CoaCoalt (@Coalt81) reported@hbomaxhelp Hi, I am writing to report a persistent issue with the Max app on my Apple TV 4K. Despite having a Premium subscription, my video quality remains stuck at 720p, while I should be getting 4K UHD or 1080p.

Jason Ader (@TheJasinator) reportedHow to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand HBO Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

Milkias Samuel (@Milkias2025) reported@naijirou @JamesGunn @hbomax Look I want good character arcs from them too, & I don't necessarily hate the idea of Hal not willing to give up the ring, however my problem is that they seem to imply the rings successor to be chosen by the user when canonically it's the ring that's meant to choose a successor

Thomas Ingram (@ThomasIngr14149) reported@hbomax @HBO God. It's awful.

Jp *checkmark (@RealJPSquared) reported@hbomax if you can't competently stream live sports, give it to someone else. Choppy, audio goes out of sync... This is the worst garbage stream I've ever had to deal with.
-
Leah/Blood (@BloodyP9075) reportedAre all live sport streams on @hbomax terrible? I was excited to watch this @penguins game there being out of market, but the stream is so bad I couldn’t.

Dingus McKringus (@your_worm) reported@AEW @hbomax I just want my stupid $42.19. Please. I dont understand why this is such a hassle. I paid for a product that did not work. Times are too tough for me to just forget about 40 dollars. Can someone please help me out here? @TonyKhan ?

sam (@sam720396290005) reported@Sammycat41 @addievervale @hbomax subtitles are bad for me too. they’re always a few minutes ahead of whats actually happening on screen which is a shame. could just be a glitch for today because they just released it here? it might be better in a bit idk

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

Dingus McKringus (@your_worm) reportedOn March 15th I ordered @AEW REVOLUTION from @hbomax. The stream did NOT work that night. There are still posts on here confirming that. I paid 42.19. I had to purchase the stream from Amazon so I was out another 50 dollars. I asked for a refund that night. Because I purchased
-
Dr P (@pm_phd) reported@hbomaxhelp @MMoneyCarson Your app is super frustrating. It gets stuck at the ad break and loops without moving on. Restarting is not a great fix. It seems like a glitch at your end, how about posting something helpful about this instead of making customers troubleshoot?
-
Alt Mhor (@AltMhor) reported@hbomaxhelp I have tried to explain the issue to multiple customer service people and got nowhere. I missed all the games last night because of this. You're too late, subscription cancelled
-
Mr. T-1000 (@BubbaGimp79) reported@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. 🤬
-
George G (@GeorgeG92483038) reported@hbomaxhelp I can barely stream anything and watch it. Keep having to stop and start because the audio is not in sync with the video. Please fix this issue.

maligator (@kohoccm) reported@LGUS @hbomax Bought an LG stove Dec 2025 — broke within a week. 5 service visits, none fixed it. 4‑hour windows cost me work/pay. Escalations ignored, no callback. LG service is terrible — do your research before buying.
