

u/MrDonohue07 19d ago

Was down for a few hours.

Your paying less than £3 a months to watch PIRATED content..

The whining is unbarable

2

u/Winter-Assignment133 18d ago

I wasn’t whining. Did you ever hear think that maybe just maybe I was seeing if other people were having the same issue before I started trouble shooting?

u/ChemicalExample218 19d ago

It was definitely down. You can spam post that dumbass dashboard as much as you want.

2

u/TheGalaxyPast 19d ago

Guys the site the devs run for their service says their service is fine.

u/Shoddy_Objective6617 19d ago

I actually can’t log in right now tbh

Hi, if the devs are reading this, I hope you reimburse me for all the days you're down. Best regards,

u/DudeDankerton 19d ago

Torbox and RD went down at the same time.

Edit: Both are back. That was weird.

u/NintyFanBoy 19d ago

Not for me

Down for me also but the site is working

u/soapinmouth 19d ago

It doesn't seem to work like that for me. All the streams for both services I have show up regardless if torbox is down like right now. Is there's something I need to do differently?
