It is unclear what the exact cause of these issues is but reports regarding them surfaced after Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 went live.

However, affected players may not have to contend with these problems for long as Fortnite support has acknowledged them.

It seems Epic Games is aware of the aforementioned issues and is already working on fixing them. Also, Fortnite support has shared temporary workarounds for the affected players.

Those who wish to buy 25 Battle Pass levels in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 at the discounted price can do so by heading over to the Battle Pass section then manually purchasing 25 levels from the Buy levels menu.
