Have just been watching a programme without issue. Unable to get back to the website itself upon completion though.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Yes, there's currently an issue causing a slow down of our APIs and grinding the service to a halt. All hands are on deck and we're working hard to restore it ASAP.

Lightbox - we are online TV.

Yup still down. Jumped on twitter and they posting it still down. Very disappointing I am on a trial at the moment and was looking like I was going to pay for it once it ended but it appears lightbox is still unstable.

Bit annoyed when the paid streaming service is down but the illegal sites are alive and kicking!

It happens with all services from time to time.

Apologies everyone. The service is back up now, which took a lot longer than we expected and hoped.

Well done team Lightbox! Not that I'm watching any more tonight, but good effort all the same!

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Great work Lightbox team. Up this morning in time for the 3 yr old to watch bananas in pajamas!
Mendit, this is the first time I have seen a major issue and I have been using the service more and more since the beta testing launch, don't let one issue put you off.

If it stays stable I'll be happy to continue. Just been getting annoyed with these services in NZ. Been looking for legal ways of streaming but each service seems to be flakyer than there illegal alternatives. I hope lightbox proves me wrong on this one
