HBO Max Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RSchiltJr Guardian of the Gray(or Grey in other places). (@RSchiltJr) reported

    @hbomax I have had intermittent buffering issues with #SnyderCut on and off. Is that a know issue?

  • MiclainK Miclain Keffeler (@MiclainK) reported

    @hbomax are you telling me my fiber internet can't stream #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague or are your servers struggling? I'm no expert, but investing in a platform that can scale might be helpful :) Hint: It's not my fiber internet

  • KungPowPuss Abdullah Oladapo (@KungPowPuss) reported

    @thomasav @Philjimeneznyc @hbomax I mean I can hate him and all but he still contributed to DC Universe and some of his work served as some inspiration for the movie.

  • ClevelandKodiak Kodiak Cleveland (@ClevelandKodiak) reported

    Watching the #SnyderCut of #JuaticeLeague & it’s really good I can’t help but feel that @hbomax dropped the ball by not making this a limited series Then doing an even bigger release of the whole movie put together afterwards

  • travisjohnson A Vulcan Nerd Named T'ravis (@travisjohnson) reported

    @BritishCPA @hbomax Same! I detest the Whedon version, but this was good. None of the cheesy jokes or horrible CGI. It still had its problem (too morose for a large part of it), but I liked it!

  • sliderwave sliderwave (@sliderwave) reported

    Zack Snyder’s Justice League is nowhere to be found on my @hulu with @hbomax combo. This is a major disappointment. Any help would be much appreciated.

  • LightTerry Sick of Both Sides (@LightTerry) reported

    Hey @hbomax can’t tell if I hated Zack Snyder’s Justice league as much as the Joss Whedon’s or if I was just so aggravated that your streaming service sucks so much. Don’t advertise a movie your servers can’t support.

  • siwanoy Brian Savin (@siwanoy) reported

    @hbomax God help AT&T. Somebody please tell them to focus on building out fiber and wireless infrastructure and sell this looser HBO Max!

  • SJEthan89 PRINCE AKEEM (@SJEthan89) reported

    @ZackSnyder @hbomax Anyone having issues on HBO Max? Lagging and freezing. @HBOMaxHelp

  • KevinDontDance Kevin Skinner (@KevinDontDance) reported from Queens, New York

    @unprovokedsquid @hbomax Ah, I have problems with it on my PS4 all the time. Every other episode of @KeyAndPeele did the same thing, and often HD isn't really all that HD. Wonder Woman 84 basically looked like a good DVD. Netflix and Hulu look pristine, so it ain't the system.

  • raveryn Alessandro 'Lex' 🎙 (JLUPodcast) (@raveryn) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I appreciate you trying to help, but I'm pretty tech savvy. These are not solutions to my issue.

  • AllenPopper Allen S. Popper (@AllenPopper) reported

    @ZackSnyder @hbomax It was a great Movie. Got up at 3am before “virtual work” to watch it.

  • Father2Abby Timothy Alvarez (@Father2Abby) reported

    @IPossibillities @HBOMaxHelp Yeah, understandable. Glad I could help.

  • superroe285 Enero Bouie (@superroe285) reported

    @hbomax I've been trying to watch Justice League for 20 minutes the screens just black? Did we overload the servers?

  • Luke4982 The Spooky Luke (@Luke4982) reported

    Hey @hbomax, your #Roku app won't play @ZackSnyder's #JusticeLeague. Please Fix this immediately! Ty!

  • NedelkoDan Dan Nedelko (@NedelkoDan) reported

    @ZackSnyder @hbomax You are a TERRIBLE human being for what you did to @GeeksGamersCom just disgusting.

  • Z4RQUON Z4RQUON (@Z4RQUON) reported

    @ZackSnyder @hbomax Can’t watch it in Canada without giving my money to Bell Canada, one of the most evil & soulless corporations our great nation has ever spawned. I’d prefer to pay you, the fine people who made it, to enjoy your work but I guess I’ll have to find it on an illegal streaming site.

  • SJEthan89 PRINCE AKEEM (@SJEthan89) reported

    PLEASE, FIX YOUR SERVERS!!!! Tryna watch #SnyderCut for the fifth time and it’s lagging like crazy!! @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax

  • mai_tai_zombie Joe the bartender (@mai_tai_zombie) reported

    @hbomax what’s the point of having this stupid service if all I get is this title can’t be played right now over and over. Get it together invest in better servers or something

  • stitch1007 Stitch1 (@stitch1007) reported

    @koreylindberg @hbomax I'm having the same issue. Trying to figure out if it's the movie or the app.

  • CJ_TheBest16 C.J. Best (@CJ_TheBest16) reported

    @hbomax 8 ads in between a 4 hour movie for a paid app. Awful bruh

  • Luke4982 The Spooky Luke (@Luke4982) reported

    Hey @HBOMaxHelp, your #Roku app won't play @ZackSnyder's #JusticeLeague. PLEASE FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY! TY!

    @HBOMaxHelp The servers are still down. Do you guys know when they'll be up again?

  • Zaccooke2 Zac cooke (@Zaccooke2) reported

    @ZackSnyder @hbomax Hbo max needs to fix THEIR ******* STREAMING SERVICE!!..

  • Vash2123 Vash (@Vash2123) reported

    I just finished JL & what a great film! Much better then how it was before & more! Same with the fix for B.v.S. Before I didn't care for the DCU.But after this I would love to see how this universe continues.@hbomax #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague #JusticeLeagueSnyderCut #JusticeLeague

  • PoolBoy57 Michael Pool (@PoolBoy57) reported

    But @hbomax needs to fix their servers. Constant quality changes and buffering.

  • coolranchcat1 coolranchcat (@coolranchcat1) reported

    @JaredLeto @snydercut @hbomax You were the worst part

  • SergioBravoJr Sergio Bravo Jr. (@SergioBravoJr) reported

    @headgeek666 @ZackSnyder I wish I could watch it. Looks like @hbomax servers are swamped.

  • ne1up Report UFO Sightings & Cops (@ne1up) reported

    @auradeluxe I'm salty over my mediocre internet speed and the fact that no matter how long I have something paused on @hbomax , like that movie about 20 minutes ago, it doesn't make any attempt to download the slightest bit and buffer. Bad joke, sorry.
