Frank Castle (@MrSpacely313) reported@hbomax please fix the audio on @aew Revolution. It’s so hard to watch. We all paid for this. We deserve better. #AEWRevolution @TonyKhan
-
Frank Castle (@MrSpacely313) reportedI’m done with @hbomax. Service doesn’t work then when I contact them for a refund they tell me they don’t do refunds. Real great business practices. #AEWRevolution
-
Steven (@FatGuyLilCoat89) reported@JayBeasta @hbomaxhelp I had to go and order it on Prime because we're 40 mins in and no fix. HBO assist has been useless and said they'll "email me" with a specialist, when asking for a refund.
-
rick (@anamorphric) reported@hbomaxhelp @teddy_nst Everyone is having the same issue and you guys aren’t actually doing anything to fix it
-
Jimmy Midyette 🇺🇸 (@JimmyMidyette) reported@JeremyH418 @hbomax @jk_rowling I doubt it seriously. Between the wokesters who will actively cancel their HBO accounts over it and the distressingly large swath of people freaking out about Snape’s skin color, I suspect it will have trouble finding a big audience.
-
Synchronicity (@74Synchronicity) reportedDear @hbomax and @NOWTV - why can't I download The Pitt onto my iPad to watch on a flight tomorrow? Is it a glitch with the new platform on Now TV, is it a problem with this series or is this simply unavailable for download for Now TV Subscribers?
-
Sasha | Gen 10 HYPE (@Sasha_Arilda) reported@hbomaxhelp @HBO @AEW Plz fix the hbo max stream, I still am sitting on a loading screen
-
Brian Roach (@bwroach) reportedDoes anybody else's @hbomax app shut off after 2 episodes of a program? For the past 3 days, everytime after 2 episodes of a show HBOMax says "error no internet connection" even though I still have a high internet connection. What's wrong with the @hbomax app on @xbox?
-
Kenny Eckley (@Yamikeck) reported@hbomaxhelp i want a refund. i bought the aew ppv from your app and almost a hour and a half in it is still not working. I had to go to youtube and pay for it for a second time to be able to watch the ppv.
-
TheRealChiste (@TheRealChiste) reported@alissaTweets @hbomax @TonyKhan Highly doubt it. I once had a streaming issue with another service that wouldn't refund me, so I unsubscribed next day.
-
Andrew (@Coneandonly_) reportedHey @hbomax your audio issues is making it hard to enjoy this show 100% @AEW #AEWRevolution think I deserve a refund @TonyKhan
-
maligator (@kohoccm) reported@LGUS @hbomax Bought an LG stove Dec 2025 — broke within a week. 5 service visits, none fixed it. 4‑hour windows cost me work/pay. Escalations ignored, no callback. LG service is terrible — do your research before buying.

thinksojoe (@thinksojoe) reportedI've been a fan of this dude since he was Prince Puma, and had been enjoying his work in AEW, but I have seen first-hand how badly MS can affect someone, and have helped raise money for MS charities. @TonyKhan I hope you know I'm turning off @hbomax whenever he's on.

Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported@hbomax - Might be a new stream service here in the UK, but damn it's awful. Just watched Batman v Superman, and the quality was like bad dvd quality, and it changed aspect ratio...frequently. Never, ever had that in my life. 1 month sub, quit.
