    @hbomaxhelp @phillyb949 I need help please. My account was taken over and i was being helped through email. Case No. 30616400.

    She knew what he was capable of. She asked for help. She tried to stop it. But without a crime, no one would intervene. And she was left waiting, knowing something terrible might happen. Watch “Evil Lives Here: My Child The Killer” Tuesday on ID and stream on @HBOMax. #EvilLivesHere

    @Caseybloys @hbomaxhelp @hbomax Im looking for help regarding an account takeover. Case #30616400. I'm clearly being punked through email with hbo help. It's such an obvious, easy fix, that it seems ridiculous that Id have to go through financial institutions and legal channels.

    @GameOfThrones @hbomax Aegon wants to kill Aemond. Damn your work. That shield/armor of Aemond is bad—like a girl convinced him to wear it. No appearance from Daeron, and he has black hair

    @hbomax why is streaming so glitchy? Just watching a show it freezes up after every commercial, I have to fast forward to get it to play again. Playback isn’t smooth, buffers regularly and other streaming services works fine so it isn’t my internet. Help!

    @HBO @hbomax Your customer service sucks. Your sign in procedure sucks. What a disgrace.

    @dearone6 @lushmylife613 @hbomax She says that, but they've been basically broke for a while now as she told her friend that he was "nickeling and diming her." In the end her biggest issue was that everything was built on a lie. She has no problem pitching in, she even said that. But Nate wanted to be the man.

    @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. 🤬

    This 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

    @JamesGunn @hbomax Oh no, not the immediate marketing pivot. “Only one can wear the ring”… picks up any single issue of green lantern “oh wait I guess that doesn’t make sense at all”.

    @leeqman93 @GameOfThrones @hbomax In the Dance of the Dragons, the Blacks win the war. Rhaenyra’s son Aegon III takes the Iron Throne after Aegon II is killed. The realm is left broken, but her line rules.

    @hbomax Can yall fix the glitch with your app? It’ll play an ad and start it at an earlier part of the movie. Then you’ll have to fast forward it just to get to the ad you were originally at and have to watch it again. Been this way for months.

    @hbomax stream freezes anytime I’m watching a live show immediately when it goes to commercials. Need to exit and watch live to fix it. This on a Fire TV product.
