  • ItzSynch Synch (Ian) (@ItzSynch) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp What is with this buffering issue? Every new movie we watch literally buffers and or stops, my internet is super good and HBO either stops the movie and also doesnt respond then i have to reset the app completely. What is the actual issue?

  • felix_jahswill Richard Felix (@felix_jahswill) reported

    @mike_hackler @hbomax I had similar issues few weeks ago too.Reached out to support but got no response from them . Just when I thought I’ve lost it all, I came across @eric_cyber on IG who helped me recover my lost account

  • BradAT Brad Thompson (@BradAT) reported

    I literally have to hard stop/start my TV EVERY time I try to go back to the homepage of @hbomax. After the volume of complaints they get on social for the worst UX, you'd think they'd make an effort.

  • BMoovin Baudi Moovan (@BMoovin) reported

    Bro @paramountplus fix ur friggin app on everything actually @hbomax too why can’t we skip intros ?! Everytime I rewind in paramount + it goes back to a scene that happened in the beginning of the episode

  • Melanco11 Isaac (@Melanco11) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp someone stole my account. I just got an email with a changed email address. I tried to contact your ****** customer service and it’ll take 29 minutes. Fix it now or I’ll do A charge back.

  • ecksjay ECKSJAY | OAKLAND (@ecksjay) reported

    @DanteRoss @hbomax Weird, never had any issues with it on Apple TV or iPad.

  • lahKayxo kayy ⁷ (@lahKayxo) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Safari. And no, the issue is that i have to turn it off every single time I watch something. If I turn it off for an episode, why is it turned back on when the next episode plays directly after? Does it not carry over?

  • kayrob7 Kayleigh (@kayrob7) reported

    @hbomax will your ps4 app ever work so we can watch one single episode without some sort of error????

  • petremihai Nicolae Petre Mihai (@petremihai) reported

    @el_capi_de_siam @hbomax @DiscoveryIncTV What a dumb reason to cancel a subscription. Because of a terrible movie, even if HBO Max has countless great movies and TV shows. That is the definition of a moronic toxic fan.

  • GageNasty Gage (@GageNasty) reported

    @hbomax my account was hacked, they changed the email & password, and now I can’t access it. Please help

  • Daniell02842478 Daniella (@Daniell02842478) reported

  • eatandknothings ava (@eatandknothings) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I once called the atc control tower of an airport and told them I could not come in because I was sick…. I don’t work for air traffic control in any capacity I was a ground handler from an airline and I shouldn’t have had their number in my private phone #aviation

  • GageNasty Gage (@GageNasty) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @p10q @jasonkilar I’m having the same problem! Can’t access my account because someone changed the email & password! Please help!!

  • lahKayxo kayy ⁷ (@lahKayxo) reported

    Is audio descriptions automatically turned on or something?? I have to keep turning it off after your servers go down and I need to refresh 😐 @HBOMaxHelp

  • bronze_bae joi 🧝🏽‍♀️ (@bronze_bae) reported

    @hbomax somebody keeps hacking my account and your customer service rep is being absolutely no help at all

  • SuperHighDougJ Luit Dev (@SuperHighDougJ) reported

    @el_capi_de_siam @hbomax @DiscoveryIncTV This is the problem. They won't bother to read such a long thing. Should've written it in a short but effective way. This is useless now.

  • doodlesecurity Michael Langan (@doodlesecurity) reported

    @hbomax I am in the military and moved to Belgium and can not access HBOMax to cancel my membership since it doesn't work here - you keep forwarding me to a "not in service area" page - PLEASE HELP

  • itsTalha97 Muhammad Talha Saleem (@itsTalha97) reported

    @el_capi_de_siam @hbomax @DiscoveryIncTV I thought the WanerBros very good being creating DC comics films or animated. When I was kid I am big fan of Justice League Justice League Unlimited. But now they don't deserve it. Zack Snyder work in MoS BvS & ZSJL truely show the worth DC movies. #RestoreTheSnyderVerse

  • travisc55980804 travischase (@travisc55980804) reported

    @CasualThursday @hbomax is the worst app I've ever had by far. Crashes every 15 mins. I'm a couple weeks from cancelling.

  • PolitiJosh Shmerkin (@PolitiJosh) reported

  • mammothguy [NAME REDACTED] (@mammothguy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp my Roku app is defaulting to Spanish and can't change it. How do I fix it?

  • WannaBeWhat Sarah (@WannaBeWhat) reported

    @hbomax Fabulous shows & films, I’d subscribe for Hacks alone! But the service is often extremely frustrating. FF & RW are nearly impossible, and of I’ve clicked OK once to be using offline streaming, why does the app repeatedly keep asking me to do so?!?!?! Please fix this issues!

  • VrushaliAuti Vrushali Auti (@VrushaliAuti) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, once broke the transaction system of a travel website as a sr. Dev on team. I was on probation & I was scared as the whole business went down for 1/2 an hour. But my CTO smiled and said "when u work on big modules, mistakes r also huge, it's the sign of growth "
