thinksojoe (@thinksojoe) reportedI've been a fan of this dude since he was Prince Puma, and had been enjoying his work in AEW, but I have seen first-hand how badly MS can affect someone, and have helped raise money for MS charities. @TonyKhan I hope you know I'm turning off @hbomax whenever he's on.

Alfred (@ADlDAS5150) reported@hbomax why is audio description on on the new season of primal why doesn’t it let us turn off? Can you please fix this f’n thing?
-
Sdot 😵💫 (@The_StevenHo) reported@hbomaxhelp @AEWonTV @StreamOnMax There was no make good and watching the show live was impossible. Almost as impossible as getting to talk to a real human instead of the chat bot on your help page.
-
Frank Castle (@MrSpacely313) reportedI’m done with @hbomax. Service doesn’t work then when I contact them for a refund they tell me they don’t do refunds. Real great business practices. #AEWRevolution
-
Spencer (@CatDadCards) reported@USMNT @hbomax You know how Hard Knocks picks awful teams that implode like the JY jets?
-
mark mcneilly (@mcneilly_mark) reported@hbomax I was hoping that the video quality of your sport stream on TNT would improve now you are in charge. Why is the image quality so bad compared to Sky and Amazon Prime? I am paying a lot for HBOmax with TNT sport and the image quality on TNT is rubbish compared to others
-
Tommy (@roidrage11) reported@hbomaxhelp @stabbinfresh No help
-
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?
-
Kenny Pordon (@KennyPordon) reported@aaronrift @hbomax I had a lot of problems with authenticating devices as well. My TV was the last that worked. Ruined opening match for me. PPVs looks amazing in Dolby Vision, so I'll stick with it. I'd make Dynasty $19.99 for subscribers and purchasers of Revolution. Make it right.
-
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.
-
Chris Irving (@MushroomChris) reported@EE @tntsports @hbomax I currently have my TNT sports subscription through EE but when I use my discovery + login on the HBOMax app it says I do not have any subscriptions. How do I get this resolved?
-
Frank (@t3hfrankie) reported@hbomaxhelp @DatMane2k Can't watch AEW Revolution 2026 replay on HBO MAX. Its just a black screen with loading circle. Tried 5 times and can watch other stuff on Max just fine. I paid for PPV, so plz fix
-
Darthlord (@darthlord70160) reported@patrizated @SeanRossSapp @hbomax You must be one of the lucky ones all I’m getting on my android tv is a loading symbol and on my Amazon fire cube 30 seconds behind on audio looks like I’m putting up with the audio issue
-
Virtual Photographer...sometimes (@mangAman_vp) reported@hbomax Just a heads up: Using the app in the UK with adds, after adds appear the quality drops badly and you have to stop then restart. Also, the amount of adds in the first 10mins is brutal. Hardly enjoyable.
-
OLDSCHOOL 2.0 (@OldSchool2pt0) reported@hbomaxhelp @JdotChilds The sound during the commercials is just awful. Streaming HBO Max March Madness games. Please change the commercial, it has a very annoying sound.
-

-
Rajiv (@TheRajiv8) reportedI hade to request a refund from @Apple for the **** show that is @hbomax showing #AEWRevolution just bought it on YouTube and it’s working beautifully there. @hbomaxhelp get it together and hopefully Apple approves the refund because of how terrible the experience was on your app
-
Investigation Discovery (@DiscoveryID) reportedShe 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
-
Shane Richardson (@IEShane909) reported@hbomax fix your audio on the AEW PPV
-
Rowdy Ralph (@IamRowdyRalph) reported@hbomax is terrible for watching basketball. The stream sucks.
-
Brian Roach (@bwroach) reportedDoes anybody else's @hbomax app shut off after 2 episodes of a program? For the past 3 days, everytime after 2 episodes of a show HBOMax says "error no internet connection" even though I still have a high internet connection. What's wrong with the @hbomax app on @xbox?
