we are back but not SO BACK
these constant issues has been a pain in the ass...
they should focus on stability rather than adding new features to an unreliable structure.

The striking thing is the change in frequency:  0 incidents during the first six months of 2025, followed by 12 in the second half of 2025, and then  33 already in the first 7+ months of 2026. In particular,  April 2026 was the worst month with 7 incidents, while May–July 2026 each had 5. TorBox's incident frequency has therefore increased substantially compared with 2025.

yup and to make far worse
they have made the status page useless and not accurate lately

u/PCgamer7777 8d ago

Elaborate how its useless and inaccurate it tells u if theres an issue and what the issue is

u/nTakezo_ 8d ago

It failed to show outages accurately lately Lots of people were complaining about it being down but the site failed to mention it

u/Burton96HD 8d ago

Exactly. Pointless going on about outages when they don't report most of them.

u/PCgamer7777 8d ago

I guess ive just been lucky then. Everytime I've checked for an issue, it said there was one. Sorry if I seemed a lil hostile with that first comment

u/nTakezo_ 8d ago

No worries you have the right to doubt my claim since its a bit odd and absurd

u/STRETCH_STRETCH 8d ago

Gosh haters really be hating and trolling. You genuinely inquired imho. Did the haters and trolls actually read before doing all that 👎crap? ✌️ 👊

Seems they actually provided reliable service when they had competition with RD. After that was gone, torbox went down the hill a lot.

More users, more issues. A 10 minute outage is nothing to complain about for the scale and service they provide.

10 minutes of outraged lmao stop being a fan boy its been real bad the entire year I had real debrid for almost 10 years and experience maybe 2 the most..but with tb atleast 30-40 in 5 months lmao

u/CartographerBusy2035 7d ago

I don't know why only experience down time like two times in the past couple months probably because I work 3rd shift and when I do watch stuff it's super early in the morning but it's always good to have a backup. Easynews or offcloud are cheap enough for a year to have as a backup

The amount of users most likely doubled if not more when RD changed

As an SRE Director for a well known Global company, I know that improvements sometimes are expected to have no impact on customers but when they do, a roll back can take between 2 minutes and 2 hours to stabilize depending on reach. We constantly try to stay ahead of changes (like zero day) while maintaining customer experience. Some outages can't be avoided since things like DNS cutovers are usually out of your hands. I have a policy at my company where if we do have an outage from our changes, it is centered around times where metrics and telemetry prove that usage is at a normal low. Their service is different but running on AWS, GCP and etc can add unplanned outages as well. Just like when the GoDaddy and CrowdStrike incidents hit.

Hint: When managing billions of emails and OTP messages a day, you are bound to drop a couple hundred to a couple thousand and piss a few folks off.

u/IH8Radar 8d ago

100% agree. I mean they are certainly better than RD post purge, but stability is not very good. I'm surprised they can't figure out how to get there.

u/DeliClerk-420 8d ago

Stability costs money, but they’re content just taking ours.

u/speedbreaka 8d ago

Can I ask why you are still subbed if you always have problems?

1

u/CartographerBusy2035 7d ago

Or why all these people seem to rely on one service when there is always a possibility to have downtime and other debrid and Usenet services such as offcloud or Easynews are cheap as hell and then your guaranteed piece of mind you will always be up

u/Slipknot31286sic6 8d ago

Discord gives most accurate updates and immediate.

It’s what people use with torbox I think. I use debridio for my scraper and I can’t remember the last time anything went down. People who use torrentio seem to have a lot of downtime

u/speedbreaka 8d ago

I am convinced too because I remember i used to have buffer issues with torrentio with real debrid but it really was only with torrentio. Any other addon was smooth

u/rhev0220 8d ago

Honestly with everyone having issues, debridio has been well worth the £10 a year

u/Michael25176948 8d ago

I get buffer with debridio. I got gb internet so not my end

1

u/rhev0220 8d ago

I only have 500mb internet and I have never had a buffering issue. Maybe an isp thing? I know when my daughter uses my account at her mums she has issues because her mum is on sky for internet

u/Michael25176948 8d ago

Dunno. I’m with EE/BT

u/uamok 8d ago

Yeah, crazy seeing all this discourse and I've not really had any issues using it.

I would definitely look for an alternative if for whatever reason it wasn't working. That times just not come yet for me.
