    @FlightAttendant @hbomax I can only watch episode 1 the rest of the episodes are missing, any help? Its through Xfinity.

  • ajwooster Andrew J Wooster (@ajwooster) reported

    @DevlinWilder @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax That’s crazy man. Sorry to hear that, that’s a tough issue to fix though, hard to pin down what’s causing it.

  • ckgrabo Christine Grabo (@ckgrabo) reported from Chandler, Arizona

    @HBO @hbomax Why can I watch #TheFlightAttendant on my phone app, but cannot find it on the TV channel?? #Help

  • _plant_basehead Jason D (@_plant_basehead) reported

    @stevland_ @hbomax @amazon I don’t have these issues with it. Strange

  • guttercleaning3 Affordable Gutter Cleaning Service. (@guttercleaning3) reported

    @hbomax i would watch it more but I just don't. It's a pain in the *** to chrome cast it. I would rather roku it. So I canceled. Sucks. But I just don't like the hassle anymore. Work your issues out hbo. Everybody else can stream it on roku. You guys are a bunch of greedy pucks

  • scrundiff Steve Scrundiff (@scrundiff) reported

    @hbomax Awesome. You charge me $70 and then send me a bunch of emails to verify email that DO NOT WORK, leaving me stuck waiting for support to call, which is already 12 minutes late and on top of it all, I can’t link to Prime after signup so I have to buy a chromecast. grrrrrr

  • c0astalliberal a smol bitey gremlin (@c0astalliberal) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It does work, and it forces updates on the app. It doesn’t matter though, I cancelled it. Honestly most of the reason is bc of HBOMax not being on Roku, and we’re not replacing all of our Rokus with new ones for HBO. This is just a mess.

  • GhostFceTV GFTV (@GhostFceTV) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @HBOMaxHelp i need someone from your technical department to actually look into it. I’ve done all the troubleshooting you suggest on the help page. ive tried 4 different devices to sign in @comcastcares xfinity couldn’t help said it was an issue on your end

  • miguelocom21 Miguel (@miguelocom21) reported from City of Saint Paul, Minnesota

  • jaimechandra Jaime Chandra (@jaimechandra) reported from Orlando, Florida

    @HBOMaxHelp Your troubleshooting is funny. Really, your app needs help & the search needs fixed.

  • jinendra_sashan JSD🇱🇰 Associate Spartan (@jinendra_sashan) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I need your help

  • BabaOTownshend Happy Jack (@BabaOTownshend) reported

    @frazer_brett @FlightAttendant @hbomax I am having the same issue, not sure why.

  • cleric7 Lakers in 6 (@cleric7) reported

    @hbomax the search option stopped working on my Samsung TV with your app about two weeks ago, your tech support was zero help. good job

  • jonisaacjackson Jonathan Isaac Jackson (@jonisaacjackson) reported

    @michaelmnola @wbpictures @hbomax Not necessarily. That theatrical BS was failing anyway. But, I agree that this is the best article on the subject. "But the industry has done itself no favors by offering terrible customer service...". They have some of the worst customer service in comparison to price.

  • candacedwrites Candace D Patrick (@candacedwrites) reported

    @CreativeK @hbomax Yes, please! It’s an okay work around but I like to be able to switch through my streaming services without switching my TV input.

  • connie_blodgett Connie B (@connie_blodgett) reported

    @lilsister7 @HBODocs @hbomax She had a nervous breakdown and a thyroid problem. I think her dad or her aunt said it.

  • Dypiangco Stephen Dypiangco (@Dypiangco) reported

    The sign up process for @hbomax is so frustrating. And then trying to access content on my tv, especially without @Roku, is awful. This is one of the worst subscription sign up experiences I’ve ever had.

  • GhostFceTV GFTV (@GhostFceTV) reported

    @hbomax @HBOMaxHelp @Xfinity i cannot link (or sign in) using my Xfinity primary account. When I do log in it brings me to xfinity asking me to pay for HBOMax but I’m already subscribed and tech support at xfinity said I need to contact HBOMax this is crazy PLEASE DM ME

  • thelindameyer Linda Meyer (@thelindameyer) reported

    Watched #BabyGod on @hbomax and oh MY god. I just... I just can't. This world is too fkn much. So many terrible men reigning terror on this world.

  • GhostFceTV GFTV (@GhostFceTV) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah been there done everything that says. Not working

  • intellichick Charity (@intellichick) reported

    @MissJazzyEmily @TheKaleKid @hbomax Not sure if you've resolved this but I have a UN40MU6300 with the same problem. I was able to delete the app and reinstall it. I think my TV ran out of space and couldn't install the update normally. Now it's working fine.

  • realHarryBrand Harry Brand (@realHarryBrand) reported

    @ATT @hbomax #ATTInternet is the WORST 💩

  • Gbaronscout Guy Baron (@Gbaronscout) reported

    @hbomax has some serious buffering issues. Streaming quality is awful. Is it a CDN problem or something else. Great content, well done but there’s some technology debt here for sure.

  • GhostFceTV GFTV (@GhostFceTV) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Yeah been there done everything that says. Not working

  • DomardDavid david domard (@DomardDavid) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax it would be get if i could login but i guess not cause your app just doesn’t work
