    @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.

    @hbomaxhelp Three hours deep into a show to fix it is diabolical.

    @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.

    Dear @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?

    @hbomax @SportsonMax @Seahawks Has anyone else been cut off from their sports, previously on discovery, then mysteriously transferred to HBO max but can’t access sport? I’ve had terrible trouble getting this resolved, any ideas?

    @Sammycat41 @addievervale @hbomax subtitles are bad for me too. they’re always a few minutes ahead of whats actually happening on screen which is a shame. could just be a glitch for today because they just released it here? it might be better in a bit idk

    I’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

    Dammit, @hbomax … the finale of #DTFStLouis hurt my soul. Floyd Smernitch deserved so much better. 😭my tiny bird heart is broken.

    @hbomax @StreamOnMax Keep going with the woke BULLSHIT on The Pitt, and you’ll lose this viewer and the REST of our ED. Ridiculous. You have a solid, medically accurate (to a point) show, but yet EVERY week, some woke **** slips its way in the episode. This week? ICE And let me inform you if this- Not ONE of us working in a busy ED care if people are LEAVING the EMERGENCY WAITING ROOM for their NON EMERGENCY ISSUES. Jerkoffs.

    Hey @hbomaxhelp Subscribed to HBO Max to watch live March Madness and all I get is buffering. This is just the first four. Can't wait until I can't watch tomorrow when there are so many games streaming. Maybe fix this Take March Madness from me and I'll not forgive or forget.

    @hbomaxhelp I’m watching it on a laptop on my bed instead of the tv like normal I also missed the first 25 minutes as well, I’m just annoyed I have to jump threw hoops to get something i paid for to work properly

    @marykayfabe @hbomax @AEW It’s annoying because we have a Vizio TV that has the app, but for whatever reason, yo can’t watch the PPVs on Vizio. Never had an issue watching with the Xbox before. Very odd

    @hbomax the only thing your Harry Potter documentary should cover is how you didn’t have a budget for light bulbs. You have 6 months. Lighten the movie. It’s so dark the trailer looks awful. It’s giving everyone too dark game of thrones feeling. Shoot the show so we can see it.
