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 (@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
-

-
juando82 (@juando82) reported@AEW @hbomax I paid money for a ppv and am unable to stream it. I've missed an hour of this so far. Been on hold for about 40 mins. Any help here???

Darthlord (@darthlord70160) reported@SeanRossSapp That’s false because I just tried it on my television and same issue! It’s just an @HBOMAX issue
-
TheTruBilliam43 (@TheTruBilliam43) reported@hbomaxhelp I been trying to watch the @AEW Revolution PPV on HBO MAX and between the audio issue and now the streaming issues. This is one of the worst purchases I ever got for a pay-per-view
-
carys (@addievervale) reported@hbomax what hell is your problem what made you think this was a good idea
-
Jason Lambert (@JasonLambert80) reported@hbomaxhelp @EyE_dIg_GrAvEs @hbomaxhelp what if we just want a refund do to the show not working on HBO max
-
“Marky” Mark K. Fabe ✡️ (@MarkyKFabe) reported@marykayfabe @hbomax @AEW It’s annoying because we have a Vizio TV that has the app, but for whatever reason, yo can’t watch the PPVs on Vizio. Never had an issue watching with the Xbox before. Very odd
-
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
-
Steveg561 (@SteveG561) reported@TonyKhan this deal you’ve made with HBO has made it impossible to watch your PPVs. @hbomax has the worst customer service I’ve ever seen in my life. Literally no help or assistance whatsoever to give me access to the PPV or to get my money back after waiting hours. This is bs.
-
star (@piningmygrove) reported@hbomax his legs are so long help
-
Myke (@DeQuan81) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I got the error and backed out and went back and it's been fine all night.
-

For a privilege a streaming privilege i mean i understand that it helps people that dont want to work and choose not to work sending they kids to school but I pay enough in city taxes for school **** and dont even have a kid so yeah
-
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.
-
✨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.
-
Rowdy Ralph (@IamRowdyRalph) reported@hbomax is terrible for watching basketball. The stream sucks.
-
JB (@JayBeasta) reportedThe HBO Max feed of AEW Revolution continues to have audio syncing issues nearly 45 minutes in, after Zero Hour was completely inaccessible. Meanwhile, Tony Khan has muted the replies to his live tweets... #AEWRevolution @hbomaxhelp
-
joe cooke (@JOECOOKE5) reported@hbomaxhelp I don’t believe it’s a technical issue. It’s just the crowd noise is louder than the announcers.
-
Annie (@annlau613) reported@hbomax Is this gonna be as crazy as Baby Reindeer because that show was like a car crash I couldn't look away from
-
Miku (@canthinkofaidea) reported@hbomax Fix the Aew stream wtf
-
the bourgeoisie (@fireboyandel) reported@hbomaxhelp @BuckedGooner Yall better have some overtime pay because EVERYONE is having problems. I’ll be keeping an eye out for my refund.
-
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.
-
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?
-
Fronkensteen (@Fronkensteen) reportedDammit, @hbomax … the finale of #DTFStLouis hurt my soul. Floyd Smernitch deserved so much better. 😭my tiny bird heart is broken.
