-
aurelia ☆ // 🎞️ (@peaksaturation) reported@addievervale @hbomax maybe a stupid question but are you logged in? it still says sign in/sign up in the corner. some websites are weird and after you sign up it doesn't automatically bring you into your account, you have to sign in separately. it makes no sense 😭 i can see all the eps on my acct!
-
Kenny Eckley (@Yamikeck) reported@hbomaxhelp i want a refund. i bought the aew ppv from your app and almost a hour and a half in it is still not working. I had to go to youtube and pay for it for a second time to be able to watch the ppv.
-
Cory Reetz (@Reetzy26) reported@hbomaxhelp Thanks for getting back to me. I would like my money back please since the issue was not mine but yours. Plus I purchased the PPV in another platform due to your technical issues.
-
ROC (@RoCraken) reported@hbomax literally worst interface ever. What am I paying for?
-
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.
-
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.
-
Brad Winchester (@WindDuster) reported@hbomaxhelp Three hours deep into a show to fix it is diabolical.
-
angie♡🇩🇴 (@willowroses) reported@hbomaxhelp YEAH I NEED HELP TO REINSTATE MY ACCOUNT

Chuck 🇺🇦 🌈 🏳️🌈 PLEASE, NO DM's (@1TibetanMastiff) reportedHey @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.

-
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?
-
RubenOnRodeo (@RubenOnRodeo) reported@aaronrift @hbomax Same here tried to get a refund told me I had to contact another company and that they couldn’t help me

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 😎

Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported@hbomax - Might be a new stream service here in the UK, but damn it's awful. Just watched Batman v Superman, and the quality was like bad dvd quality, and it changed aspect ratio...frequently. Never, ever had that in my life. 1 month sub, quit.
