  • DrKickstand Dank Sinatra (@DrKickstand) reported

    @producerdoom @hbomax Yes. I’ve had hbomax for over a year and have issues with it weekly. Now it just isn’t working at all and hasn’t for two days.

  • oriateka ʘɾᎥɑ ۩ ᏫᏒᎥᎯ (en 🏠) 💉💉 (@oriateka) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @HBOMaxSoporte Hi MB. Your new app doesn't connect the Chromecast most of the times. It doesn't happen with other apps so it's not my device and it's very annoying try from Home or screencast from my mobile to force your app to work. Please, inform your developers.

  • ChrisIndy20 fantasma💀 (@ChrisIndy20) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax It wasn’t *just his fault* sure. The whole team basically stunk. But who even cares ab that anymore lol at this point the issue with Ben goes so much deeper

  • whayanameis FILTHY MILKMAID 🥛 (@whayanameis) reported from Moon, Pennsylvania

    @HBOMaxHelp I’m unable to make downloads, sometimes the downloads I have already don’t play or an error message comes on.

  • joyfulsojournr Joyful Sojourner ~ “Disembodied lady soul/Jezebel” (@joyfulsojournr) reported

    Are @hulu & @hbomax competing for worst streaming service? IYKYK

  • sona__gevorgian Sona (@sona__gevorgian) reported

    @ghettogospeII @HBO @hbomax I know the problem i guess..his hands okey but when his hands reach to his like Tshirt (and they photoshop it) some technology problems happens and we see it ..They Just Should not touch t-shirt

  • Likeabite Nana Boateng (@Likeabite) reported

    A thread of all the gripes I have with the various streaming services and apps out there: 1. @HBO not keeping Crunchyroll and adding it to its @hbomax arsenal is one of the worst moves ever. It would have infused the platform so much. Instead we only get like 100 shows, come on!

  • WalterWhiteHHT HEIS∃NB∃RG🎄🎁 (@WalterWhiteHHT) reported

    @HBO @hbomax Fix Ems shirt

  • 2faceskrew 2faceskrew (@2faceskrew) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax Here we go. At the end of the day you can't act like a baby in your work field. To get ppl off your back you gotta do your job. Game 7 is in the past so what is he doing now?????

  • saladpepe saladpepe (@saladpepe) reported

    @hbomax is the absolute worst streaming app out of them all. 90% of their customers (including me) have a barely functioning app that is constantly being ignored even though every forum hbo max related is flooded with customers unable to use their service.

  • c_cburn Cburn (@c_cburn) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Lol troubleshooting 101 done that already. The app just doesn't work 1/2 the time. Only app that doesn't work on my android TV. ONLY ONE!

  • sue_anne Sue Anne Reed (@sue_anne) reported

    I wish @HBO / @hbomax would fix the ending credits on Episode 3 of Band of Brothers. It is ridiculous that the credits still say that Albert Blithe died in 1948 instead of 1967.

  • DrKickstand Dank Sinatra (@DrKickstand) reported

    @goddess_g_g @hbomax @discoveryplus Hbomax is hands down the worst app I have. No contest.

  • spencerolivia_ cast william jackson harper on everthing (@spencerolivia_) reported

    @SamFoxenBoyd @hbomax @RachelleRW My first thing after work tomorrow

  • WriterComicNYer Greg Manuel (He/Him) (@WriterComicNYer) reported

    @bauzilla @hbomax @WB_Animation Or he could be the baccarat dealer in a scene out of James Bond. To really illustrate that the problem/ joke all along was always "OH NO, A SKUNK - AAAHHH!" and wash off some of the uh...stink that has landed on him of late.

  • ghettogospeII Kat (@ghettogospeII) reported

    @T_bear71 @HBO @hbomax They need to fix this 😭

  • jamesfregia James Fregia (free•j) (@jamesfregia) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Unfortunately didn’t work. Still happening.

  • bebe_singleton Bebe LaMonica (@bebe_singleton) reported

    @hulu and @hbomax must be developed by the same folks or something. Both platforms are probably the worst at streaming. It’s shameful bc we pay a monthly subscription. Y’all bout to make me go back to cable. Damn!

  • AiXeLsyD13 Dank Farrik (@AiXeLsyD13) reported from Bridgeville, Pennsylvania

    Watching @CWBatwoman on @hbomax and season 2 is starting out wild. Read all about the #RubyRose exit and now not even sure if I should even continue watching. Just when I am invested in the character, I learn that rhe producers were terrible people?

  • chase55cole Chase Cole (@chase55cole) reported

    @hbomax y’all service support gonna help anyone? No ? I hope you all@get aids

  • Process___That Embiid the Dream (@Process___That) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax Dwight. He still isn’t here. And he isn’t even cooperating with whatever “mental issues” he has. It’s abandonment. Stop.

  • fearless_key Fearless😈 (@fearless_key) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax He keeps trying to defend ben. I get it, everybody played a role tobias had a game with only 4 points too. The problem is ben was scared. He didn’t even try. That’s all we are upset about and it’s not just about that 1 series it’s been his whole career

  • JimSchmidt64 Jim Schmidt (@JimSchmidt64) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp FIX THE APP. This has been broken for over a year. That's the solution. I've already canceled.

  • TCLTurbo Turbo (@TCLTurbo) reported

    @Greg_Weisman @hbomax This is crash!

  • Snyphe DayOneWarriorsFan (9-1) (@Snyphe) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax Exactly what I’ve been saying since. **** RIVERS IS THE PROBLEM !

  • the_jp0323 Joel Rivera (@the_jp0323) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp hello my HBO max app on my PS4 is not working. When I go to play something it exits out of it and onto the Home Screen.

  • keepitrealist81 Berg81 (@keepitrealist81) reported

    @BleacherReport @DwightHoward @hbomax Dwight was lazy and didn’t work on his game, Ben ultimately is doing the same. So no surprises here

  • glockkcoma k, (@glockkcoma) reported

    @gossipgirl @hbomax outside of the conventionally attractive cast n fashion this show is terrible. i’ll be tuned in xoxo

  • AmandaRich45 AmandaRichmond (@AmandaRich45) reported

    @ghettogospeII @HBO @hbomax Oh god. That is awful
