    I honestly think I’m paying for @HBO and/or @hbomax through like 4 different subscriptions…Amazon, Apple, straight from HBO and Google. So goddamn confusing just have 1 login that works across every platform. So confusing.

    @HBOMaxHelp your app is terrible. You are using Succesion to promote @HBOMaxLA , however yesterday's episode did not show up, and today every time I try to watch, it says an error has occurred. You have to step up your game, you are miles away from Netflix in that regard

  • triple5guy him (@triple5guy) reported

    @jazzminox @hbomax Thanks. More of what I want to hear when I'm getting off a work day.

  • HoeAssMrB Mr B. (@HoeAssMrB) reported

  • spycygrl Cinnamon Bee (@spycygrl) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp suddenly, every episode of every show is defaulting to subtitles ON. I turn them off and then the next episode in the autoplay has them again. It's pretty frustrating. Please fix it. 🛠

  • salutethesarg T Sargent (@salutethesarg) reported
