    @hbomax I've ignored the months of the apps not working properly on ps4, but I cannot ignore the fact that nobody has made any attempt to fix this situation with my account THAT HAS BEEN PAID FOR. I am not going to be wasting my money with you all again.

  • jaceanna Ja'Ceanna Guillory (@jaceanna) reported

    @fsanders @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp I’m having this issue right now too!! Trying to watch Rush Hour 2 and the audio is off. We’ve tried everything. Trying to watch from a Samsung tv.

  • WirSindKorrupt Wir Sind Korrupt (@WirSindKorrupt) reported

    @hbomax is quite possibly the worst streaming service by far. They don't even give an f$ck that it doesn't work.

  • Kocoshanel S M (@Kocoshanel) reported

    @hbomax I want my money back since you all can't be bothered to try to actually help instead of giving me the runaround.

  • adlr92 💉 Pfizer Sozé 💉 (@adlr92) reported

    @hbomax PLEASE FIX YOUR APPS! They always say “Oops! Something went wrong!” Well fix whatever is wrong, man.

  • Aaliyah2095 Aaliyah (@Aaliyah2095) reported

    @TheMark318 @hbomax My account got same similar issue.. i contacted support services but they wouldn’t help me...I got referred to @logskind2 on Instagram and they were so helpful and reliable. Am sure they can help you

  • Kozhiii Alex Kozhokin (@Kozhiii) reported

    @hbomax Rush Hour 2 audio isn’t matched up with the video… can you guys fix this .. I’ve been trying to watch this movie for days now.

  • TheMark318 Mark (@TheMark318) reported

    @hbomax can I get some help logging into my account? I can’t receive a password reset email and my password has been changed

  • BigHeadTales Bighead Tales (@BigHeadTales) reported

    @DCTitans @hbomax This looks great! Too bad HBO doesn’t work on Samsung anymore.

  • KyleinCLT kyle (@KyleinCLT) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Still doesn’t work. Only this English dubbed version available.

  • ariherzog Ari Herzog (@ariherzog) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp The audio issue was only with that movie. I don't need help. Just letting YOU know. Searching Twitter history, I'm hardly alone.

  • ChillyPhilly915 LGM915 (@ChillyPhilly915) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @eyesjustsaying The whole app is crap. Trying to watch a series in it is terrible

  • brianbabey Brian Babey (@brianbabey) reported

    @hbomax Still can't play Gomorrah Season 4 with original Italian audio and English subtitles. Using Roku TV, S4 only has dubbed English. Help!

  • jaceanna Ja'Ceanna Guillory (@jaceanna) reported

    @fsanders @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp I’m having this issue right now too!! Trying to watch Rush Hour 2 and the audio is off. We’ve tried everything.

  • megz3pegz Megan Smith (@megz3pegz) reported

    @hbomax's version of "are you still watching?" Is "oops were having a problem" which I guess is better in the sense I don't feel shamed for watching tv all day.

  • AveryKovarik john avery kovarik (@AveryKovarik) reported

    @hbomax is the worst app ever.

  • MikeMcCabeSad Michael McCabe, your close friend. (@MikeMcCabeSad) reported

    .@HBOMaxHelp I updated the app and now it doesn’t work good. Big goof up

  • cozyjayzsn Jay 🦋 (@cozyjayzsn) reported

    @hbomax fix y’all app wtf

  • etansteg etansteg (@etansteg) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Trying to watch the new season of looney tunes cartoons on my xbox. There seems to be an audio issue as I can hear the music, but when the character’s mouths move nothing comes out

  • Halo2Guy Halo2Guy (@Halo2Guy) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Xbox, apparently it's an issue via Google search

  • Tyrant0125 Rob Butler (@Tyrant0125) reported

    @hbomax get you stuff together man! Every twenty minutes the app says whoops there's been a problem and gives some big *** code and makes me restart the damn app. This has been going on for like two months now. I'm about to just cancel it but I really like the programming.

  • _MooreAngelic A (@_MooreAngelic) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Did all that and it still don’t work

  • SarahAnnCagno Sarah Ann Cagno (@SarahAnnCagno) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I have now tried performing all of these steps, and the problem hasn’t been fixed. Any show or movie that immediately opens with an ad freezes. I’ve been able to watch Betty and the first episode of Hacks...that’s it.

  • BrandXJon Jon Schiefer (@BrandXJon) reported

    I was perusing my @hbomax queue last night and I saw BLACKHAT. It taken me a few years to be able to watch it because ALGORITHM came out right before it and BLACKHAT got all the press so I was angry. It's not Michael Mann's best, but it's not his worst either.

  • chica_2626 Rachel (@chica_2626) reported

    @SamsungSupport @HBOMaxHelp when will the HBO Max app be fixed for Samsung Smart TVs? Y'all just gonna steal people's money or just wait for people to cancel their subscriptions instead? The app can't be updated and won't play if it's not updated aka it doesn't work at all

  • ScottSparr 0tt3r (@ScottSparr) reported

    @Roku @hbomax cancelling my HBO max subscription because I’m tired of your faulty Roku app. It’s been months, and customer service is no help.

  • acl70 Drew (@acl70) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @NireeMusic Apple TV. Whenever I fast forward or rewind, it won’t stop when I press Play. Just keeps FF or Rewinding. The app is unusable beyond “pause”and “play”.

  • YaBoiHanad Hanad (@YaBoiHanad) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m still having the problem

  • ShadelleG S. MBA, M.S. ♔ (@ShadelleG) reported

    I hate that @hbomax only works on my phone and iPad, but not the tv app. I thought Hulu UX was terrible; but at least the content eventually loads. Depending on how good Gossip Girl is, im on the verge of ending my subscription.🤨

  • bmisunderstood_ Money Makin Marti (@bmisunderstood_) reported from Detroit, Michigan

    I’ve been trying to watch 1 movie on @hbomax since Friday with no success due to streaming issue.. wtf get it together before @insecurehbo comes back on
