    @hbomaxhelp Been in an email loop with support doing the same troubleshooting steps repeatedly. Issue: Friends degrades in picture quality after ~15-20 min, every time, only that show. App updated, reinstalled, TV restarted — multiple times. Need actual escalation.

    @searchpartymax @hbomax Getting through the last season is painful. It's awful. But you've had me on the hook for so long, what choice do I have?

    @hbomax Great job you ******* retards, your god damn Google TV app is completely god damn broken. Takes me immediately to a screen to add an avatar and then just spins for minutes on end with no ability to get ******** out of that bullshit. *********** fuckstains.

    @hbomax we know Voldemort must be a woman,as you haven't showed him. This will make this series bomb. If a guy, you would have shown him already. Wasted hundreds of millions on therapy. Hahaha Cant wait for the @YouTube content because of this awful choice

    @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?

    @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.

    While @JioHotstar @hotstar_helps makes news about bringing @hbomax to India, they continue to block premium users accounts every single day for 24 hours at a time. Utterly and completely useless. It has been 3 weeks my father is continuously harassed by this with no help.

    Dear @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?

    @leeqman93 @GameOfThrones @hbomax In the Dance of the Dragons, the Blacks win the war. Rhaenyra’s son Aegon III takes the Iron Throne after Aegon II is killed. The realm is left broken, but her line rules.

    @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?

    @JamesGunn @hbomax What do you mean “only one”??? That’s not how the rings work…

    @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

    @hbomaxhelp Streaming issues with your coverage of NCAA men's tournament. Live stream breaks to a commercial then the pictures freezes after the commercial ends. Sat there for a couple minutes the first time this happened, then backed out and restarted. 4 times today!!

    You know @hbomax — your sign in is straight garbage No reason to log out, no reason for several email entries and 3FA? Crap service. Ruined the hockey game for us

    @hbomaxhelp I don’t believe it’s a technical issue. It’s just the crowd noise is louder than the announcers.
