-
Annie (@annlau613) reported@hbomax Is this gonna be as crazy as Baby Reindeer because that show was like a car crash I couldn't look away from
-
ProfessorHulk52⚾🏈🏀 (@professor5269) reportedThe worst streaming app by far is @hbomax @HBO
-
Kevin (@GoatHCW) reported@hbomaxhelp hello? I paid 39.99 for AEW PPV only for it not to work. Will you be issuing refunds?
-
katie Henderson (@katiehe201587) reported@hbomaxhelp Been in an email loop with support doing the same troubleshooting steps repeatedly. Issue: Friends degrades in picture quality after ~15-20 min, every time, only that show. App updated, reinstalled, TV restarted — multiple times. Need actual escalation.

Irwin M. Fletcher (@IrwinMFlet32077) reportedoffended by Bateman and the idiots that did @HBO @hbomax DTF St. Louis. What an AWFUL ******* show. So talking slowly and or whatever Bateman does is funny? Every episode this slow delivery of talking like dumbasses is funny. Get this trash off of Max #DTFStLouis #HBOMAx

Alfred (@ADlDAS5150) reported@hbomax why is audio description on on the new season of primal why doesn’t it let us turn off? Can you please fix this f’n thing?

Jason Ader (@TheJasinator) reportedHow to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand #DavidEllison Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

mikegb (@mikegb) reported@hulu @hbomax @DisneyPlus trying to give you money right now and seeing constant errors. Really f'n frustrating when I can't see the end of this basketball game.
-
eliteal (@eliteal210) reported@ethankoo22 @hbomax understandable, but since it looks like her condition is deteriorating it could potentially affect her ability to be an attending. a 10 sec absence seizure when you have someone's life in your hands is a huge problem.
-
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.

steph (@WestonFollower) reported@hbomax if he doesn’t leave these women alone to work… speaking of work bring back samira mohan to clock into season 3🌟
-
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?
-
Dr P (@pm_phd) reported@hbomaxhelp @MMoneyCarson Your app is super frustrating. It gets stuck at the ad break and loops without moving on. Restarting is not a great fix. It seems like a glitch at your end, how about posting something helpful about this instead of making customers troubleshoot?
-
Jp *checkmark (@RealJPSquared) reported@hbomax if you can't competently stream live sports, give it to someone else. Choppy, audio goes out of sync... This is the worst garbage stream I've ever had to deal with.
-
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.
-
coach mack (@onceugomack) reported@hbomaxhelp audio keeps cutting out on the March madness games. No need to respond just fix it
-
Brad Winchester (@WindDuster) reported@hbomaxhelp Three hours deep into a show to fix it is diabolical.
-
Jason Lambert (@JasonLambert80) reported@hbomaxhelp @EyE_dIg_GrAvEs @hbomaxhelp what if we just want a refund do to the show not working on HBO max
-
George G (@GeorgeG92483038) reported@hbomaxhelp I can barely stream anything and watch it. Keep having to stop and start because the audio is not in sync with the video. Please fix this issue.
