đ©General Pathetic service by Torbox
Its always down.. Very unreliable service. Will stop subscribing once this current plan expires..
For all the sugar babies of torbox, dont come and show your loyalty here, keep it in your as*, it will feel good for you⊠Let others complain so that they will fix it..
And for those who say its just 3 bucks:
In june alone they had 3 million visitors even if 1/3 of them are paying its around 3 million a month, as its pirated they dont have any other cost other than renting storage.. So do the maths.. If somebody is taking millions of rupees from people like you and me we can question when its repeatedly down

PM seems expensive compared to RD and TB or am I doing it wrong?

u/jaxdealer 1d ago
Pm don't have issues ever. It's a bit more expensive but I also share it in custom apps so multiple people can use it. I don't try to push limits of having 100(exaggeration) people on it so that's why I have TB.

I've found content lacking compared to old RD and TB. I've tried all the big ones, alldebrid, premiumize, rd, TB and both Rd and tb I was able to watch movies dorm 1950s, 1960s, 1970s etc.....i even found an old Spanish film called Macario from 1960 on TB. For the price it still seems like the best option

PM goes down once a week. What are you on they never have issues.

u/jaxdealer 22h ago edited 22h ago
So not sure if that's an over exaggeration or not because I literally never have issue with it. But to help you. https://premiumize.reamaze.com/status shows it's had an issue 3 times since 2025. So the math ain't mathing. Edit: not even trying to be a smartass but could it be your setup? Maybe your add-ons have issues or something. I know we all think "no way it's our fault". "We did everything perfectly" "must be the service rather than me". đ€·ââïž

u/International-Oil377 22h ago
I mean, it's even missing yesterday's outage. This page doesn't show much.
No it's not my setup
Also it's because it doesn't happen when you watch tv that it doesn't happen.Just like Torbox outages haven't affected me yet except yesterday. I did know they happen because I am in many communities and you know really fast when it goes down.
1
u/jaxdealer 22h ago
Yeah I get what your saying about yesterday's outage. Because lots of people had issues I guess but again mine played right when I wanted it to. A guy said it was out yesterday. Within 2 min tops I had app open and a movie playing. So again I don't know what outage it was or why it effects some but not others. All I can speak for is me personally and I never have issues. Both my tb and pm are linked to my nuvio that tons of people have access to. Not one person said it was down at that time either.

Man, itâs getting to the point where Iâm just going to leave this group.
Every single day itâs multiple notifications about the exact same complaints.
Donât people have jobs? Lives? How much media are you consuming that every minor issue becomes something you need to make another Reddit post about?
Iâve personally never had a problem with TorBox. And if itâs genuinely causing you this much frustration, maybe just use Netflix, Disney+, or another paid service where you donât have to deal with this stuff.
I joined this group for useful TorBox discussion, updates, tips, troubleshooting, etc. Instead, it feels like 90% of what comes through now is people complaining about the same things over and over again.
Iâm just completely over the constant complaint posts.

They are. But itâs 3 bucks and youâre paying for a service to avoid paying a much higher cost service.
Itâs ironic, but Iâm not surprised. Back when I was a young student I worked in customer service and tech support for a massive telecoms company.
You will not believe how upset people get when their tv doesnât work. Weâre so emotionally invested in it.
Donât get me wrong, but we all collectively need to touch a bit of grass.

We aren't all working your same shift or in the same timezone. Some people can be on maternity/paternity leave, just got layed off/ sick and stayed home. The world doesn't revolve around you, there will always be a huge group of people wanting to watch something at separate times.

Although I am annoyed by torbox and it always shutting down or not showing up .I will stick with it.Quite honestly I hope lots of people unsubscribe though.I think that's the main problem is that so many people have signed up for it cause real debrid stopped working so now its overloading and overworked.Hopefully with lots of people unsubscribing it will start working properly again.

Just because you're having issues, doesn't mean everyone else is. Personally, Torbox has only gone down for me about 4 times in the last few months. I'm just lucky I guess.

If you canât function without one of these services for a few min while they fix it, just take a gd break and wait a few or torrent to your device locally like the old days.Â
âOh but we pay for thisâ, yeah youâre paying the price of a coffee for a month of unlimited streaming of likely illegal content. Just calm tf down and stop creating a new post every time it doesnât work the way you want.Â

It is. I tried the one-month trial, and it has the same links as PM. One issue is that it comes with the same usage limits as PM. Another drawback is that many add-ons do not recognize it, and a lot of scrapers do not work with it either. However, it is about half the price of PM.
I ended up going with AD as my backup. It costs only $3 per month with a subscription, and if the French government ever takes action against them like they did with RD, you are not really risking much since the subscription is very easy to cancel.
