    @hbomax your app is god-awful. Kicks me out repeatedly, says there's no wifi when I'm sitting next to my router and 2 other devices work perfectly, slow to load screens, clunky UX...just bad all the way around

  • sethsmithart Seth Monster (@sethsmithart) reported

  • ps536263 ps536263 (@ps536263) reported

    @hbomax just wanted to let you know that you are the worst. Trying for half an hour to give you money to watch a Sopranos movie. You can take the money, you can’t show the movie. Can’t cancel this fast enough. Hope the rest of your night sucks.

  • sethsmithart Seth Monster (@sethsmithart) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp help...!

  • Fsouza541 Felipe Souza (@Fsouza541) reported

    @hbomax Hi there HBO Max Brazil recognized a mistake that they made on my account, but they keep charging me a price that is 50% higher than the one they should. I've called them 3x and nothing. Can you help me with that? I have all the protocols that could prove my point.

  • famekid Damani Pompey (@famekid) reported

    finishing the Gwen Shamblin documentary on @hbomax and once again, it goes to show, Karma is real. Even if good intentions turn sinister, be prepared for what shall come… this isn’t the worst of it though. However, “whiteness” in its performative centered-ness, hurts many.

  • MatthewStidman Matthew Stidman (@MatthewStidman) reported

    @hbomax fix your busted app on the Xbox one please

  • LeslieStreeter Leslie Streeter (@LeslieStreeter) reported

    I had not envisioned a Saturday night spent trying to get my @hbomax to work with a now 1.5 call with what is currently three chat/voice agents on @Xfinity but then it gives me something else angsty to write about.

  • Literatrix Angela St Lawrence (@Literatrix) reported

    .@hbomax Fix your sound issue. I love you to pieces, but the sound is too low. I've checked with others, so I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

  • Ryan_Nehring Ryan Nehring (@Ryan_Nehring) reported

    Man @hbomax has both my favorite content and my LEAST favorite app/website. I don’t know if it’s the servers or the code or what, but it’s inexcusably slow and gets hung up all the time across devices and connection types. It’s bad.

  • TomKotsos TPK (@TomKotsos) reported

    @wbpictures @hbomax Just terrible film so sad

  • quest4truthh Leo (@quest4truthh) reported

    @LGUS @hbomax Pray that u don’t get a defected item straightoutthebox . The WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! Since May I been chasing them,telling my story over and over ,I been hung up on,promised lies ,no one returns your callsNOTEVEN SUPERVISORS My refund was approved months but no1 follows up

  • LightworkPhoto Lightwork Photo (@LightworkPhoto) reported

    @succession @hbomax It’s REALLY tone deaf to desecrate Gil Scot Heron’s song in this way…to promote a show about terrible people with far too much money.

  • gabenrubin Gabe Rubin (@gabenrubin) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I do. Why is that the case and are there plans to fix it? Atmos was working for a while and now it’s not. Seems like an easy fix??

  • gabenrubin Gabe Rubin (@gabenrubin) reported

    . @hbomax why did you kill Atmos for chromecast googletv? I could swear it used to work.

  • ohmypixiedust (@ohmypixiedust) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp (1/4)Hi I’m an aussie & my issue isn’t related to your streaming service but I was unsure how to get in contact with HBO directly from outside the US so I came here. My issue is related to the show White Lotus which I purchased from the Windows Store. Every episode..

  • Trioxide7789 Charlie Patton (@Trioxide7789) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp the subtitles are broken. They are consistently appearing 15 seconds before each line of dialog is spoken. This is making HBO Max completely unusable to me. Please fix this.

  • astrokeat Keaton Bell (@astrokeat) reported

    Practically every movie I watch on @hbomax on my Roku TV freezes halfway through, then crashes the whole TV system. I understand it to be a known issue that has not been fixed for many months.

  • wisby22 Corrie (@wisby22) reported

    It should be a rule if your going to have part II of a movie available to stream, that you, at the very least, have all previous movies available also. Seems wrong having Neverending Story II and not Neverending Story. I believe this to be a glitch. Can you amend? 🍿 @HBOMaxHelp

  • sxvxnnxh_diorr savannah (@sxvxnnxh_diorr) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp me and my friend have both been having an issue with our hbo max. we open the app on roku tv and all the titles come up but when we try and ply something it asks us to chose a plan or restore purchases, when you click restore purchases it also says unable to restore.

  • THEdorman13 Alfred Natural. you can call me Al (@THEdorman13) reported

    @hbomax yooo why does my account not work anymore. I pay my bill

  • JonEverclear DogeJon (@JonEverclear) reported

    I pay way too much ******* money for an app that doesn’t work 90% of the time @hbomax

  • pdubs18 Peter Wilkinson (@pdubs18) reported

    Accidentally reset my @Samsung TV when tryouts to fix the finicky @hbomax app. So there went a couple hours getting it all set up again.

  • ActionMelt ⚡franCAINstein ⚡🎃 (@ActionMelt) reported

    @CariCGA @hbomax Have you seen Ghosts? It's a BBC comedy streaming on HBO Max. If you do ever get the app to work you should check it out if it seems like something you'd like.

  • johnnyjuicebox1 Young DeNiro (@johnnyjuicebox1) reported

    Of course on the same day @hbomax charges my bank account, it’s also the last day Malignant is available to watch (which I learned about today). I sign in to finally and boom it says I don’t have a subscription? I’m confused. @HBOMaxHelp

  • ForeverKeles K (@ForeverKeles) reported

    Please issue me a refund @hbomax. Y’all lost y’all’s rabbid *** minds putting ads in the MIDDLE of a movie.

  • divinia1111 Denise Ferguson (@divinia1111) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Just wanted to let you know I have never had an issue with streaming HBO MAX. Never! I stream through Roku.

  • crimsonology5 Ajia Meux🔺 (@crimsonology5) reported

    Hey @hbomax. Hire me to design the front face of your streaming platform. I was a HUUUUGE HBO fan before this transition. It’s not very user friendly and I don’t bother much with it anymore cuz it’s terrible.

  • Shawnwin Shawn Stoddart (@Shawnwin) reported

    @hbomax what is the point of downloading a movie if I’m getting an error message when I try to watch it offline. Isn’t that what downloading is supposed to do??? Why am I getting an error message “we’re having trouble playing this video”
