oogiee 2 Posted June 25, 2019 I have been getting the same message when I try and connect with the online services (attached image). But when I go to Time Trial I can see all the leaderboards and my time gets uploaded when I do a lap as well. Please HELP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oogiee 2 Posted June 26, 2019 Still awaiting to know what the problem is. It connected somehow yesterday just once and I did a few online lobbies. But when I tried again at night and today in the morning I was getting the same issue. A few people from my league wanted to race last night but when I accept the invite it tries to go online and gives me the same error as the one above.

Faya 1,190 Posted June 28, 2019 Hi @oogiee, thanks for your patience while I had this investigated. Could you try removing the < and > from your Steam name for me for the moment, please? I believe the team is looking at a fix for this and I'll update you when I know more. Many thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm on PS4, not steam. PSN id is oogie_azeem. Let me know if the underscore needs removing? Btw, I found a very crude fix to the problem... Close the application and watch something on Netflix on PS4 for 10-15 minutes. Open the F1 game again and somehow it connects. Interesting, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faya 1,190 Posted June 28, 2019 Thanks for the response! Sorry, I forgot you were on PS4! So, possibly a strange question, are you connecting via a dev account at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oogiee 2 Posted July 1, 2019 Im guessing you meant developer account. That would be a no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faya 1,190 Posted July 1, 2019 Hi @oogiee, Sorry! I did mean a developer account. Thanks for letting me know! Let me go and poke the team again for you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oogiee 2 Posted July 5, 2019 @Faya still awaiting a fix for this. With league racing fast approaching, this is really gonna hamper my experience on this game. I'm not a career mode player, I do 99 percent of my racing online. Could you please expedite the matter a bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darthearljones 0 Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) I have this same problem on PC. Haven't been able to access multiplayer since 21/07. So i guess there goes this weekends league race. Edited July 25, 2019 by Darthearljones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surabhianand13 0 Posted July 31, 2019 You can solve that issue by removing the < and > from your Steam name for the moment or else you can contact the support team of that product as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
capticemannik 0 Posted August 2, 2019 I am on PS4 and have had the same issues. I played online on release day with no issues at all and had not played the game again until July 30th, and have had the same issues ever since. I have been unable to find a fix and there are no error codes just a simply “Online Services Error” and “failed to connect to online services.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aardskont 0 Posted September 11, 2019 I have the same problem on my ps4. Wi-fi works and all other games I can do online, but for some reason everytime I want to do do online races, it tells me "can not connect to online services" with error code 1008:H Any advice please? I'm busy losing valuable points on my league races. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
