Die 3 Euro für diesen Mist ausgegeben zu haben schmerzt mir zutiefst. Von den beiden populärsten Filehostern in DE, DDownload und Rapidgator, gibt es nur DDownload, und das funktioniert eigentlich auch nur wann es will. Eigentlich funktioniert hier gar nichts. Man möchte was downloaden; Ach ne, einmal 30 Minuten warten, bitte; es ist echt frustrierend.

I’m done with Torbox
I’m done with Torbox. When I signed up for their Pro plan (which cost me over $60 for just a few months), one of the key features was their Usenet search. Their website even claimed they had access to “all the best Usenet indexers,” and honestly, it worked well at first.
But then, without warning, they removed the feature entirely. Now, if you want to actually find files on Usenet, you’re forced to pay for external indexers like NZB Geek. What’s the point of offering Usenet downloads if they strip away the ability to search for files? It’s like selling a phone and then removing the ability to make calls.
When I raised this issue in the Torbox subreddit, I was instantly banned. Their excuse? I was making “false claims” and “harming their reputation.” False claims? They literally removed a feature I paid for. That’s not false—it’s a fact.
Their response was that the Usenet search is still available through their “API.” Great, except I’m not a developer. I don’t know how to use an API, and I shouldn’t have to. That’s not a solution—it’s a slap in the face.
Instead of addressing legitimate complaints, they’ve focused on silencing users. And honestly, even without this mess, Torbox is mediocre at best compared to the competition.
If you’re thinking about using Torbox, I’d strongly recommend looking elsewhere. This whole experience has been a complete letdown, and I won’t be giving them another cent.

I chose Torbox for Usenet but after…
I chose Torbox for Usenet but after three months I can confidently say it is not worth the $10 per month. It does not support NTTP, and after asking multiple times, it seems that this feature will never be implemented. Additionally, downloading from file hosts has been rather frustrating. Many file hosts frequently fail to work, and after speaking with support, I received excuses each time for the issues, while it works perfectly fine through another debrid service. Furthermore, Usenet has been unavailable multiple times for several days, which has made the experience even more disappointing. Usenet also takes a long time to process downloads, with wait times varying from 15 minutes to 10 hours. I went back to Easynews for NTTP support.

The debrid service has been quite disappointing. Since it resumed operations in December, there have been numerous unscheduled outages. For instance, last Saturday, the service was completely non-functional, and the reason remains unclear. Additionally, the streams frequently buffer or don't work at all, and when this issue is raised in their Discord, the only suggestion is to install a VPN. In contrast, services like EasyDebrid and RealDebrid don't have these problems. I highly recommend considering those alternatives, as they also offer a larger selection of cached files, which can save you a lot of frustration.

Great UI, Bad Everything Else
Not worth it. While this service has the best user interface among debrid and torrent services, it falls short in nearly every other aspect. There are no refunds, even in cases where they mistakenly charge you twice. Torrents that aren’t extremely popular aren’t cached and take a long time to become available for download. Major hosters like Nitroflare are missing, and the standard plan only allows for one download per day—despite being a paid service. Competing debrid services offer significantly better caching, support for more hosters, and overall better performance, all at the same price. The only real advantage here is the UI.
Update: Funny how they claim to offer refunds in their reply, but their actual support email says otherwise. I was told no refunds are given under any circumstances, even if they overcharge you. Also, their response here was written by an AI, not a real support agent. Be careful before paying for this service.

Hey there, thanks for your review.
We allow refunds in specific cases, such in the case you are charged twice, you may contact us to get a refund.
Our cache is growing with our service, it takes time.
No major debrid supports Nitroflare. We support over 70+ file hosters on our website which is nearly equal to competitors.
On all of our paid plans, you have access to unlimited downloads.
If you contact our support team, and ask to speak with a human (all tickets are first answered by an AI), then we will be able to take care of you.

Thank you for your feedback. We have had issues with our hosting providers in the past, but this has been ironed out.

More and more disappointing
More and more disappointing, they said it was because of the new arrivals, but nothing is done to improve the service despite the increase in their income. I really regret having taken this service, I do not recommend it at all and I will leave as soon as my subscription ends. They are thieves who do not listen to their community.
