Disney+ went down for some users yesterday in the United States, Canada and parts of Europe and Australia.
This was noticed when users kept getting an “Error 83” Message when the service hit some technical issues or server issues.
DownDetector was showing the following data during the incident:
This of course prompted people to go to Twitter and report the problems:

@DisneyPlusHelp I tried to stream disneyplus today on my phone and everytime it started to load a movie it would freeze and I would have to close out the entire app to get it un frozen. Are your servers down because I have tried the suggested fix and that did not help.

Not sure if is related or not, but one person said they haven’t been able to use it for 3 days!

Here’s the thing. Technical glitches happen. Heck whole gaming platforms have been taken down on Christmas before. It just goes with the territory. It’s what they do to fix it and ensure it doesn’t continue to happen that counts.
We will have to wait and see what happens.
What do you think? Did your Disney+ go down too? Comment and let us know!
