Mr. T-1000 (@BubbaGimp79) reported@hbomax This is complete BS. Why can't I just sign in with my provider like I used to be able to. I lost all of my settings because of it. 🤬
-
EllyButt 🏴🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@WotBuwcheeks) reported@hbomax has awful coverage for the football, why the hell did @footballontnt move there?
-
Jason Ader (@TheJasinator) reportedHow to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand HBO Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

Jimmy Midyette 🇺🇸 (@JimmyMidyette) reported@JeremyH418 @hbomax @jk_rowling I doubt it seriously. Between the wokesters who will actively cancel their HBO accounts over it and the distressingly large swath of people freaking out about Snape’s skin color, I suspect it will have trouble finding a big audience.

Andrew (@Coneandonly_) reportedHey @hbomax your audio issues is making it hard to enjoy this show 100% @AEW #AEWRevolution think I deserve a refund @TonyKhan
-
✨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.
-
Alt Mhor (@AltMhor) reported@hbomaxhelp I have tried to explain the issue to multiple customer service people and got nowhere. I missed all the games last night because of this. You're too late, subscription cancelled
-
Deez (@EvolDeez) reported@hbomax You just couldn't help yourself You just couldn't keep yourselves from ruining it Next time, take a dozen nurses from PITTSBURGH instead of a dozen nurses from LA Keep your west coast BS out of it You just insulted and misrepresented the entire city
-
🇺🇸HairForceOne🇺🇸 (@47ShadesOfMaga) reported@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.

A B (@Crazyglue101) reported@hbomaxhelp How do I get a refund for AEW revolution the purchase did not work at all
-
T.C. (@bestbatmachine) reported@hbomaxhelp @hbomax The PPV stream would not work on my LG smart TV. It did work on my phone, but I'm not watching on a tiny screen. Any help would be appreciated
-
Michael Shilling (@MikeShilling) reported@hbomaxhelp I'm not doing a chat bot when it's your audio engineers not doing their jobs. Announce team to 90ish percent to overmod, the crowd should be 70ish % of that and the ring mic should be 40ish % of the crowd. Problem solved.
-
Gabe (@TheGWK21) reported@aaronrift @hbomax Didn’t work for me either I had to just order it through cable and now I have to try and get a refund
-

Coach Alpha Dawg Greg (@CoachDawg34) reported@Serious_Falcon @hbomax i see you missed the part where the vampire told him the bible verses don’t work that’s when he realized church couldn’t save him either only God can and wanted him to carve his own path
-
Cory (@trumarvel) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I requested a refund from Apple and ordered on my traditional PPV. HBO Max has so many issues every PPV it feels like. I’ve never had a perfect experience
-
Brandon Halloway (@BrandonHalloway) reported@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.
-
David Ibe (@cyberibe) reported@hbomaxhelp Streaming issues with your coverage of NCAA men's tournament. Live stream breaks to a commercial then the pictures freezes after the commercial ends. Sat there for a couple minutes the first time this happened, then backed out and restarted. 4 times today!!
-
That Deanie Girl (@deaniejoooo) reportedIs anyone else having issues trying to purchase #AEWDynasty on @hbomax ?? I have tried 3 different times and keep getting an error.
-
Synchronicity (@74Synchronicity) reportedDear @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?
-
Gary Bibby (@garybibby) reported@NOWTV your trailer about @hbomax coming together has a spoiler from Heated Rivalry in it, please fix that.
-
mikegb (@mikegb) reported@hulu @hbomax @DisneyPlus trying to give you money right now and seeing constant errors. Really f'n frustrating when I can't see the end of this basketball game.

zack (@GLLGHR301) reported@hbomax @aaronrift Hi, I had this issue last night too with my PPV, but the customer service chatbot kept putting me in a loop and I never got resolution.
-
Fronkensteen (@Fronkensteen) reportedDammit, @hbomax … the finale of #DTFStLouis hurt my soul. Floyd Smernitch deserved so much better. 😭my tiny bird heart is broken.
