Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KasiJones Kasi, of The Shindellas, Jones (@KasiJones) reported

    Is @hbomax a social experiment? Does it just not work? Am I alone in this experience?

  • Rayge8281 Ray Jay Mahoney 🇬🇧 #ZSJL #Associateproducer (@Rayge8281) reported

    @hbomax It looks terrible!

  • SethBaker Seth Baker (@SethBaker) reported

    @homecourt321 @that_lefty_joe @HBOMaxHelp It's already illegal - and should be - to have unpaid interns doing substantive work. Now, an unpaid internship that's SHADOWING? Sure, that's fine. I guess. But not if the business gets ANY benefit. But the bottom line is this. You need a certain level of wealth to be able..

  • SethBaker Seth Baker (@SethBaker) reported

    @homecourt321 @that_lefty_joe @HBOMaxHelp ...to take weeks or months out of the labor market to work without getting paid in the hope that it will lead to something better. Poor students can't afford that. And it does put them behind. Not only is the entire system predatory, it's totally unjust.

  • thepaulstuart Paul Stuart (@thepaulstuart) reported

    @hbomax and @HBOMaxHelp I have to hard reset my Samsung TV every single time I want to open this app. Please update and fix!

  • gacbritt Brittany W. (@gacbritt) reported

    @jazmynneporter @hbomax Ugh! Mine has been fine for a while, BUT but there were a few times earlier this year where shows just would stop loading or buffer every few minutes to the point I couldn’t even finish it 😡

  • MorganicInk LaToya Morgan (@MorganicInk) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax Sorry, I was wrong about the brand but the problem remains. I use a fire stick (Amazon) remote. And when I try to rewind or fast forward it goes all the way back the beginning or all the way back to the end. It won’t move incrementally.

  • Chloe_Duene Chloe (@Chloe_Duene) reported

    @DimuthuSam @HBOMaxHelp OMG!! thought i was the only victim of this, like i got banned wrongly and I tried contacting their service but they always gave me a robot reply not until i got in contact with @hack.machine on instagram who got me back into my account he should help you

  • cnallard3164201 SHIBDragon316 (@cnallard3164201) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp you guys have left me high and dry for well over a week now. Haven't heard a thing from you about my streaming problems on my PS4 that began on 6/1 with that update push. I've been patient, but paying for service I'M STILL NOT GETTING is really f'd up

  • kade6767 Mitch ™Ⓜ️ (@kade6767) reported

    I can not believe someone hacked my @hbomax account. Their info is now in my app and I can’t sign in. So annoying. And HBO Max has like a 2hr wait time to talk to a rep. #HBOMax

  • Coach_LeeV Lee Verner (@Coach_LeeV) reported

    Hi @hbomax... I use your app on my ps4 almost everyday and I'm really sick of the "oops something went wrong" bullshit about every 20-30 minutes of watching a show or movie. I'd really like to know when you're going to fix that because I pay good money to use your app!

  • cnallard3164201 SHIBDragon316 (@cnallard3164201) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp wow @hbomax looks like you guys have a BIIIIIIIG PROBLEM HERE. all these people getting hacked. Think I'll cancel subscription at this rate since my streaming problems have continued ALL MONTH LONG

  • source_vera Oryu #SaveManifest (@source_vera) reported

    @leksasklownkru @TheCW @hbomax I sincerely think that if it weren't for all of his rights issues, Netflix would have saved #Manifest We always have to show our love for the show to hope for an end #SaveManifest

  • M_Yates_Az Oceans Seven ⚓🇺🇸 (@M_Yates_Az) reported

    I have terrible connectivity with @HBOMaxHelp It usually takes 3-4 times to connect, if it does, and will occasionally just kick me off. All other services work fine; #Netflix , #YouTube etc.

  • toribleil tori bleil (@toribleil) reported

    @hbomax So your gonna offer everyone free monthly service since you can’t seem to fix your HBOmax app on many platforms

  • skatykitchen canadian rock climber (@skatykitchen) reported

    @BettyHBO @hbomax help

  • can_we_rest_now Danielle (@can_we_rest_now) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp is there currently an issue with the app? I log in, click something to watch, and then it immediately takes me back to the log in page. Been happening since Friday on both of my smart TVs through the default Comcast app

  • SummerGermann SummerGermann (@SummerGermann) reported

    @hbomax Dear Intern, I work with children’s hospitals and doctors in the largest children’s hospital network. I sign every email: Kindly, Summer I didn’t realize spellcheck changed it when I hit send to an entire network. I’m now known as: Kinky, Summer @BraveGowns

  • matthewmcdougal Matthew McDougal (@matthewmcdougal) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp someone hacked my account and changed name and email. Now I can’t change my password. Please help.

  • Springforever3 🤗 (@Springforever3) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, I accidentally shredded the wrong box of important documents at work.

  • hype_simulator Hype Simulator (@hype_simulator) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear intern, once we accidentally removed weeks of work of our app, but this didn’t stop us. Later that app became #1 app worldwide.

  • _LauraHunter Laura Hunter Thomas (@_LauraHunter) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Dear Intern, In my first job out of college, I allowed the Apple Mac catalogue I was editing to go to print with "Maintosh" on the cover. I didn't get fired, and a year later I got promoted after fixing the process that led to the error. Good luck!

  • ontiveros_aj AJ Ontiveros (@ontiveros_aj) reported

    @wbpictures @hbomax Looks terrible

  • KSzoradi kim szoradi (@KSzoradi) reported

    @hbomax have you fixed to "oops " error that keeps popping up?

  • M_Yates_Az Oceans Seven ⚓🇺🇸 (@M_Yates_Az) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp No error message Usually the program doesn't load, just a black screen, sometimes with little rotating dots. Occasionally it'll start the program but not sync' d, so voice only or it skips. Less frequently I'm streaming and it just stops and it exits to the Roku menu.

  • Thexchris SaintChris (@Thexchris) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Thank you. The issue actually cleared up on its own so I didn’t have to try this.
