Less than a month after HBO Go crashed during the True Detective finale, the service went down again on Sunday night during the Game of Thrones premiere.
Some viewers had problems logging on to the streaming service. They would receive the following message: “Fatal error – Failed to load the service error definitions.”
HBO Go also tweeted about the issues with multiple apologies:
Looks like there’s trouble in the realm. Apologies for the inconvenience. We’ll be providing updates, so please stay tuned. #GameofThrones

We’re sorry for all of the trouble, but if you’re an @HBO subscriber, the @GameOfThrones premiere replays at 11 PM EST.

The service has returned to several platforms and we’re working hard towards full recovery, which we expect soon.

Many Game of Thrones fans went to twitter, Reddit and several other websites to complain about the lack of service from HBO. It is unknown how many users were affected, but it is estimated that some of the problems were fixed.
