    @HBOMaxHelp I keep getting Playback Error When trying to watch GOT. I can watch other HBOMAX movies and series ok

  • SlytherBas Bas (@SlytherBas) reported

    @GeekintheCity @TaikaWaititi @hbomax That show genuinely caught me off guard. I wasn't sold by the first couple episodes, but by the end I was very invested. Some very high quality fuckery there.

  • n_opah anc 🌻 (@n_opah) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp Why do you have hours listed until 20:00/18:00 for help chat & call when neither is currently available? I’ve been back & forth all wknd via email about a billing issue. They’ve been NO HELP.

  • Heygirlfield Hey Girl Field Hey (@Heygirlfield) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Thanks! Looks like it was a Google interface problem. Once it was reset, it worked!

  • AtlantisFell Mutant Sovereignty (@AtlantisFell) reported

    Why does @hbomax eat so much data. I wouldn't care if the quality didn't become blurry the second it's not using high-speed data. Other streaming services are clear quality on regular speed. Just some food for thought on future updates.

    @Reflog_18 @Lions @hbomax No dude is terrible

  • Cloella Chloe Gale (@Cloella) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I'd really like to sign up to the offer before the 31st March, if I'm not able to due to tech issues and I've repeatedly asked for help, it's really not fair.

  • Sathish89383700 Sathish Kumar (@Sathish89383700) reported

    @hbomax Because of your greedy The Batman is not going to make very amount in box office. As nolan said worst streaming service ever.

  • Alwyz_Bandit Bandit 🇨🇦 (@Alwyz_Bandit) reported

    @adudesnerdery @DCTitans @hbomax It's a hard watch honestly, season 1 was okay, season 2 is awful and season 3 is only slightly better.

  • 0urflagmeansgay ▪️hector▪️ 🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈❤️ ofmd (@0urflagmeansgay) reported

    @david_jenkins__ @hbomax @david_jenkins__ when they swapped clothes, did Ed have to help Stede into them because his wound was still bad?

  • KaminskiRyan Ry (@KaminskiRyan) reported

    @farrere21 @Lions @hbomax Neither do we, take his contract. Help a brother out

  • DuckingOak la beef (@DuckingOak) reported from Ashland, California

    @CodeineFridge @hbomax fix this ****

  • D3Franc0 Love, Alex (@D3Franc0) reported

    After fumbling around for 45 mins with @hbomax on my tv trying to get it to work & not buffer while watching Dune, I had to just play through Air Play and it worked fine. Like why? Why wouldn’t the app on my tv work? What is the difference here? So frustrating @HBOMaxHelp

  • ishaboy_z movin on up (@ishaboy_z) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp please advise, multiple playback issues

  • DJMggot1 DJ (@DJMggot1) reported

    @adudesnerdery @DCTitans @hbomax If you’re a gluten for punishment then yes. It’s not great. Poor casting and costumes don’t help the poor writing and acting. It’s ok, but tough to watch. I gave up a third of the way through 3

  • FrankHenryCoufa Frank Henry Coufal (@FrankHenryCoufa) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I’ve been trying to sign in to the HBO Max app on my iPad Mini, but I got a message saying “technical difficulties”, even though I’m connected to the internet. Can you help me with this?

  • tsnmikira 𝐤𝐢 (@tsnmikira) reported

  • ZaneIngram real_zing (@ZaneIngram) reported

    @hbomax When are you going to fix the @AppleTV #HBOMax app? It instantly crashes upon trying to access it 100% of the time for more than a week now. About to cancel my account since I can’t watch anything.

  • SquidRelevance Chet Steadman (@SquidRelevance) reported

    @DumasMike @Lions @hbomax He did? We finished second worst in the league?

  • EricLawrence719 Eric (@EricLawrence719) reported

    @hbomax you are so horrible. Absolutely never work reliably. Turn it off. Refresh the internet. Sign out. Sign on. Never reliably work and twice the price of every other service that actually work reliably

    @HBOMaxHelp - After fumbling around for 45 mins with @hbomax on my tv trying to get it to work & not buffer while watching Dune, I had to just play through Air Play and it worked fine. Like why? Why wouldn’t the app on my tv work? What is the difference here? So frustrating.
