-
Tim (@Mayrit77) reported@bravo_joshuaaa @hbomax @StreamOnMax She makes the show terrible!!
-
Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported@hbomax Just a heads up: Using the app in the UK with adds, after adds appear the quality drops badly and you have to stop then restart. Also, the amount of adds in the first 10mins is brutal. Hardly enjoyable.
-
coach mack (@onceugomack) reported@hbomaxhelp audio keeps cutting out on the March madness games. No need to respond just fix it
-
Black Bruce Wayne (@GodsGift2uWomen) reported@hbomaxhelp @aylissar Same here! I need help
-
Matt (@GardenCenobite) reportedI really hope that if they're going to be buying @hbomax which is an app that actually works on smart tvs, that @paramountplus will revamp their app, which is the worst app on the planet. Literally only app we have issues with constantly for no reason.
-
Bobby White (@BobbyWh00604827) reported@the1bar23 @hbomaxhelp Did you get this fixed? I was just about to buy it but stopped just to see if anyone was having issues
-
Mr Danny (@spinningoutaday) reported@andyjd747 @hbomax It’s effectively a downgrade. We had UHD and Ad Skip on our Stream package but now shows we previously could watch are only on HBO Max in awful quality with ads.
-
Kimi Martinez #JB17 🩵 (@KimiMtz17) reported@JayBeasta @hbomaxhelp Maybe because it's not his problem, but HBO Max's??
-
maligator (@kohoccm) reported@LGUS @hbomax Bought an LG stove Dec 2025 — broke within a week. 5 service visits, none fixed it. 4‑hour windows cost me work/pay. Escalations ignored, no callback. LG service is terrible — do your research before buying.

fer (@hudclaire) reported@hbomax get to ******* work
-
✨VANILLA SC👀PER ✨💮 (@VanillaScooper) reported@hbomaxhelp @AEW @hbomax Yeah, you’re welcome for my $40. Show was unwatchable and the fact you responded to my post 5 hours into the issue is insane for 2026.
-
Kevin Sicard (@KevinSicard) reported@hbomaxhelp #aewrevolution audio is terrible and ruining the show
-
EllyButt 🏴🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@WotBuwcheeks) reported@hbomax has awful coverage for the football, why the hell did @footballontnt move there?
-
Steveg561 (@SteveG561) reported@hbomax been trying to contact customer service for over an hour your AEW Revolution stream doesn’t work I want my ******* money back!!!!!
-
sam/benny | #justiceforsamira (@bennyandthetops) reported@hbomax i'd rather have samira mohan back than men making women uncomfortable while they're at work
-
moze (@moze) reportedThis is like a true CM punk weekend. Terrible stuff popping off to distract from fun events. Is anyone actually wrestling or is it just hot takes and outrage. Holy ****. Is #aewcollision on tonight. That would fun. Might be time to got #aew archives on @hbomax
-
NICK Hudson (@MCConditioner) reported@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
-
hayley (@bruisedhoney) reported@addievervale @hbomax sign in first babe
-
Gerald Preston (@Ger_Pres) reportedFFS, how hard is it for @tntsports to tell people what to do with the new @hbomax app? Do we open a new account with HBO Max? Do we login to HBO with our existing TNT username/password? Come on, throw us a bone here.
-
steph (@WestonFollower) reported@hbomax if he doesn’t leave these women alone to work… speaking of work bring back samira mohan to clock into season 3🌟

-
Sir Clapton Terrier (@claptonterrier) reported@smiffytheBT @hbomax We have only done on iBone so far Uncle and had no issues at all 🤷
-
Matt Smith (@msmith850) reportedDon’t forget, today is @hbomax day. Download, sign in/up, stream @tntsports and loads more 🎥 📺
-
Josh Hayes (@perpetual_hayes) reported@hbomaxhelp The audio for #AEWRevolution has never synced up with the video. The problem seems to have been there since the main show started after the Zero Hour pre-show. I’ve tried exiting the app and restarting the show a few times, fast-forwarding, pausing, etc.
-
linds (@bluth_lindsay) reported@msmooonny @hbomax 😭😭😭😭😭 it’s not even about the episodes it’s about supriya ganesh leaving 😞 but dr mohan really has been given the worst treatment this season idk it’s a mess all around
